I like brewmasters warehouse, they have a great selection and their grain costs are lower than my LHBS (which isnt so local)
BUT I ordered a plastic carboy and it arrived all dented. I sent it back figuring shipping damage and the second one arrived and it was just as dented! I think this is because their idea of shipping is putting it in a box with an old grain bag wrapped around it. i saw maybe 3 of those little airbags in there but they were doing nothing. I emailed them about it and I heard nothing from them. This has put a bad taste in my mouth when it comes to Brewmasters warehouse...
EDIT
I really do like brewmasters warehouse. I had a bad experience that may be linked more so to my fedex driver than BMW.

Sounds like your FedEx dude has it out from you...I order stuff from them 2-3 times a month (lately even more) and never had issues...have ordered a number of plastic buckets/caboys and 4x3g and 2x6g glass carboys...never an issue.
Also - double check the email or if anything call...Ed and the crew are generally top notch when it comes to getting back/keeping you apprised of the situation

Thanks for letting me know you had an issue. I remember a carboy being sent back, but it arrived in good condition. There is a test batch fermenting in it now. I do not recall an issue with the second carboy. We have shipped tons of them the same way without any issues.
Shoot me an email ed at bremasterswarehouse dot com and I will take care of you.
Thanks,
Ed

It's possible. the first one never made it to me but Fedex told me that it was dented during shipping. I re-read my last post and I didnt mean to make it sound as harsh as it came off. Like I said, my grain costs have gone down ever since i switched over to brewmasters warehouse.

We all try our best, which is not always prefect, but I like to think it is pretty good.

The bottle opener USB key is sweet... now I need to come up with the rest of the order 
Also Ed, thank you so much for the massive quantities of gypsum in my last order, I won't need to worry about keeping it in stock anymore (or contemplate just ripping in to my drywall and using that)

Placed my first order just 2 minutes ago with BMW....lets see how fast it gets to Chicago compared to Midwestsupplies...if they can beat the shipping times with standard shipping I found a new supplier!!
On a side note...I would like to see more pictures in the website. Seems to me that 50% of them have no image...just sayin.
