Can anyone recommend a cheap supplier of marabou jigs? I am looking for black/chart in 1/32, 1/64 & maybe smaller. thanks

Honestly, the bass pros and cabelas of the world will have these cheaper than most tiers can. They aren't made as well anddon't last as long, but of cheap is your goal, then that's your best bet.

I tie both Hackle and Marabou jigs and to be honest the Hackle is much faster because of the way I tie marabou so they are not any cheaper and have long thought they should be higher really! The only way to tie that fast and cheap in the USA is to tie in the whole feather and just cut off what you don't use, but I pull the barbules off the stem and stack it until I get enough, then pinch where I intend to cut off the poor end and tie it in. I only use the thinest stems in ever so maybe 5% to 10% of mine will have any kind of stem in them. The stem will cut down the action some and why I don't use them most of the time.
I am not looking to tie any, but just telling the truth of mine and ekahle1 is accurate in his statement. All that stuff is tied in China or some other country like Haiti for example and not the best tying jobs! However if you want cheap jigs, then that or Walmart the kind of place you can buy cheap marabou jigs!
