I wish. Unfortunately, no. They were a west coast thing, starting in
Washington, I believe. Wonderful customer service, great selection. I
liked them so much I bought some of their stock. A few years later Lowes
bought them, and you know the rest of the story. I do most of my big box
shopping at HD now, when I have to, but 90% of my stuff comes from the
local Ace or True Value; both local stores still have a lot of good stuff.
