Ebay has some "Stores" cheap prices also. MIKE

I can't recall ever getting shafted buying from an e-store. Not so with
Ebay!

Suggest you read the explanation very carefully and look at the pictures
very carefully. Some ebay hackle I got was poorly self-dyed and faded and
rubbed off while tying. I bought some Danville fly tying thread that was
factory reject or 2nds that had fat and thin sections on the spools.
"Stores" stuff I got is often sun faded and very old materials which may
or
may not be useful. No grab bag was outstanding - lot of useless stuff for
my needs. Always had good luck buying marabou, hooks, chennile, necks and
skins. Just be careful. Seems lots of Ebay fly tying stuff is sold by
estate sellers, whole lot auction buyers and antique dealers who use non
fly
tying knowledge as a cop out. In 100+ buys, I NEVER received any fly tying
stuff that EXCEEDED Ebay seller's description

Good luck!
