Good morning Kestrol. I'll buy from them sometimes if I'm out by my brothers. Oil or transmission fluid in 5 gallons has been pretty good, as is fence paint. Fence gates, Cat 3 drawdar, 3 point auger. I've found that I can get wooden fence posts and cattle or horse fencing cheaper at the lumber mill.

What I have noticed though is that a lot, and awful lot of their goods are made in China. Forget about chain and hooks for instance, not safe in my book. Reminds me of Menards from that aspect. My sister and brother came over one day w/a new 1/2" drive ratchet from there one Sunday. Said can never have too many of them, and they're right I suppose. I asked what they paid for it, and don't recall how much, but whatever it was told me made in China, worth crap. But I tried it on some loader bolts, and it kept popping out of gear. I didn't say anything, just set it off to the side and used another. It got buried after they left, and is a concrete pad over it now. Its not that I'm ungrateful, its that I don't want my knuckles getting split wide open and have to throw that thing and break anything else. It's in a very safe place now, for all of mankinds sake and anything else that it would've bounced off of.

I guess that its like everything else and depends upon what you want, need, and will settle for on a lot of their stuff.
