What Jim said. I use McMaster all the time for my business. I try to hold off ordering until it's an absolute must so that I can combine shipping.
I once ordered some stuff at 9 am morning......it arrived SAME day at 2.15pm! I'll never forget that, it's a record for me.
I got some nichrome from them last fall ....in 2 days. Have been using them for 15 yrs with no complaints. Need real help, just call you will get fast friendly help looking for items or descriptions.
Yes they are an industrial supplier and geared for that, so don't expect stupid cheap shipping [ala-Amazon] BUT be amazed at all the stuff they carry & how reliable and fast they are.
Here's a copy of my invoice, you decide if it's fair, I certainly thought it was.

I started this thread a few months back. I forget what the shipping ended up being, but I remember being totally fine with it. And the metric rail was so awesome looking.
... Still haven't mounted it on a pad, though...
EdOrdered some foam pipe insulation. About $30 worth. McMaster is about a 25min. drive to NJ.
$36 in shipping. The 6ft box didnt even weigh 2lbs.
Still fighting them.
I can ship a 25lb "O" motor case to CA for that.
Ive gotten stuff that will fit in a sml box, they will ship in a much larger box to bump up shipping.
People need to to call and complain.
