Green Screen Store?
I'm in the market to purchase a green screen (not to build one--unless hanging some wrinkle-free green fabric at the local sewing store works). What reliable online store offers one at a reasonable price? I'll be using the DVX100 and possibly a HD cam down the road.

You would have to provide your own frame (or staple to a wall, board, etc) but Rosebrand has some inexpensive fabrics for this such as Polymuslin which is 10 feet wide:

Check out EEFX.com.
Their fabric lays out flat. And any wrinkles will relax out fairly quickly. The surface also has a texture that makes it easier to light evenly.

I guess what it comes down to is this: where do you pros buy your "green screen" or green screen material? Thanks for the replies. It's appreciated.

I don't know what the pros use, but I bought large sheets of bright green fabric from a fabric store for 25 bucks and hung it outside on a sunny day to film. The results are in this video:
