I purchased a roll of Quilters Dream about 3 months ago--it was a great price, but I did seem to have to wait longer than normal to receive it. There is a local rep for them in the KC area. Once I figured out that her shop was repping for them I figured I can just pick it up there and save S & H. From what I understand, there are reps dotted around the country so if you can figure out who your nearest rep is you may be able to avoid S & H.
