Has anyone used Zoro.com?

Thinking about purchasing a swamp cooler. They seem to be just the middle man in the drop ship market. Has anyone used them? I'll use my Amex for the buyer protection.

I bought about $25 worth of stuff from them. No complaints at all.

We have buyers that use them for general MRO type stuff. Recently acquired br Grainger. Good pricing.

No but I just check their website after wdfifteen mentioned here, WTF - McMaster-Carr won't ship to Canada, pretty impressive.

Well I ordered a 750$ unit and found a 20% coupon. Plus free freight. Can't beat that.

What Swamp cooler and for what purpose.

Thinking of getting one for my patio.

I went with the ADA71. It is to replace the one I currently have on the roof. It is ducted like a piggyback system with the furnace/ac unit. I'm running around 1900 sq/ft. I was looking at the smaller of the three that were at Home Depot since last fall. But with that 20% discount, and the fact Home Depot doesn't have them in stock, and will drop ship it. It is all the same.
I need to figure out how to get that damn thing on the roof. I still have a herniated disk. lol

Maybe I should have pony'ed up the extra money for the ADA7112!?

I buy cummins fuel filters from them. Good quick ship. Plus I can buy for them straight off ebay where they usually run awesome free shipping promos.

I've bought all sorts of stuff from them and am always impressed with how quick they ship.

I use them all the time. I just bought two condensate pumps with cast iron receptors from them at a much cheaper price than my local pump guy as well as Grainger. No shipping, these things are heavy!

You can't beat them. The same Grainger inventory and at a discount. They are a day or two slower shipping, as I get Grainger 99.9% next day. I get all kinds of email discount offers almost every day from Zoro. Love them!

It's interesting you mentioned that! Every time one came it it had sold to Grainger paper taped on it.

I mind as well update this thread. The first on came in within 3 days damaged. Refused and they sent out another the same day. The second one came in within the week, but ended up being a side draft. I peaked in the box a day later. (I ordered a down draft). They use UPS freight for returns and for the life of them they can't write down a address correctly. so it has been sitting in my drive way waiting for a semi to pick it up. ha
It's drop shipped so I'm fairly confident if I ordered it at my local Home Depot/Lowes I would be experiencing the same issues.
