Chess set/boards/pieces -> Where to buy

Where is a good place to buy a complete board/pieces/or set in Canada?
i'm looking at Staunton (wooden). As for size of pieces (king) anywhere from 3"-4"

I'm looking at a few places, but I figure you guys will know best. Anything I should look out for? Thinking I'll buy a board to finally play OTB games with people I've been training to beat 😉

I bought a board from http://www.thechessstore.com/ once. They sell primarily on the internet, but I lived close enough to go in an pick up the board. I found them to be knowledgeable and friendly. They had an office, warehouse, and a few employees so it felt like I was dealing with a real business.

thanks, has anyone dealt with The Yipperoo Company Chess Store?
http://www.yipperoocompany.com/

I know about thechessstore.com but it is in the states and thus extra $$$ for duties.
