WhenKittensATK Posted July 13, 2011 Posted July 13, 2011 This aircraft hobby store seems to have the cheapest U-Channel Molding I've ever seen. They also offer a lot of shipping options (UPS, FedEx, USPS, in-store pickup, and international). http://www.aircraftspruce.com $4.40 shipped for 6 feet of 3/8" U-Channel Molding. The most popular place to get U-Channel is either McMaster or MNPC Tech, which will cost you at least $5+ more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnpctech Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 I was sharing this list with a friend and amazed at how many retailers have closed since I started Mnpctech in 2001. I'm saddened how our economy has dwindled down our market, but it underlines how important it is to push your own product design and development to keep your consumers interested.

ir_cow Posted June 27, 2012 Posted June 27, 2012 (edited) It is sad but i'm usually driving away by start up companies because I want to make sure I get the product so I only use Newegg and FrozenCPU. Tiger Direct has screwed me over a few times so I'll never recommend them to anybody. edit: what zipzoomfly is gone! they always had good deals for video cards.

IVIYTH0S Posted June 28, 2012 Posted June 28, 2012 It is sad but i'm usually driving away by start up companies because I want to make sure I get the product so I only use Newegg and FrozenCPU. Tiger Direct has screwed me over a few times so I'll never recommend them to anybody. edit: what zipzoomfly is gone! they always had good deals for video cards. They did have good deals but when they denied lowering the price on an 8800GTX I believe (it was still like $400 or something outlandish) well into the 200 series generation, I could see they didn't really care about what customers say. So I guess there's the result Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
