A follow-up to my earlier post. I ordered the thread at about 4 AM today. By 4 PM, I had an email saying that my package had already been shipped. Now THAT is service. I just hope their thread quality is as good as their business model, and I'll have a thread supplier for life!!!

Their thread is great I use it and I have heard that "if" they make a mistake and you let them know they will send you free thread and fix the mistake. To tell you the truth I have only heard good things about them.

I ordered 40 spools of the variegated thread. I just got it this afternoon. I LOVE IT!!! It is absolutely beautiful thread. I cannot wait to use it. Since it has the thread keeper caps on it, then I don't have to worry about the thread coming off. This is the best deal I've found online to date. Thank you!!!

Wouldn't you know it. A sale right after I ordered from another company. But Now i can compare the two and see which I like best.

You are so lucky with this deal. Wish we had it in Aust.

I ordered only 9 spools ,on the 2nd. A lot of the ones I wanted had sold out but , got those for less than 9.00 including shipping. Great buy. Nancy

Great deal, but unfortunately they will only ship pkgs deals to australia...boo hoo! Need find a go between, my sister is going to be staying in the states for a few months maybe I can post to her and she can post on to oz.... Hugs Sally

Thanx!!! Only could get 7 spools that I wanted, but that is great too! Hugs, Judy

Good deal. Not good for me though. They won't ship it to Canada unless it's a pkg. deal. Anyone wanting to play with varigated should buy this now at that price!

I do wish they would get thread charts back in stock, it's been months. When I write and ask, they are very non commital about it.

I know it isn't the same but I printed out the color chart ( Very clear ) Nancy

I looked on 2 different computers at the colors and chose some to try. I really like the thread, the colors are just not what I thought they would be. I want a color chart so I can match the material I want to do satin stitching on. I got one when I got my Arc thread way back when, and still rely on the actual color pieces. I'll be buying more thread when I can match well!

thank you for this reminder....I use metro thread all the time and love it.....got the 116 - 5500 spools last fall and have had a ball with them and now I will get to play with the variegated colors since I was able to get 10 and at their prices + postage it was only a little over $10......good deal.....

Thanks for the heads up, colors were selling out as I was trying to order them. Got 5 colors though, with shipping paid $6.22, man what a great deal!

Thank you. I've wanted some variegated thread to complete my collection. I just ordered basically one of every color they had left in stock. When I logged on to the site, there was one color sold out. By the time I completed my order, there were lots that were no longer available. But I'll have plenty to play with for a while thanks to your post!! Awesome find! I know nothing about this thread, but am willing to try it just because it looks pretty and the stuff in the store is so prohibitively expensive!!!! Thanks again. :)
