  • Any other magnet sources?

    I've received quotes from EA, Allstar and Dura. So far EA seems the most resonable for price, but I have to buy about 500 of each (they won't mix and match lengths). Allstar will mix and match, but their price is 50% higher than EA. Dura, forgot it. Any other favourites?

    Magnetic Hold

    Magnetic Hold has good prices, smaller quantities are always going to be higher, Allstar is into reaming the hobbyists on small quantities, but if you're in a hurry and they have it in stock they are often the last resort for me. MH is the nicest I've found to deal with so far........

    Who is EA?

      EAMagnetics The prices are decent. Eg. 1k at $0.32 per. IF you could handle 10k, they're $0.18. Best I've found so far. But want to find others before I buy a large lot.

          AZ

          there is also AZ magnets, google them, they are on the east coast somewhere I think, I never used them but some like their stuff. They didn't seem to be too good at doing email when I got a quote but I think they are getting better at it....

            east coast.

            Heh.

            If Bill Clinton had known there was Atlantic Ocean waterfront property in Arkansas,
            he'd never have bought Whitewater real estate.

            AZ Industries is very cordial over the phone.
            I don't think they're comfortable with the
            internet but their service was just fine.

                Possum, thanks for mentioning Magnetic Hold. Got a quote from Shea (nice guy) and they have the best price so far for 500 piece lots.

                  Shea is a prince of a guy, man he ships stuff to me BEFORE I've paid for it, try to find anyone that does that these days. sometimes it takes me a week to get to the bank and get a check cut and he is the nicest guy. With most chinese magnet companies really getting their shit together and being trained by US magnet buyers, I think alot of what each supplier sells is very similar, so I say go with the nice guys.

                          AZ industries are very willing to get your business. They told me that they have American made and Chinese made magnets with prices to reflect. They seem quite willing to give you the right thing rather than some shit they couldn't pass off on someone else.
