Sure do. Doubtful that it would make sense for you to pay for freight
from the Bronx to Florida, though. ;)

The one I was referring to is called Honerkamp

Another big candy store. It might be worth a phone call to see what
the damage would be or if they could recommend a place near you.

Good luck with your hunt.

That stuff is so often garbage. Even if it arrives in a store as a
decent product, the local handling, by customers and employees, often
beats it up.


To the OP, have you tried these guys?

<http://www.dixieply.com/tampa.shtml>

If they won't sell directly to you, try contacting your hardwood
suppliers and/or small local cabinet shops, and see if you can get what
you need from Dixie via them. If you have any good friends with a tax
number (retail store, etc...), you can frequently purchase through them.

My favorite local hardwood mill is up the street from a large
northeastern plywood and composite vendor. Anything the plywood vendor
has can be had the next day via the hardwood retailer.

Large cabinet or stair shops may sell from their own stock, don't
overlook them.

One last tip. If you can find cabinet shop to sell to you, be aware
they probably won't take credit cards, discuss the payment arrangements
up front.

Thanks. Wanted to let you know I went with A&M, they have a Tampa
branch. Great service. Will try Dixie next.

Yes, but you are a long way from Texas.

One additional though: What grade? The Borg sells what they call cabinet
grade. Most of the posters here want something more like A-1 or B-2.
Real finicky ones would want A-A grade.
