I had a good experience with switchtop : http://www.switchtop.com/products , not sure if they have all you need, also https://www.novelkeys.xyz/ has a great selection.

I used the bot on Deskthority the last couple of times that I ordered Cherry switches. It's great if you live in the EU/EEA
Can we get them to build the Alps ten feet higher and get Cherry to pay for it?

In addition to the ones listed here, there are several sellers on eBay and Aliexpress as well Both KPrepublic and KBDFans have some cool stuff on their pages. Also, sennin32 on eBay has some nice stuff as well, including retooled MX Whites.

Also, if you're willing to use a proxy, TaoBao is the cheapest source for a lot of keyboard parts, including dirt cheap Gaterons :)
