Old thread, but it's a good topic. We are in a great area for suppliers. I buy most of my vinyl and other materials from Garston. They deliver daily on their own trucks, unless it's a small order that can be ups'd. My back up is Nepco, deliver 3 days a week on their own truck. I get good pricing from both, but even if it's a few bucks more I would still use them. Supporting local distributors who carries a full line of products pays off in the end. I could get all my vinyl shipped in, but then what happens when I want sheet goods, or something thats less popular if theres no local distributors? I do have a number of others I use for fillins or brands my main suppliers carry.
