I've been gaming "D6" games since around 2007. Warhammer Fantasy, 40k etc... Ever since I started playing I heard of "dice screwing you" etc. I didn't pay much attention to it until I noticed some dice consistently rolling 6's or 1's etc... After some time I started noticing some people in tournaments that I was attending using pretty big dice and I asked them what was up with that. Anyways, I was finally introduced to casino dice. I wasn't sure where to get them but one day I ran into this http://www.midwestgamesupply.com/retail.htm
Their customer service was good! You can't really do the "shopping cart" thing here. I ended up filling out a request information form and got an email within 24 hours. You can reach the form by following the link above. I still roll like crap sometimes but at least I'm closer to being sure it's less likely to be the dice which honestly gives me peace of mind.
I think the overall stigma is that these dice are very expensive and that it is less feasible to roll a bunch i.e. 10 genestealers on a charge (as if the 10 stealers would ever get there but I digress). That's probably true and when I play those armies I'll probably have no choice but to revert back to using "lesser" dice. However, for Warmachine/Hordes they are working out pretty well.
