Cool, thanks Lance. I was hopeful that another string bulk deal would come up soon. I'm sure I'll be up for a gross.

What is the price and what is the minimum?

Is this open to Canadian shipping?

Thanks

I guess there will be many who are leary to get in on anything the OLF wants to offer with the recent auction chaos and the subscription packages.

I've done the string order twice now with no hickups and if there were, Lance was always up front with communicating any issue. First time they did it there was an error in the order at D'Addario and Lance let us all know about it. I'm sure he was giving us the details as they came to him but those details were not his to decide. Once he got them, they were out quick and accurate.

Second time around, it went smooth with no issues.

I didn't order with the third round, but I don't recall there being any issues.

I'd trust Lance to pull this off without any issues, just as he's done in the past.

Thanks Rod
Yes the last order I posted a update every step of the way.
Required no funds until the order was placed.
DAddario gave us a 20 day order time frame and Theresa and I had them packed
And shipped with in two weeks of receiving them.

It will work the same way this and every other time.

Marc, each gauge of sting comes in a sealed bag (all 144 of each gauge/bag). Lots of guys make up PVC tubes to keep them in, I've vacuum sealed them (think food vacuum sealer) as sets which makes it easy to keep in the guitar case.


Lance, I'll be in for a gross of lights.

Is the $2.50 D'Addario's price? It's been a while since I ordered with them.

Apparently someone is counterfeiting D'Addario strings... Apparently not the gross packages....yet.
