Possible Buy

[doodlebugs]

I am kind of just thinking out loud here but I wanted to know if I were to arrange a USA group buy for this company who may be intrested. I am looking at splitting the rolls up more then anything because the beter deals come in 50 yrd spools. The same person also has an ebay account and sometime different stuff is there then on the website. I also really like the drink glasses and the shoes one but the dots are really nice as well.

to see what she has. Its nice because it is USA based. Sorry to those out of US. If I see enough of an intrested I will do a group but there is no limit.

Just wanted to let you know a friend and I ordered from their ebay acct and had a horrible experience. We were splitting a 50 yard roll. They sent 5 yards instead of 15 and then the shorted her again when they sent the rest by 3 yards. It was horrible and the ribbon smelled like mothballs ROFL! Just FYI

Wow thanks for the heads up. Is it the same company do you know or maybe an affiliate type of deal? I really like the patterns she has thats why I like her stuff plus the price is pretty good I think. I wish I knew someplace GREAT out of the USA that was good and inexpensive

I have ordered their ribbon and had a good experience. I bought both the 1.5" and the 7/8" of the hot pink with green polka dots. I'm sorry bowmom03b that you didn't have a good experience. That sucks. I will say that the ribbon is a tad thinner than I would like but it's ok. It's very comparable to some of the ribbon I've gotten from the Ribbon Queen. I'd love 25 yards or so of this:

If you get enough interest than let me know. I thought about just ordering it myself but their shipping is crazy for just one roll.

oh no it isn't just you...lol. i had to stick the ribbon in my garage for a couple of days to air out. I use it! But the quality is worse then UB. I like UB, but don't expect much for the price you pay.

Damn I just ordered from there YESTERDAY! Hopefully it'll be OK because I ordered 50 yds of two different prints!

As long as you get the ribbon it will be fine. It will just have to air out some. I've had mine for like 2.5 weeks and it still smells . I'm thinking about throwing it in the washer but I don't want to ruin 25 yards of ribbon

smells like mothballs to me....
