| Where do you buy your best turtle necks, and how much for? |

I don't think turtlenecks are ever coming back. They left for good in 1993.
Scarves are a better replacement for cold weather neck-coverage. |

Same here ... turtrle necks looks good if it fits right and made of right kind of materials... and oh so comfy for winter!
See talbots and Ann Taylor, I like their quality. You also want to see Macy's for variety. |

If Rick Owens and Stella McCartney make turtlenecks, they can't be entirely passe.

| turtleneck sweaters are ok. turtlenecks inside, say, a cardigan - that look is gone forever. |

21:14 here--I've found that some of the ones I've bought at Macys tend to shrink quite a bit, especially in the sleeves... |

| I love turtleneck sweaters. I haven't worn a regular turtleneck shirt in many years, but I have bought a few of good quality for my mother at LL Bean. |

Turtlenecks *may* possibly work, depending on what else someone has going on. You need other accessories to avoid looking so bulky. I think turtlenecks rarely work on someone who isn't very skinny, or has a large chest. You have to be pretty lean to pull one off.
This can work, since she pairs it with a cute haircut, and big hoop earring to avoid looking so stuffy up top. 
This is never, ever a good look 
These are also ok: 
This is a NO

| Turtlenecks emphasize imperfections of the jawline, so after 40 I had to transition to scarves... |

| As a petite woman turtlenecks just eat my head. I can't stand them. I have a few from jcrew that are very tight and thin (called tissue T's I think). They look good under dresses. |
