Problems At Micro Mark

Is Micro Mark having financial issues or going out of business? Every time I try making up a list of goodies every item I need/want is out of stock. It’s been that way a long time now so it isn’t due to any tariffs.

Thanks, Roger

I don’t know the answer, but I went to their website a couple weeks ago for the first time in years, since they used to send out the paper catalogs, and it seemed like they have vastly fewer offerings now…

Probably affected by the tarif issues

Have they been purchased by a larger holding company that has no idea of what to do with them? It wouldn’t be the first time a company’s been ruined after it’s been purchased by someone who doesn’t understand the business.

If they have finantial troubles is not due to the tariffs. I think Micro-Mark has prised itself out of the market. They have very few inovations and items sold under their brand name are signifi antly overpriced. Just my own opinion.

Has anyone called them to order?

I haven’t, but they’re still sending email ads, I got one today.

I agree that they have largely priced themselves out of the market in some instances. In the early 20’s I ordered a lot of products from them (5 Spectrum Decapods), tools, etc. and still do, but only if it’s a specific tool they only have or to replace or duplicate something I got through them and don’t find much cheaper elsewhere.

I still receive their product printed catalogs. But haven’t had recent ordering experiences with them. I DO appreciate the catalogs for “one stop shopping/reference”.
I too have noticed a lot of not in stock or back ordered items.

When I was on their site a couple weeks ago I couldn’t find an option to request a physical catalog/ad.:man_shrugging:
