These guys will only do phone orders and it takes 1-2 hours to complete. What good is that when you have a job that day? Went to Wylaco Supply down the street and they took care of me Right Away!

This location has been a joke every time I go there. Walk into a empty lobby they ignore you
Walk into a full lobby they ignore you

You can be standing in a line waiting for a order you called in and they will call up a familiar face to chat and ignore you. The guys here rather talk about who they tried to hook up with over the weekend and shove food in their mouths rather then help a customer. Have some respect for your customers and owner of the business!

I got put on a wild goose chase for some hardware for a 200 year old chest. I was almost ready to give up and came here and found not only what I needed but some of the best service around. The gentlemen who helped me had superior knowledge from anywhere else in the valley. I could list many names from large box stores to specialty furniture stores but only here did they know what they were doing. It wasn't possible to find exactly what I needed but instead they gave me options which worked out perfectly. Thank you Copper State Bolt & Nut. I will be back for sure and upon review

The guys and gals here are great they even taught me a few things about taping holes and choosing the rite tap and die. I'll only get my nuts and bolts from them. The pricing was also great.
