    Saw they're having a fire sale on Instagram. Never been myself but planned to go next time I was in the area given the recommendations here and the great selection (last time I looked anyway they had the industrial arts triple, impact wrench, for example, plus a great distributed selection including prairie bourbon Paradise). Seems a shame they're going as the prices seemed fair. Figured I'd mention it though as it's often recommended as a visit for people driving through the area.

    Damn - I've been going there since I finally gave up on Cable. I think I'll stop by today for one last go.

    Man, that's a real shame, but thanks for the heads up. I guess the writing was on the wall since he was empty every time I went despite being a good little shop. Wrong store for the area, I guess, but credit him for trying anyway.

    Everything in a store is distributed. :slight_smile:

    I guess I should've specified, more widely distributed. That particular triple was primarily NYC/NYS around the brewery and parts of LI. Southern NJ had none. The bourbon Paradise by comparison was around in very limited fashion but technically present. Fair enough critique though.

    I did. Last time there, I just got so fed up with the piles of beers falling down into the aisles, the guys not able to find anything, etc.. that i just walked out without buying anything. They used to be my go-to, but I just cant deal with the chaos there any more. It used to be endearing but now it's just annoying and unprofessional. Plus there's plenty of other places now that carry everything I need. IMHO
