Two to three weeks. Airmail from Hong Kong. Christmas time. Not a nice timing.Originally Posted by Rain Man

Yeah, that was my fear. Didn't help that he accepted my order on Dec 2, but then waited a full week to mail it, thus putting it right in the Christmas rush.
Didn't help, either, that he sent me a tracking link that takes me to a "blank" page for tracking, but with absolutely no info on my particular package, except that the tracking number is shown.
Anyway, thanks for letting me know it took you guys 2 or 3 weeks. I was just wondering. I'll continue to be patient.

My envelope from Hong Kong finally arrived in my mailbox yesterday, January 4. I placed my order online December 2. Over a month.
That's not to complain, but to let others know to be patient when placing an order.
I got the 1.1 mm reflective line and can't wait to try it out on a rainfly.
I also got 8 glow-in-the-dark line locks (right name?) and apparently as an unexpected bonus, two of another kind of line lock (the kind you squeeze to pass through shock cord, then release to lock it in place). Neat!

Glad to hear that you got your package. Nice score on the bonuses!

FYI just went to the site and they only have the 1.5mm at the moment.
Has anyone had a chance to work with this stuff yet? I finally got around to making my guy lines out of this. I was having a bit of trouble with tangles. Most likely it's the tracer but this stuff really holds a memory. They're all wound up now and I'll probably get to try it out later this week. I'm hoping once they get worked with over time they'll loosen up. Anyone else finding this?
Like any of the UL lines like this that I've used, they take some time to "loosen up." The tracer does seem conducive to slight tangling, but a good shake seems to take care of that if you wrap the line well after use.

Can't wait to see that, I just made new UCRS for the year, testing a Marlin Spike Hitch with dynaglide found me on the living room floor (gently at least) and melted some fibers from the friction. Got some nice shiny new ones with toggles attached so I don't lose em
