Thanks everyone I think I'll just go to Joann's & use coupons like I planned on in the first place. It never hurts to ask here before trying out something. Paying more is sometimes cheaper in the long run, less stress & worry.
Thanks agaun

It reads like a translation or a non-English speaker.
I'd really love to order several Clover seam rippers -- $1, are you kidding me! -- but having been once burned by a site like this for a substantial sum, I'm leery or trying another. :(

You're right they do have very good prices, but did you check out the shipping charges. I was going to order 8 pkgs. Clover glass head pins @ $1.00 each and 2 seam rippers 1.00 each for a total of 8.00. The shipping was 24.98 (or very close to it).
You're right I wasn't that foolish.

If there were several going together to order it would be a good thing.

They have phone numbers on their contact page, but I agree if the email bounced...

Obviously English- as - a- second - language folks. Dress forms for $1.00 seems a little weird as do the prices for muslins. With the cutting and marking tools it appears they are trying for the manufacturing market. I wonder if they are a front for an overseas outfit, making bucks with outlandish shipping charges? If you Google Map their addy there's a location but cannot tell much from that. They are not listed as a business at that location.

I see there is an sil thread co at a different address in NYC with www.threadus.com but all I see on their site are thread color charts and the first page of a catalog.

The 800 telephone numbers are directory assistance.

Their threads look the same as Connecting threads. Same size spools/cones. I buy my threads from connecting threads for $2.49 for the 2,000 yd. spools. Sometimes 1.74 on sale. Free shipping for orders over $50, so I do a group buy. Have never had any problems with them.

My hubby loves your m/c.

As for purchasing from this company, I pretty much look to the suggestions I get here. If no one else has ordered I do not either...money is just too precious anymore to take chances.

Even their tagging guns, needles and tags were all marked at $1.00 each - including the Micro-Tack stuff. Maybe you have to be a customer and logged in to see the actual prices?

I'd say this business is either just building and made their site live too soon or they are defunct and didn't bother to kill the site on their way out.

Yep, sounds like translation into "English." I think they are overseas. I would not order from them! (They may only want your payment information.) BE CAREFUL!
