Just what it says, I'm in AZ and what is the best price anyones paid for it?
 
Those guys suck!Call Southwest steel(23rd ave/Deer Valley) or also Interstate(15th ave/Hatcher)!Alot depends on what diameter/wall thickness your looking for.

There's a local Metal Supermarket here and I've found DOM for less at other suppliers. There plate was a very good price though, kind of hit and miss. Best to check around.
 
Looking for 1 1/2" OD x 1/4" wall x 1" ID DOM

That should narrow it down :D

I've always shopped at Tube Service Co. and felt sufficiently violated afterwards.
You mean there's a better place!
 
What, they didnt use any lube Greg?:D No reach arounds?:D :D

How much do you pay Greg if you wont mind telling me, or do you get a discount to where you cant say?
 
I have been raped twice by Metal Supermarkets because I was impatient and wanted box metal on a Saturday. Shop around. That place sells by the inch and it ain't cheap.

I pay full price but I can buy it and charge you more if you want :D

I don't remember what the $/ft was but I got 1.50x0.25" and 2.0x.25".
I think theon actually found a cheaper place and it was on the east side too. Tube Service is like Jefferson ro something down by BOB
 
I pay 3.48 for that, in a "one-stick" (20-22ft) quantity......

my price drops for larger quantities.....

I've seen some whack price quotes on the jeep forums...
 
1.5" x 0.125 wall - 10 sticks $1.87/ft delivered by EMJ out of Chicago thru Denver to Ft Collins

Local metal supply wanted $3.25 for exactly the same stuff, no delivery. That was best buddy price too, lube included. Their supplier is EMJ.
 
Matter of fact, EMJ was the best price for me here (EMJ-Hayward,CA) also, much better pricing on DOM than M Supermarkets. If you can find one in your area, check it out.
 
grant, this will piss you off.....

The last time i ordered a small bundle of 1.5 dia .120 wall, 10 pcs. of 20' A513DOM, my price was 1.48 a foot.

these prices are fresh (10-31)

this is from Chicago tube and Iron

Central Steel was 1.55 a foot,

Jourgenson was similar, and was price delivered.

delivery isn't a big deal anyway since we're in the city.

It saddens me to see my fellow fabbinbitches get so screwed.
 
Beez, this is going to piss YOU off:

Last time I ordered 1.5 x .120 DOM, I payed $1.10 a foot. This was 500 feet.

This is in BFE, and we do have an account.

CRASH
 
I cannot believe the price fluctations even from the same supplier. to me $1.97 is not too bad considering we are a small shop an hour from Denver. And the DOM (same specs as yours Beez) came from Chicago.

Am I correct that the EMJ plant is actually in Indianapolis somewhere? I know they also have a facility in Salt Lake. so the longest I have to wait is usually a week, never a problem as deliveries are always a Friday.

and 10 or 20 sticks is a big order for us.

the cheapest I can find here in AZ is $6 something/foot. Bend over baby! is what we hear.

Greg, do you offer reach arounds? If so I'll grab 20 feet:D

Talked w/Theon last night and going to call them today. Other problems came up last night that might put my long arm project on hold......a sinkhole under my house:( Was doing the flood irrigation and all 45 minutes of water disappeared into the ground through 5 holes the size of a soda can and started to flood my basement window areas. Luckily it didnt get inside (yet) but I think all my money will be going into tearing up my yard to see how big this water sucking hole is.
 
Yes. Bring your turbo diesel, tube gets heavy.

Who wouldn't pick up their own tube?

Oh, I forgot who i was talking to.......nevermind.

it's all straight up shizzle, dawg.
