Per line, cheapest first, before our markup. Freight is the demo carrier rate for the line alone from that dock to the site, before the site’s extras.

Supplier QC-03 (service centre) declined the whole request: No 10 ga HRPO in 48 x 96 this week.

Line 1: CS sheet

HRPO sheet, ASTM A1011 CS type B, 10 ga (0.1345 in), 48 × 96 in, 10 full sheets, mill test report. 10 sheets, 797.3 kg, needed by 11 Nov 2026.

The buyer’s name, address and email and the order’s value are never in it.

Each supplier gets its own email with its own reply address. The demo sends nothing.
