Savings promotions and discount codes were better for the customer before the game changed to the current rewards program. Now I cross shop other vendors many times have better pricing.

I contacted the company via online chat. I had fantastic service. I could tell right away that I was actually chatting with a knowledgeable person located in the United States. I got a quote that was delivered to both my email as well as an account I created on the site. I started to initiate the purchase when at the last minute, I realized that I had given the wrong dimensions. I called the company and asked for the person with whom I was chatting. Guess what? That person, I think her name is Sharrell, spoke with me, made the adjustments and resent the quote. The product arrived within days. It arrived packaged perfectly. And speaking of perfect, it was. In fact the ent.ire experience was perfect (with the exception of my measuring skills). This is my third order from Online Metals over a several year time-frame. Each experience was fantastic
Terry, thank you so much for sharing your kinds words and for being a valued repeat customer. We're thrilled to hear Sharrell provided you with excellent service and that the process was smooth from start to finish. Supporting like you means the world to us, and we’re always here whenever you need!
The orders are always delivered once I stopped going through the parts department. 😉

Thank you for your feedback—we’re glad the aluminum tubing arrived promptly and met your expectations exactly. If you ever need any assistance or have specific requirements in the future, don’t hesitate to reach out. We look forward to supporting you again soon!
I needed a boom for a small sailboat. The $75 price quoted by Online Metals for a custom cut pice made it a trivial piece of business for them, but they made it right up their alley and happily filled my order. And their price is half of what I could find anywhere else. For me, it was a great deal. Now I'm ready to go sailing again.
Michael, we're thrilled to hear that the custom boom met your needs so perfectly and was a great deal for you. Thank you for choosing us and for your kind feedback—it means a lot, and we're here to support you whenever you need great-quality metal supplies. Wishing you many fantastic sailing adventures ahead!
Received a. 100" piece of 24" x 36" sheetmetal in a timely manner. It was well packaged, but one corner was still somehow slightly damaged. Also, the cut was not very square. It was off probably 3/16" over 24".
Hi Jeremy, thank you for bringing this to our attention—it's disappointing to hear the sheetmetal piece didn’t meet your expectations. We take quality seriously and would like to make this right by organizing a replacement or discussing a solution that works best for you. Please feel free to reach out directly so we can address this promptly.
