electrathon Report post Posted August 28, 2015 This is great news! I like a lot of your stuff and have bought from you a few times, but your PDF catalog was far from friendly. This is a happy change. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JREESER1 Report post Posted August 29, 2015 Hurray for the new CATALOG!!!!! I love your stuff and can't wait until I can actually figure out what I need and a price I am certain goes with that item. Your selection of unique, and needed hardware is second to none. I do appreciate your inventory. It is great having a source that has exactly what I need, and soon I will be able to find exactly what I want, before the dementia side tracks me as I find the page, piece and a price. Thanks!. jr Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Art Report post Posted September 1, 2015 The OTB printed catalog has retained a lot of the flavor of the "old time" trade catalogs. Often parts are pictured at their actual size, making it easier to select the correct size for a project. It is a whole lot easier to select a rivet or eyelet or whatever when you have it right in front of you and can try it out, the catalog is almost as good if pictures of the parts are actual size. It is a little hard to do this on a monitor. Art Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JLSleather Report post Posted September 1, 2015 The good news over there is.. there's SO MUCH stuff. The bad news on the other hand,... there's SO MUCH stuff. Bit of a pain not having the pricing right there. I've been in there a few times, and basically don't care to find the image on one page and the pricing on another. Getting soft, maybe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been in there a few times, and basically don't care to find the image on one page and the pricing on another. Getting soft, maybe Download the catalog PDF - you can look up the product in one window, enter the part number on their order form search on the website, returns pricing, colors, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Getting soft, maybe Soon my friend...you will be able to log in to our new site with your unique login credentials....find any product and the price will be right there. We will most likely never list the prices on our catalog itself, because we often have to respond (raise prices) when we are hit with a big increase from our suppliers and we only publish (time intensive and costly) new catalogs every two years. Thanks for the feedback. Soft is ok with us Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SmokeyPoint Report post Posted September 4, 2015 That is indeed good news. I set up an account a while ago and never ordered due to reasons you are addressing. Looking forward to it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
