All-

     The list pulls through again. Rarely do you get a  complete answer from one lister, but you will, eventually.

     There are two stages to the Loctite website re: local  outlets. The first stage said the closest FULL LINE retailer was 100 miles away  in Ohio. The second stage said the closest retailer who STOCKED WHAT I WANTED  was less than 1/2 hour drive away. I called them, and they have 5 bottles each  of all the differing sizes of 620 in stock. 

     I can make the round trip for less than $5 in gas, and  since I'm on vacation, who cares about the time? It's a matter of  principle.

      Compare this to MCS's $10 HANDLING CHARGE. Not  SHIPPING and handling. The last time I ordered a ball mill from ACS, the price  of the tool was less than $3. My total bill was nearly $20! 

     If you walked into an auto parts store and said "I need  a turn signal bulb", wouldn't you be a little miffed if they charged you $10 to  find the bulb on their shelves, put the bulb in a bag, and ring up the  transaction?

     Like I said, it's a matter of principle. I don't  begrudge Loctite the cost of their product, but I do MCS for making the  customer pay for what is a normal cost of doing business.

Bill, when I moved to Nova Scotia 30'ish years ago it seemed that all the  stores were simply order points and actually had no stock. Usually by the time  you had something in your hands it was yours with no possibility of returning it  at all. Things got much better but now with every place trying to "cut costs"  read "maximize profit" it's going back that way. I've come to be grateful when I  can get something at all, I'm way past worrying about how much they hose me to  send it.

Does your State or Province have "inventory" taxes.  You know, where  taxes go up if you try to keep a good inventory?  One of our best customers  is in Taxxachusetts where they apparently have big inventory taxes.  Their  orders to our plant die around November and stay dead through inventory time at  the end of the year, then explode the first week in January as they try to make  up for lost time.  I assume the State tax policy causes this.

<?xml:namespace prefix="v" /><?xml:namespace prefix="o" /><![endif]-->  Bill, now that your blood pressure has gone down some, let me 'splain  something. Loctite is chemical stuff. By virtue of the wisdom of the feds,  chemical stuff may or may not be shipped as benign stuff, or hazardous stuff,  treated similarly to bichloro-trichloro-polynasty, If somebody with more  authority than sense designates Loctite as hazardous, unfriendly, or even yucky,  they can make the shipper (and the buyer) jump through all sorts of  hoops.  And their justification is  (deep breath, now) "Because I'm from the  government, and I'm here to help you."  Loctite ain't the only stuff  treated like radioactive doo-doo. Try buying a little half-ounce squeeze tube of  the brightly colored paint you use to put a dab on nuts and cables to telltale  if they slip.

If you can use Loctite 271 instead, I found it at Orchards for $7.00.  
	


This was for a very small tube.

Paul-

     I didn't know a tool that's essentially  a fancy drill bit was a biohazard. I don't have to calm down- I already made my  decision not to do business with MCS, which is why I asked for and received help  from listers who actually read their compadres posts without preexisting bias.  Thanks, JDR.

For sure. See latest- can't believe a simple question could bring such a  reponse.

Hello All:

  

 I just checked the MSC website and they have Loctite 620 in three sizes,  the 10 ML bottle (at) $16.49 order no. 97116891.  If you go to: www.mscdirect.com  you can search with  the order no. and it will come right up.

  

 I'd suggest buying the BIG bottle; 250 ML for only $154.70.

  

 Regards,

All-

     I bought the 50ml bottle from a local  distributor listed on the Loctite website for $44.71. This should be enough  for 1, possibly 2 engines. They had the 10ml bottle for $14.50, but you're going  to need more than one.
