I quit doing business with Victor Machinery Company for machine shop tooling and supplies when they started making outrageous shipping charges. I can get virtually the same Chinese made tooling on Ebay without paying a ridiculous surcharge for the privelege of being able to pick up the phone and talk to some sarcastic dude from Noo Yawk (or maybe it's Noo Joisey) if I need to discuss something!

I am fortunate that there is a really good machine shop supply place a couple exits down the 84.
