Do they sell to the average joe ? Or just to other companies ?

I have used these people to buy things for my shop, great resource. I dont know why they would not sell to an individual they have no min. order. I alway get stuff within 1-2 days. Recently I could not find anyone who had a piece of Phenol (in a small chunk) to make my torque tube bushings as per Scottlys post. These guys had all different kinds, just what I was looking for. Very easy to open account online, look up stuff and order, pay by credit card and just like that UPS shows up. Whoda thunk ???

I was just checking. I thought I read in the forum a post by someone saying that you had to have a corporate account.


Thanks for clearing that up.

I wrote that Grainger makes you have a corporate account.
