Anybody have experience with these guys? http://www.ampmart.com/

I looked them up and some guys said they had slow shipping and hit-or-miss service. I'm mostly looking to get them for hardware stuff like a chassis, etc.

I've looked at their site a few times and plan to buy one their bassman chassis and turret boards, some other small parts polyester film caps etc. I'd stay away from the full kits with transformers, buy them locally.
I haven't got beyond looking though. You have to contact them for a shipping quote. I don't know how they accept payment, might be a deal breaker for me.
What are you looking at?

pretty much just the 5e3 chassis

How small of a budget are you on? I have no experience with Amp Mart but have always been pleased with Triode Electronics. Unfortunately I have only bought small parts and transformers from them, so I can't speak for chassis quality.

Their 5E3 chassis is quite a bit more expensive but I think this is a case of getting what you pay for. I most definitely could be wrong though.
