Third order from here

I ordered three rolls of different wire from Nassau and they all came as exactly what I wanted, at the lowest price,
and received within a week. Buy your wire from here!

Good wire

Product arrived packaged well, exactly what was described. Shipping was 3 days later than posted, but I do not blame Nassau electric for that.
