I filled out an online order and before sending called Online to get the discount code for September so I could insert in my order. The helpful woman sales person that answered looked my account and electronically completed all that was need including the new 10% discount. She was very helpful and efficient. The materials were quickly shipped and received in good condition! Good Job!

Thanks for the feedback Al! I apologize for the hassle, we were in the process of revamping our rewards system, due to the current market. All issues should be ironed out going forward. We hope this does not defer you from doing any future business with us.

Thanks for the feedback Michael. I apologize you were not notified. When orders ship with us, an automated email is usually sent, if it is not reaching you, definitely let us know so our team can look into it. It could also be sent to your spam as well. All order statuses will also be available in the order history portion of your online account.

Poor shipping thought
February 5, 2024

Its okay, my problem is the handling of my shipping account number.
1. You shipped to arrive on Saturday. I'm not happy about that!
2. The shipper billed me twice.

Prompt but pricey
January 28, 2024

I order from OnlineMetals when I need material fairly quickly and the order is not too large. If either of these is not the case I order from Midwest Steel and Aluminum. If schedule is key, I order from McMaster. Online is sort of in the middle. I have never had a problem with material from Online and will continue to order from them as appropriate.

Depending on how much you are looking for, and what material, we can almost always offer some better pricing. Please feel free to reach out if you ever have pricing issues.
