I had one experience with this one. I was looking to purchase something of a specific brand from them, and they wouldn't tell me what brand of the item they sold. However, they did let me play the guessing game of "Is it this brand?" "No" "Is it this other brand?" .... It was rather silly, but I got what I wanted in the end.
Aside from one other time when they were out of stock on something I REALLY needed, and then charged me to have it shipped from another warehouse, when they said they had it in stock all along, McMaster has been very good.
Aside from giving a nice big free book, I dislike MSC. Their website is terrible, and that's the primary reason I won't order from them. Also, when I called them for a quote on something (because no one in industry pays list price from MSC) there was no one available who could help me, and no one ever returned my call. I think I've ordered from MSC once ever.
