I sent for two spools of the Tiger Thread mentioned above and I love it. I broke a few needle eyes but not the thread. I needed black thread to finish a civil war cap pouch. I had to have it finished before the 28th of Sept. I was afraid that Abbey wouldn't send it in time. I purchased the same thread from Ebay figuring I would get it sooner from E-Bay. I was wrong, Abbry sent me the thread in three days, I live in the USA, NJ. It only cost me $20 for shipping, two spools thread and a few buckles. They are large spools 0.8mm 500m for $16.73, I feel it is well worth it compared to the thread I was getting from Tandy's .
