Not really. Not when you consider that their prices are simply so high that
they can afford to offer "free" shipping. I'm quite familiar with this bunch
through my brewing activities. When I put together my keg fridge, I had to
mail order a lot of stuff like shanks, faucets, lines, etc. Here's some
comparative pricing (all in US dollars):

A faucet shank assembly costs $38 from B3 as it is commonly known. I paid
$24.
For a 3-way gas manifold B3 wants $37.50. I paid $22.
A draft system cleaning kit sells for $44 at B3. I paid $35.
A CO2 regulator from B3 is $55. I paid $37.

Still think it's free shipping? Of course, my kegging order has nothing to
do with winemaking supplies, but I'll bet if you hunt around you will find
better deals, even if you have to pay shipping costs.

Now, shall we talk about that free roll of film you get with your
developing... ;-)

PS If any brewers out there want to know where I got my stuff, the company
is http://www.simgo.com/ OK, the web site is atrocious, you'll have to call
for prices and they are in Canada. Still, probably save you some money.
