Poor seller communication
May 1, 2024

A piece shipped from a 3rd party seller. Never an email regarding receipt of order, if/when shipped. Called Online Metals to track after 4 or 5 days and were not able and advised they would reach out to seller and I would get info back that day but nothing. Called again next day and same thing, no information. Received email late that day just as packaged arrived. Essentially it shipped and arrived on time but I had no idea if/when it was coming, no tracking.

OnlineMetals.com attempted to help this customer through the Sitejabber Resolution Center, but the customer did not respond

Delivered fast. Purchased the sample kits as I am new to doing metal work and needed something to practice with. The different sizes were excellent to enable me to make several projects.

Responded very nicely
April 28, 2024

I ordered a 12" x 18" piece. What showed up was a 12" x 10-5/16" piece, so I called Customer Service. The lady who took the call was fantastic. Within minutes she had taken care of the situation, and I was informed that a reorder was in process. Mistakes happen. Always will. But it's how we respond that says something, and I was impressed by how Online Metals responded. The new, correct piece showed up 2 days later.

Great for the little guy
April 28, 2024

Online Metals is the place to go. I run a small one-man job shop style business and never get into large quantity jobs. They are one of the few places that will sell a small quantity of metals and they do it with reasonable prices. Shipping is always fast, and costs are not padded.
OnlineMetals.com has been a life saver for my small machine business.

I had an issue with the order I received, it didn't have a PVC coating on one side. Honestly, i didn't check to see if the brass sheet I ordered automatically came with a PVC coating, but when I emailed saying i wish the sheet was covered, They immediately send out another. No questions asked. Because of this I was able to finish my project on time without losing time buffing out all those scratches!
Thank you Sharrell!

Good stuff for my purposes
April 25, 2024

I use online metals from time to time and they work. It does take a little time to get the material but they're pretty fair priced.
