Always have what i need and very fast shipping. Packaged well!
Disappointed in the rewards shift. I no longer qualify because of the short time frame to earn. I make several large orders during the year, but not within the rewards time frame. Might have to look elsewhere sadly.

Pay attention to outside party orders
March 11, 2025

One of the items for my project was sourced through an external vendor. I requested next-day delivery to meet my timeline. However, there was a significant delay in forwarding the order to the vendor, which resulted in a multi-day hold-up before the vendor even began processing it. To ensure progress, I had to follow up multiple times to confirm whether the order had been sent to the vendor. Unfortunately, this delay has now impacted my project timeline.

We’re truly sorry for the delay and the frustration it caused with your project timeline—your feedback is crucial, and we’re taking steps to ensure better communication and quicker processing in the future. We appreciate your patience and hope to better support you going forward.

All good, though shipping was expensive
March 7, 2025

Shipping costs were quite high, but the product itself is excellent! Quality, performance, and overall experience were great. Would recommend if you're okay with the shipping expense.

SS ANGLES
March 6, 2025

We ordered 2 pcs of stainless angle 6 x 6 x.375 x 2" LONG

Would have been nice if you would have made both pcs the same.

One was bang on 2" but the other was 2.125" +/-

We made it work for our application but would have been difficult to trim the one pc had we needed to to get them the same.

When ordered custom cut pcs, Would expect a trim cut done and then the 2 units cut at the same time and length.

As this was within tolerance its expectable but not great on the customer service level i expect.

Great steel - expensive shipping
March 5, 2025

Very high quality products - but they up-charge for shipping - more than it cost them to ship.

I just got this message asking if I had got my last order from you. I probably did, but I don't remember what it was that I ordered from you. I haven't gotten anything from you in the past week or 10 days, so I'm assuming that I got it. Thanks

Always great service and quick!
February 25, 2025

Even though Online Metals is over the border, it's still cheaper than buying small quantities of material from Canada. Shipping is expensive but still the overall price is awesome.

Very happy.
