Thanks to everyone for relating your experiences with Feather Craft. It looks like we have a real winner here as far as service goes. I will be sending off my order either tonight or early tomorrow morning. Seven or eight positive responses and one small incident, make me feel pretty secure. "Big Eye" Daiichi hooks will soon be mine, all mine!
Normand: thanks for the warning about the time factor. I realize that these will arrive after that big day of celebration. My Eight Lords a Leaping will be delayed as well :D .
Betty: I tried to say Chr*stm*s but as soon as I typed the word, the Ghost of Political Correctness Present rose from the keyboard and whacked my fingers with a ruler until I understood that some little guy in Afghanistan who was busy making an IED would be offended by the mention of that holiday. Funny, I don't begrudge him his holidays.
Thanks again for everyone's help. Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR! 8T :D :D :D
