I've been buying parts from Mike's for more than 10 years without a problem. They are very good about advising when a part is on back order. Quick shipping was hardly ever an option when I was growing up in Alaska. Our freight came in once a month on Alaska Steamship Company vessels. If it wasn't on this boat, it HAD to be on the next one! I had a printing shop and had to plan my inventory for a month at a time. Now I can order paper and have it the next day. I think I preferred the slower pace back in the day.....kind of like wishing all the roads could be happy with me toodling along at 45 in my Model A.
