You can buy BJDs many places but most are English websites of companies in Asia. When you buy from Asia the shipping is more expensive (can be $45+) and it can take weeks and weeks to get your BJD.
If you are in the US and can find one you like at a US reseller (they usually can also order other models of the companies they carry) then the shipping will less expensive.
Note - buy a whole BJD (head a body together). Mixing one company's head and another's body is for experts. Necks vary in size and resin colors between companies vary quite a bit.
I have bought BJDs from both of these US resellers and I know they usually only show what is in stock:

http://www.denverdoll.com/
I have not bought from this one:

Nor this Canadian one:

If you want to buy from Asia, then on the right here is a list of links to more info for most of the BJD makers. Not all sell to the US and a couple only make heads.

Notes: The following are not resin and not BJDs: 21-27cm Volk plastic dollfies, 21cm-large Obitsu. the following are BJDs but some are not resin and none of them are allowed (not even in resin) on the biggest BJD forum Den of Angels: Delilah Noir, Creedy, Goodreau. Also any BJD sold as a fashion BJD is not allowed, nor are BJDs that don't have the Asian BJD look (usually non-Asian BJDs)
