[Jukebox-list] McMaster-Carr

[Don]

Hello All,
Just yesterday I got an email from McMaster-Carr, my favourite source of mechanical odds and ends.
It said the small order I had placed the evening before could not be sent to me in Canada. Reason was as follows:
Thank you for your order.  Unfortunately, due to the ever increasing complexity of United States export regulations, McMaster-Carr can only process orders from a few long-established customers in Canada. We sincerely regret any inconvenience this causes you. 

I called back and found out that it wasn't only the export regs but also the fact that McMaster management has made a policy of cutting off people like me who buy only once in a while and even then in small amounts.

Has anyone on this list had similar treatment from McMaster-Carr ?
