    Thanks for the mentions here on this thread! We do our best to remain competitive with other online stores, at the moment we are basically the same price as our US counterparts after factoring in exchange rate. Shipping of course is always a challenge here in Canada. Cheers,

    I ordered from them on Sept 27 and they just shipped today - October 5.
    So not a good start to our relationship!

    Yeah, tell me about it. I was getting some accessory cord from them as well as a few other things. Took 12 emails (3 different people), 4 phone calls, another 2 emails and another 6 phone calls. Not exaggerating. Got shipped 2 of the 3 items correct. 3rd was totally wrong. Then another round of emails and phone calls. Maybe they are used to people coming to their physical shop.

    I found marine store to be a great place if you need uhmwpe rops in a hurry.
    The price is usually horrific but when you only need 2 meters $7 per m is not to bad.
    Normal supplier sells at $2.30 per m

    The Maple Leafs Rope order just arrived - Oct 13.
    It looks like I got what I ordered - I'm not about to check the length wound on the spools.

    They don't call it Amsteel, and it isn't. I'm sure it will be OK for my purposes, but Amsteel has a much better 'feel', and look. The Maple Leaf stuff has that shiny look and will need a lot of stretching before it is put into use, I think.
    My advice: buy the real thing if you can get it.
    Amsteel on the right. Both 7/64
