The Metal Store™ Official Website | Free Delivery PS7+ | 1 Free Cuts is pretty good for sectional stuff, not so great for bright mild steels or alloy steels, delivery is free over £75 and i recommend em highly!!
Aluminium Warehouse is pretty good for a lot of aluminium profiles and sections - cut plate but are not so great on the stainless but are very good - the best online i have found yet for steel ERW if its a size they do, use to be great and fast, seam a lot slower these last few months delivery wise anything upto nearly a fortnight which in my worlds kinda painfully long, but hey i still buy from them? maybe a victim of there own success of late here is hoping they can catch up??
Jenkins Steel Online Metal Supermarket is who i normally go to for smaller cut length specific grade stuff in bright, everything from them has been first glass, really nice material, they do a lot of En** flavours in a pretty wide range of sizes both round, flat, square bright and black and have a wider range than listed on there site, hence pop em a email with the specifics and they are great to deal with. Not sure how they compare cost wise, but unless you need full lengths this is one of the few places to offer what they do to my knowledge grades wise?
Steel Tube Direct | Buy Steel Tube & Steel Pipe are the people if you need to match a asshole odd ball tube size, my goto for 14mm ERW which is akin to unicorn shit at the best of times. If it exists in tubular form these guys can get it. Not the cheapest, but they don't leave you feeling like you have been badly violated either unlike
www.*******.co.uk!!
www.metalmaniauk.com also a good source, pretty wide range, but not so much alloy steels, but very much cut to length odd bit specialists.
www.directplastics.co.uk Are my goto non metal supplier, great stuff and first class 100% Reliable fast delivery service. price always seams very comaprable - better than other sources every time i have gone comparison shopping too.
None of the above are probably the people to goto if your after anything by the lorry load, but if your after anything upto 50 of 3m lengths they have all done me well in the past, all of them do a really nice job on the packaging too. Several places i have tried over the years have not made the above list, but the usual disclaimer, im just a customer of the above, they are there because they have done a good job thats all.
Now if only i could find a fucking laser profilers that would stick to delivery deadlines, online qouteing (if you need 3 days to fuck with it to work out a price, sorry my customers have moved on already, i need a price and having a customer on the hook asap, i often qoute shit in 5-7 different material flavours and quantities and often late at night - early in the morning) My compertition works 9-5 i work 24 hoursits my edge. equally my experience of places doing there own qouteing of my work is they fuck up so much on material thickness or finishes its unreal, much rather just do the leg work myself through something like IP lasers online customer portal) and sensible pricing (not cheapest though but you can fuck off if you think im paying a £50 rapid - drop everything and rush surcharge for a 5 working day delivery (yeah over night rush thats fair but 5 days, goto work you lazy bastards and do some work!!) must do aluminium in all grades, stainless in a mixture of grades and lots of finishes and wrap the stuff so it all arrives here with out being spread across the couriers van or dented to fuck. Cut well enough they dont need to employ a army of gorillas wielding angle grinders on what was spouse to be nicely cut profiles (if i want shit profiles i have a plasma for that. Oh yeah and not hit me with a £30 surcharge for a non industrial premises delivery of sub 10Kg in weight (ie dont use drop kick tuffnels as there main and only delivery agents) IN return im looking to place around £1K of cutting a month and if i could get what i truly need and 5 day turn around fucking reliably that could be more like 2-3K a month come next year. Oh yeah and im paying upfront, either the point i click order or the point the lazzy wanking office staff send me a payment link - invoice with the bacs details.
All i want a supplier i never see, i never have to call, i just want to upload my profiles select the material get a price and order, pay for it and have it arrive within a known and stuck too time line under 10 working days, possible exception for the occasional break down - bad weather. I dont even want - need credit or 30 day terms, am happy with the simplicity of money upfront, I send em profiles all the details + money they send me quality parts + on time is that really asking too much??
. Theres Parkers / West yorkshire steel etc, ive not rung em yet. I only need small quantities atm but hey you never know down the road. 
. First up I guess is try restarting or logging on from another computer, see if youve the same issues. If that doesnt resolve ill msg milacron for you np.
