Me too. I order stuff late Saturday evening and often have it on Monday. I've been buying from them for well over forty years. I sort of miss the 'big yellow catalog' but their website is always updated and accurate.

If I order by 10:30 in the morning, I usually have it later the same day. Amazing what they have in stock.

Yet Amazon can't send anything within five days UNLESS you pay extra for Prime...

I hate them more every day.

I was a systems engineer at a Department of Energy facility and McMaster-Carr was my go to pace to find most of the parts I needed. The best part was that I could download the CAD file and directly plug the part into my CAD drawing. It saved me loads of time.

I've often thought about how useful a place like McMaster-Carr would be to a musical instrument repairman. I'm sure it's a great resource.
