It seems as good as any of the big name braids I have used in the past. Like you say it took weeks and weeks to arrive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hazmail Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 (edited) Hope this stuff is OK Phil I just bought 300m X 10Lb - I have some Dyneema rope on my boat winch, it's 1/4 " thick and it hauls in a ton so I hope this is as good (about 1700Kg breaking strain). At this price who caresB) Rowingadubay- it's made in China not Japan, just like everything else!!! I'm an eBay regular, and on a first name basis with the courier - (he even offered me a job!!!) Most stuff from China gets here in about a week, this is about the only thing that happens here faster than it does in the rest of the world (except for the sun coming up and the date). Pete "All our goods will be shipped from Hong Kong . it usually 12 to 16 bussiness days arrival time by HONG KONG Post Airmail to Worldwide."
