For risers I usually go eBay. Specifically I've dealt with this store a ton:
ACRYLIC SHEET STOCK, POPULAR SETS items in Laser Creations store on eBay!

Also CollectingWarehouse.com has a lot of options and their prices didn't seem to crazy.

Over the years I've tended towards multiple heights of individual risers. Not as clean as a step riser, but I like the increased customizability of them. That method gives me a few more options in maximizing whatever space I've got and getting the height differences I need depending on what I'm displaying.

The negatives are the multiple pieces you have to setup and adjust evenly and the gaps between risers. But I don't mind the extra little effort and the gaps aren't that big a deal since most items will straddle them or can rest on top easily.

The only big negative that I learned the hard way, is to not go too wide with one riser. It's tempting to get the 12" long riser rather than three 4" risers, but thinner acrylic will cause the midsection of a really wide piece to bow under the weight of some of the larger figures. Something to keep in mind if you go that route.
