Me, too. It's a great site with as good of an interface as you could possibly dream of for a company that's selling eleventy billion products.

Whoever championed (CIO?) and executed that e-commerce deserves an award. Serious. I work with a bunch of middle market manufacturers and distributors and doing e-commerce is HARD for them. I use that site as a reference on "how to do it right", every. single. time.

At a very excessive markup. But for low quantity purchases and very high customer-is-king level of service, it's unbeatable.

In the US, if you buy specialty hardware from Amazon you probably are going to pay a markup on the markup because McMaster Carr is probably the previous source.
