Really!? The elusiveness of their catalogs is legendary. New ones go
on eBay for $40 - 50. Even old ones are auctioned. Why would anyone
pay $50 for one when they could "...just call or use the web to request
one"?

I had trouble getting my first one. After requesting a catalog about 3
times, and still not getting one, I told them I'd have to make do with a
Grainger catalog. I got 2 of McMaster's shortly after that, and they send 2
new ones periodically now.
