McMaster Carr Alternatives?

[error401]

Are there any other online shops out there that sell similar products? I've just been informed that my order this weekend can't be filled because they don't want to deal with the export restrictions to Canada.

Or any B&M stores in the Vancouver area that sell nice fasteners?

Grainger has many of the same items that McMaster-Carr carries, and they don't hide the brands from you.

Try MSC Industrial as well. Their "BigBook" catalog is a truely amazing thing to have on hand.

I got the same nonsense a few months ago. Not only that, but they won't let you pick up at the will-call either (I get to Chicago quite often). I haven't found a replacement yet.
