Post Online Electrical Ordering

Can someone recommend an online site or two? I'd like to be able to place an order with things like -

xx feet of 14-2 NM (or could be X rolls, box, etc)
zz single gang boxes
yy leviton 15 amp switches
kk outlet
etc

Any suggestions? I'm not that concerned with the cheapest price, more like selection, reasonable price, and customer service.

Thanks,
Dr. A>

I feel you will get the best service with your local supply house.

Lets keep this bussiness HERE !!!!
It keeps everyone employed and they will be there!!

I agree. Yes, the store on this site is very well stocked, but I would not be buying regular day to day material online. TO me that makes no sense at all.
I hate to even suggest this but, in the absence of a local electrical supply house, the big home centers do have amot of what you would need to do almost any residential job. I find them higher priced on many items, but they do have a lot.

Unless you literally live out in the sticks, shop LOCALLY.

AGREE! If you dont give the supply house your day to day business on common stock items that yes you can get at the depot...maybe cheaper......then one day, you will wake up and that supply house will be gone. You will have to drive up to the next larger city to find the items you need but the consumer retail stores will never carrry.
