Roller shades for tall parlor windows?

Anyone know a source for inexpensive roller shades that are reasonably reliable? The ones we buy at Home Depot stop turning after a while. Could have something to do with the height of our windows. Thanks!

We bought 84″ shades for my mother’s apartment at de Crescenzo Bros Inc. at  6914 13th Ave in Bensonhurst (718) 680-3030.  It’s a Brooklyn-the-way-it-used-to-be type store.  Not many of them left.
