And for the West Coast the (rather) clear winner is...
McMaster Carr.
I just put together a seventy-seven dollar order that should qualify for no-fee shipping. I believe they have a plant in the Southeast.
I hope I live long enough to take advantage of such a diverse inventory. The danged LED chip screws are 3.5 x 4.0 millimeter. Sorta tough to find down here.
Thanks for all your input! I really went through every site adding lists, and noting shipping charges. But frankly it was the absence the unavailability of key fasteners that swayed me. Some sites are easier to navigate than others.
