      <content>There is kosher.com for groceries. It has a fairly comprehensive selection but the shipping costs can add up.

      <content>I've ordered from a lot of providers. For meat nobody I've tried beats Peter at www.grillerspride.com for quality, selection and price. They also know how to package your precious cargo so it arrives frozen. If price is no object then talk to the folks at Fischer Bros &amp; Leslie (www.fischerbros.com). Their meat is superb and they have some cuts that many others don't carry. Both are glatt kosher. Not everyone is so great. In their early days I had a poor experience with Aviglatt when the meat didn't arrive frozen as no attempt was made to keep it frozen. I assume they are better now. </content>

      <content>I tried an order from GoldenWest Glatt last week. Their shipping and packaging is the best I've seen so far and the shipping was the least expensive. Their staff were very responsive and professional. All purchases arrived frozen solid and clearly marked. The meat looks comparable to that from Grillers Pride. I'll post again after I defrost and eat some of their product.</content>

      <content>They only sell one type of cut per case. Do you know of any that combines a few different cuts in a master case. I would think that it would be better as you get more variety. Also maybe shipping would be less as well.</content>

      <content>I agree entirely. The lack of flexibility with GoldenWest is a problem. OTOH, they don't mark up their freight charges. They are the lowest I've seen for shipping. I've tried many providers and IMO, if you consider service, cost, and flexibility, then Grillers Pride (www.grillerspride.com) is currently the best.   </content>

      <content>Do you know where they ship to?  I sent them an e mail on Friday, but I have yet to hear back.  How much does shipping add per pound?</content>

      <content>They added the least markup to the shipping charges of any internet kosher meat provider I have used. It added less than a $/pound to the meat. I used the ground shipping option and the freezing method and packaging they used allowed the meat to arrive frozen solid. They are located in Commerce, Colorado and they shipped to my location in Kentucky. Definitely worth a try.</content>

      <content>Kosher.com starting Monday will start shipping over 15,000 kosher items worldwide. Free shipping to NYC and vicinity. see my reply to post http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/642928#4964189 .

I tried to to post it by itself but for some reason the post was removed - no explanation given - just removed. You would think that the opening of a site that ships 15,000 kosher items worldwide would be of interested to the kosher consumer - especially to those outside of the major jewish centers. Go figure.</content>

      <content>My daughter will be starting Stern this Wednesday. We were tired tonight and decided instead of going shopping at Brachs and shlepping the food/kitcen items to Stern we decided to sit down and try out "Kosher.com". Considering that shipping will be free (free NYC delivery for over $50) I found the prices to be quite reasonable. Certainly cheaper than any form of Manhattan purchase options. I have not executed the order yet and have no idea if there will be any problems, like delivery to a college dorm. The web site is quite good. Some items have incomplete info, like package size showing 0oz, but after sorting by price and looking at adjacent items and prices one can figure out what you will be getting. Most items are in place, there were some minor ommissions, like no Onion Powder, but in general not bad at all. I sure wish them luck, so far it looks real good. I may even use them to send food to my mother in Brooklyn.</content>
