In Response To: Great Source for Shock Cord (Randy Bertrand)

I just ordered
> 1/4" Shock Cord for what came to 3.7 cents per foot!

Ah, my math says you paid 7.5 cents/foot. Still a good price. About the same as I pay at OWF. Thanks for the info. They do have a good color selection. I would be happy to order a few 500' spools of a few colors for my own use. If anyone is interested in smaller quantities I would be glad to resell at a price which covers my expenses (shipping and paperwork - no profit, if I paid 7.5 cents/foot I could probably give it to people at 10 cents). If anyone is interested, let me know, colors, etc. and i'll give it a shot. Actually, I would be glad to pass on similar arrangements for anything else that I order in quantity, webbing, buckles, etc. since many people have no need to purchase these things in the quantity needed to get the best price. What the heck, if it doesn't cost me anything extra and I can help someone out! Grant
