Termite Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 (edited) I'm trying to find the best suppliers for my componets. I'm kind of disappointed with Stamina. I just placed my second order with them and it has been 5 days and still have not seen anything. (usualy get orders from Jann's the next day with standard service) Anyway I need a good hook supplier with good customer service, who do you guys use?

rsinyard Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Shorty's is the best if you have a tax id #. You won't be able to get them cheaper anywhere else. If you use the Mustad 32798BLNs, I can help you out on those. I also carry other components (weedguards, skirt collars, tabs, etc). There are other guys here that can help you out as well. I think anybody here would be faster than Stamina's, Barlow's, etc and you keep the business inside the TU family. Just my Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLT Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 I thought Capt. hooks and Shortys were the same. One was for wholesale, other was for retail. On Shortys site, there is a link for Captain hooks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hollywood100 Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Here's my 2 cents- I have ordered several times from Captain hooks with excellent service. I now have ordered from Shorty's with the same great service. I am(was) under the impression that they are the same with Shorty's being the wholesale side. (yes, I have a tax#). The difference between the two: my hook price through Shorty's was about 7.5-8 cents apiece versus about 12-13 cents apiece through Captain Hook's (M34786BLN). Either way, I have had great service from both of these vendors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
