Thought I'd throw this topic out to all as I'm sure many have dealt with it.
I've spent the last 1-1/2 hrs trying to find a local supplier/dealer for a FCP Surebonder HE-750 glue gun. They're a slam-dunk on-line: Amazon for $20.
What's more difficult is finding out if they're available locally. I've looked at about 8 places, through phone calls & web-site-visits. Michaels, Target, Wal-Mart, Sears, HD, Lowes, TrueValue, Ace HW, Grainger, ABC supply, White hat, Jo Ann, Hobby Lobby, Tractor Supply...OK make that 14 places, not 8. Still no joy.
Is there some search function that could help me narrow this down & save time? When I looked on Surebonders site, they list several places in "Where to buy", but that includes their small, cheap glue guns & glue sticks as well.
I encountered this same problem a few years back when I was trying to find a professional foam gun locally. Called many places to no avail. Turns out I should have looked up roofing suppliers as all three in Austin had the things!!
Perhaps there is some sort of shop bot out there that I don't know of, or some way to write a script to do this automatically or smarter than I am going about it.
Any ideas??
BTW, if you need a GREAT glue gun at a very reasonable price, the Surebonder HE-750 is the cat's meow. My cheap 40W Arrow is now Tango Uniform but never held a candle to this one I've borrowed from a neighbor.
