But I am wondering what are the online stores that folks use to purchase tubular tires?

Watch for sales at Wiggle and Excel and others. Sometimes Excel has two for one deals.
And if you see a sale POST IT for the rest of us!!!

23's are getting harder and harder to find. I would not be surprised if the tire companies eventually quit making the size and just start at 25mm. Which could mean trouble for frames that have minimal tire clearance that cannot accommodate anything bigger than 23's.

Yellow Jersey's "Servizio Corse" are still a pretty good deal at $85 for three tires (used to be $50 for three). My experience is that they are straight and round, and measure 21mm wide.

I’ll second BikeInn…I received three Vittoria Rally tires from this retailer recently. Was concerned I’d ever get them as I’d never heard of BikeInn and the website felt a bit odd. But ties ultimately received in good condition at a great price!

Hadn't heard of them either but they sold me a pair of Vittoria Rubino Graphene 2.0 tubulars (28mm) for £51 each.
