Anything that's not completely oddball they can get within 24-48 hrs from Southern California or AZ.

Does there really not exist any supplier like that in VA? 1x2x.063 is not at all a niche product.
This same supplier has got items for us from the East coast on a few days notice as well. So I imagine it goes both ways.
