Receiving time from 3rd party
September 15, 2024

Material received days after we were expecting it, so we had to bump our customers due date and be late on their order.

Freight Cost
September 8, 2024

Experience in order process and shipping was good. Still extremely unhappy with cost of freight that exceeded by far the actual cost of shipment.
I actually need more of the same item previously ordered but am seeking local or alternative sources due to the shipping cost. May order from Alibaba or Aliexpress if not local.

Fabulous Experience
September 8, 2024

First time customer and the order came lighting fast. There was one minor mistake and when I reached out to customer service they got back even faster and took care of the problem. That replacement came even faster!

Cannot recommend more simply because of the customer service!

Exactly what I needed
September 1, 2024

I have used OnlineMetals in the past and was happy to find exactly what I needed at a decent price. Shipping was fast and the aluminum sheets I ordered were delivered unscathed mostly because they were packed in multiple layers of thick corrugated cardboard. I would definitely recommend to others.

6ft Al tubing

I received my package packed very well. Upon opening the packaging I found the contents in perfect order. The contents would not have been in good order if it was not packed well ( do to the nature of the materials ordered). Thank you. I will purchase again.
