I have a large Grainger outlet a few towns over and in the
past, every time I tried to buy from them they said they only
sell to legitimate businesses and unless I had a tax number
they wouldn't sell to me. So it's been some time now and I
haven't bothered to try since they've gotten their website up
and running. I do reference their online catalog occasionally
and notice dang near everything they list is twice or three
times as much as elsewhere, that's the other reason I've never
bought anything from Grainger. But.....McMaster isn't without
fault in that respect either. You have to watch their pricing
also on some items. Priced a 3-phase reversing drum switch
from them the other day and about fell off my chair when I saw
the price. $318.64, the very same exact brand of switch on
ebay, $118.98.
Just spoofin' ya a bit guys, sweetie face and my daughter have
I-pads and smart phones, so I'm aware of their existence,
just haven't felt the need to punch another drain hole in my
retirement account. A cheap old flip phone serves my purpose
for the time being. Why...I've even had one of those old land
lines run to the house for the last 73 years and am still using it.
I'm just gonna skip over the I-pad I-phone fad. What I'm
really holding off on is the perfection of the BCI implants.
I'll jump on board when I can get one of them. By then I'll
probably need one to communicate with my android care givers.
And I won't have any need for a My-phone then either, just
think and it will dial me up.
