Might want to try W.W. Grainger's in Bluegrass Industrial Park. I usually buy from them on-line though.

...kinda––but if you call them and ask for "New Accounts," they will usually set you up with a "John Doe Co." account, like your name + Co. If you run a farm, like I did, they will set you up on an AG account. Have a vendor's license and it's a "non-tax" deal. But your first few orders with them are usually cash on the barrel-head. Phone in the order––they give you a PO. Go to the shipping dept. and they stamp your PO ticket and tell you to go to the office, where you pay for your goods and stamp your PO "PAID." Then, back to shipping for p/u. That's been my experience with them up here in OH. Example: my local ACE hardware and big box stores wanted like $20+ for an a/c capacitor. Got it at Graingers for $4. it was worth the hassle for an old retiree like me. |
