Any recommendations for online wire vendors?

[240sxguy]

I may try to bang out a quick MHF run to my shop before winter rolls in hard. Do you guys have any recommendations for online vendors? I am not seeing much available locally but see Nassau cable sells it for about 2.39/ft. I need about 80 feet. https://nassaunationalcable.com/products/2-2-2-4-****-quadruplex?variant=27475865763940

I always check HD and Lowes as they are generally very competitive on normally stocked stuff

That may be the best price you're going to find, depending on shipping. Wire and cable your way is over $4 per foot and my pricing at the local supply house is $3.40.

Edit: I actually clicked on the link. That isn't MHF, that is URD which isn't allowed inside a building unless it's dual rated. The description doesn't say if it is or isn't. 2-2-4-6 MHF is $4.15 A foot.

Thank you for clarifying, I appreciate it.

Man I wish I had the time to do this 2 years ago when the wire was 1/4 of the price.

I forgot to put the link to the MHF in my other post.

Is shipping included? I have to add a minimum of an hour of what I pay my helper every time we need to make a trip to Home Depot or Lowes.

Amazon Prime saves me a lot of money. I order from my desk and it gets delivered.

Shipping for 80' of cable was $25 when I checked out the estimator.

I'm able to pull power right out of my meter socket, and I could junction outside my detached garage to remain code compliant. It's hard to ignore the huge price difference on the URD. I need to figure out what the junction box would tack onto the overall cost.

I had a roof cut off the back of my house last October, so I had totally missed my window. But yeah I agree. haha
