DOM Prices

Bump, how are steel prices for all of you now? Pattons in Palmdale, CA area was always the best pricing I have ever seen. IMS always ripped me off. Gem state metal in Idaho was in between patton and IMS pricing for a while, the dude retired, sold the business to someone else and prices immediately went 2-3x higher depending on what it was.

I personally havent seen any relief compared to 2022 prices.
 
I get quotes from IMS and my Local Pattons in Hesperia price matches BUT that's when I'm buying a large qty. I just got raped on some little 1" x .120 DOM for like $2.79 a ft.

They like to tell me that every month prices go up but that's probably a default statement to make customers not get mad that it's more expensive everytime they shop for metal.

I have noticed that the flat plate like 3/16 and 10ga has came down a little bit BUT i doubt we will see the pre COVID prices on most things again unless we get a massive correction in our economy
 
Also a few friends in LA area use Scot Industries since they deliver a couple times a week from Kingman, AZ and they say they're the cheapest around they have used. Plus you can have them cut the material to certain lengths if you use it for a production part which saves you time and money having to deal with that and easier to unload and move cut sticks rather than full sticks

LOL...here...if you're not buying in bulk (like over a grand in tubing)....1 x .120" DOM will run you over $7 a foot

Agree though. The economy is shit. Inflation from printing all this money and the accompanying debt is going to take a decade to unravel....if it ever does (which is not the way to bet).
 
400’ of 1.75x.120 domestic 1020 DOM with delivery from 40 minutes away is $5.20 a foot in KC
 
Got quoted $1,050 for 120' of 1.75x.120 DOM and two sticks of 2x3 3/16 wall

I could use some 1-1/2" x .095 cromo tube to redo the cage on my race car but I'm afraid to even call about it. :laughing:

God I hear ya....I need a shit ton of 2x.250 wall 4130 for links and I'm terrified to price it out.
 
You guys need to do a group buy, or piggyback off of somebody else's order

I'm working on a steel order for some of my own shop stock and just added 5 sticks of 1.75 to my order and it would run $7.27 / ft delivered to my place outside Zion's X Roads from the Richmond Ryerson yard and thats on a 2k lb total order including misc plate, box tubing, and some round bar. Thats just ridiculous. The last of what I have on my shelf was from 2015 and I think it was like $2.35 a foot then because we ordered like 1500 ft amongst friends.

I've bought and sold dom over the years, and regretted everytime I sold it.

Also, PM Sent
 
I bought 5 Sticks of 1.75” .120 wall dom in Palmdale today. It was $120 a stick plus tax. Kinda spendy.
 
Riverside IMS quoted me $3.32/ft for 5 full lengths of 1.5 x .120 DOM. Also $4.40/ft for a 10' piece of 1.75 x .120 DOM. This was on March 18th.
3/16 HR P&O was $1.84/lb

Yeah, IMS is usually higher than a cat's back....but that's where I recently scored good deals on 1.75, 1.5 and 1.25 in .120 wall DOM.....but only b/c I knew the guy at the counter and bought over a grand of tube to start.
