This is an old school hardware store that has more actual hardware than you'll find elsewhere in…read moreBloomington. They do everything from keys (including "digital chip" key clones) to vast amounts of nuts and bolts, SAE and metric, tools, supplies, home/industrial hardware. They are not Grainger or Lee's. They are not Lowes or Menards. Their prices are sometimes high, but they don't sell cheap gear. I wished they'd sell lumber and plants, but maybe it's better that they don't. They get five stars for being the best HARDWARE store in the area. You don't have to buy a huge blister pack to get just one or two of an item. Their clerks know what they have, and it's a good idea to ask them. They sometimes have better alternatives in mind, and their selection is vast for the size store they operate; they can save you a lot of time, unlike the big box stores, where there are no real specialists except the Big Item sales people. Go here first.

So, this hardware store just exists to make people's lives easier. I like how amazing the store is just to be able to buy supplies locally. They have an assortment of products such as paint, wood stain, gardening supplies, electrical hardware, and plumbing, and cleaning supplies. I really think this is a great business to go to, and the people working there are not just there to make some easy cash. Service there is pretty good. The selection is great. The value of the items you get is also terrific. Try out the store sometime!

If you can't find it at Rural King, you probably don't need it!

I told him I thought he did that and he said no I do that and he will be back tomorrow. Bottomline, it was a mess getting carpet and finishing the job (wanted to just cancel it and couldn't do that). I will never buy carpet from them again. Also, I ordered a stove and fridge there. The delivery guys took off the sticky tape and placed them on my trash bags I had laid out on the counter. I had to go out and get new trash bags because of their carelessness. Why even remove the tape and let me do it? Just place it where it goes and that is it. And don't get me started on how NOBODY ever called me back about new windows for the house. That was at least $10k sales for windows and they refuse to even call me about it. I waited 2 months and just went with Anderson. I guess my money and time is not valued at Lowes for Vincennes. They can do a lot better. It is ridiculous.
