Great steel - expensive shipping
March 5, 2025

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

Significantly dissatisfied about one thing
December 3, 2024

Packing for shipping was fantastic. I purchased.060 perforated sheet for speaker grills. Just one of 8 pieces had a little damage from handling (not shipping). There was a little rust as well. All that I was able to deal with. However I am knocking two stars off for not telling me the perforated sheet pieces would come with a.25 inch solid band on one side. I expected perforations all the way to the edge on all 4 sides of the cuts. This leaves a pretty annoying aesthetic issue for my intended use. This could have been more clear in the order process.

Somewhat not satisfied!
December 26, 2024

Good, upset I cant have my account terms at net 45. My customers never pay at net 30, more like 45-60 days, this creates a hardship for me and my business!

Freight Cost
September 8, 2024

Experience in order process and shipping was good. Still extremely unhappy with cost of freight that exceeded by far the actual cost of shipment.
I actually need more of the same item previously ordered but am seeking local or alternative sources due to the shipping cost. May order from Alibaba or Aliexpress if not local.

Not happy
April 6, 2025

I usually have quick turn around and pretty good service with you guys but this project cost way more than expected. Parts took alot longer to turn around and when talking to associate the shipping cost was not quoted correctly. I was under the impression shipping would cost under $100 and it ended up costing more than the mtl even though you guys took a week to get this placed I paid the price it would have cost to just get a full sheet here locally. Your site only shows $10 as shipping I am guessing this is handling fee. Either way not happy with how this was handled.

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.

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.

Quick and exactly as ordered
February 6, 2025

Ordering online was easy. I wanted to pick it up locally and when you get to the shipping portion of checkout you can do that there. Good pricing for the metal I needed and order was ready in 2 days. Pick up was a breeze.

Would like to open 30 day payment terms
February 19, 2025

Delivery was good, The problem I have had with online metals is that I was refused for opening an net 30 day payment account, We have been in business since 1980, And have always paid our bills on time or even before due date, I was given no reason why we were refused.
Sincerely

Unsatisfactory
January 21, 2025

My latest purchase of a sheet of aluminum plate left me feeling I was way overcharged. I had asked for two pieces of plate, 13"x7"x5/16"thick. I received one plate that was 26"x7", so I had to cut it in half to get what I had ordered.
The charge for this piece came to $86.19, plus $48.93 for shipping for a grand total of $135.12. I feel that is an overcharge and I will be going elsewhere for my metal from now on if that is going to be your policy.
