I buy mine here in Houston, Tx from EMJ metals and I see the have a Charlotte, NC location. Seems to be cheaper there than what I find online. I think I paid $4.90 per foot on the last 1 5/8 .083 I bought. I dont know how that compares, but they also deliver to me for free so I would probably pay more for that convenience.

bry-warDoes GOLDmoly take a special fill rod or pre-heat?
Is a tarriff driving up the cost even though you're buying domestic (hopefully)?

Team CThanks Guys! I will definitely check those 2 places out.
As far as the GOLDmoly, going by the local prices, you must need to use Diamond fill rod AND pre-heat in a TITANIAM oven!!

joekoolA few years ago I ordered from Dillsburg Aeroplane in Pa. Not sure where they are if they are close to you or not . At the time they were the best priced I could find, they shipped to me.
