Sable Wholesale: A Shopper’s Guide
Why You Should Visit
- Extensive Product Selection: You’ll find a huge range of products beyond just steel. They carry pipe fittings, hand tools, PVC (including Schedule 80), brass and plated fittings, and a wide variety of hardware odds and ends – even the hard-to-find items for commercial projects. I even found everything I needed for a home repair project. It’s like a candy store for builders and fix-it enthusiasts!
- Small Quantities Available: Need just a small amount of steel? This place offers reasonable prices even on small quantities.
- Knowledgeable and Helpful Staff: The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. They go above and beyond to assist you. I had help selecting parts for an air filter installation, matching an old bolt to find a replacement, and even brainstorming solutions for a plumbing problem. Hatchet, in particular, stands out for his extensive product knowledge.
- Fair Prices: I’ve found the prices to be fair and competitive, especially considering the selection and service.
- Convenient Downtown Location: For those downtown, this is truly the only place left to find those essential hardware odds and ends.
Why You Might Consider Alternatives
- Metal Cutting Fees: Be aware that metal cutting charges are applied. While I don’t mind a reasonable fee, I experienced a surprisingly high charge ($32) for cutting two pieces of steel. This could be a significant factor for large projects or frequent customers.
- Limited Services: While they have an impressive selection, they don’t currently offer hydraulic hose services.
