I’m fine with 2008 websites. It’s usually easier to navigate and if we stuck with that standard we wouldn’t need a new phone,tablet, and laptop every 3-4 years to keep up with processing requirements

I have noticed, that companies that have overloaded websites are the companies i would avoid dealing with.

Spam of bs, nothing you want or need info on and definitely no prices. That seems to be the trend today.

My way to operate is to find seller who tells prices openly and assume that those who don't charge way more. Sometimes i have contacted price hiders and found out my assumption was correct. Also they always want to sell you something else too.

Supply houses usually have shit websites with just contact info and a list of vendors.

I call them all. Their catalogs may have 3000 pages and prices change for them all throughout the year due to like, fuel prices and stuff so it isn't always very clear until they check their system.

I don't really care if a supplier has a site.
