I've bought from them before. If you aren't sure just what you want and
want to see before you buy or get advice they're great, especially for
bulk stuff. But they cost more than you can find on the 'net.
One thing to consider when buying bulk cable is how easy it is to work
with. The kind of box, insulating material, coloring, etc. can all
affect how easy it is to get the job done. Not very easy to evaluate
over the 'net.
