To our valued customers,
In accordance with Gov. Inslee’s statewide stay-at-home measures, we will be closed to the public for two weeks starting Thursday, March 26.
This has been a difficult decision, as it’s been our goal to remain open as long as we could safely serve our community during this crisis, but this action is needed in order to minimize contact, help stop the spread of COVID-19, and keep our customers and staff safe. As we continue to monitor the rapidly evolving situation, we plan to reopen our storefronts on May 4th, 2020.
This has been an unusually active time for the metals market, and we are working hard behind the scenes to meet increasing demand. If you’ve placed an order through one of our stores, please know we will be fulfilling all backorders as swiftly as possible, as well as working to replenish our inventory during this time.
Most of all, we want to extend our sincerest apologies to our customers and thank you for your continued support during this time. Be well, take care of each other, and stay safe. We can’t wait to serve you again soon.
