[QUOTE="TheLabGuy, post: 165467, member: 126"] To be honest, I pretty much use Nowak exclusively and I didn't even know they had a website. We just email them our stuff we need...and most times if not all times its Shawns direct email. If they don't carry that exact product they have something very similar or most likely even better. We continually do cost analysis with them for equipment or certain products all the time, did it last week on a sintering oven. With suppliers, shipping is preferably 'ground' to save you and them shipping costs. It takes three days for me to get stuff from Nowak. We order once a week (tuesdays),this forces all my employees including myself to do a quick inventory of what you will need in the near future before running out. I suggest this for everyone if you don't do it because it really makes you and your staff make sure you have enough supplies to do what you need to do in the lab and save yourself next day shipping. Some folks might like Shein for this reason, but if a time arises I need something next day, I'll call or shoot an email to verify Shawn has it in stock and I will get it next day. When you start adding up your supply costs and compare it to what you would pay with that big supply monster you will quickly realize a simple inventory check once a week will save you thousands by the end of the year...it has for us.
