Default Alternative to MacMaster-Carr?

They are ****ing me off. Their website has some idiotic built-in

anti-customer programming on any other online store's website, and
I do plenty of online shopping.

Is there an alternative, currently?

Thanks.


I'm assuming you are writing about McMaster-Carr.

I've never run into your issue using IE or FF.

Now if you are super fast, you might look like a bot to mcmaster. There are places that
harvest McMaster to come up with cross reference part numbers so they can sell you
something close. Perhaps McMaster is fighting back.

McMaster is the most awesome hardware site on the planet.
