I've heard of that place! Yeah, I think they might carry it. I looked it up and the website is http://www.amazon.com. It's an interesting place.

I guess I've wiped it from my memory because I can't remember what the issue was with them, but I do recall removing the link I had to their site, vowing never to buy from them again.

My guess would be it was 5 strand paracord and not the 7 strand

The army surplus store here has a large selection.

It wasn't over paracord, that much I remember. Pretty sure it had something to do with them giving me trouble with a return. I'm old school - customer service after a sale ranks pretty high with me. That's why I'll rarely, if ever, get anything from eBay. I've had too many issues there.

Re: Paracord

I normally buy imitation para/550 cord at a local surplus store (real parachute cord, 7 internal strands, is hard to find any more).


...Reminds me; its time for the semi annual surplus store pilgrimage, to see what, if anything, is new/old but newly available.
... need to see if they have tubular webbing in bulk too.


Enjoy!

Re: Paracord

Paracord is great for some things. But for tent guy lines, better than paracord (which is nylon and stretches) is:

Made in USA by the seller. I got some of the orange reflective a while ago and can highly recommend it. If you want super strong he also makes and sells spectra cord.
