Avoid this website for High Impact Poly Styrene

Post by Neildo_64 »

A while back I bought some plastic from http://www.professionalplastics.com and I just got it after waiting weeks. I bought 7 sheets at 18" x 24" and the price was ~$33 without shipping. They won't tell you shipping charges until AFTER you buy the plastic and then you just have to wait and see how much money they take. Shipping alone was $35 :shock: . For that money, it should have been at my house within a day or two. Just figured I might save somebody else from getting raped on shipping from this place - I mean, really, $70 for 7 sheets of plastic??. What are some other sites you guys buy plastic from?

I buy from some of the places listed here http://www.thebestcasescenario.com/modw ... _Suppliers. They have all been confirmed to be good at some point in time by a forum member.

For some reason, indplastic.com won't work for me. It won't take my credit/debit card or my parents' or any other card I've tried, but that seems to be the best I've found (if it would work...).

I trust you won't make that mistake again Neildo_64 - bottom line is never buy anything without knowing what the final price will be, including postage. If they won't tell you, terminate the transaction.

Mouser.com does the same thing and I like it. Never over pay for shipping ever.

Oh does anyone have a good website for ABS plastic?
