Rob, if you think your question is good think about officiating for 8-10 years and then going to a IAABO "board." Then you would really have that "what is this for" question about IAABO.
I can't believe the customer service from this company. If they had some competition they would change the way they do business.

Welcome to the group who thinks that officials choice service stinks. I am still waiting for MTD to join this discusion and give his opinion on them being allowed to continue with their monopoly on the IAABO products. He is always a strong supporter of IAABO but for some reason has ignored these topic. C'mon MTD-what do you think? I for one have concerns over whether the relationship between IAABO and officials choice is all above the table.

First, lets not confuse The Official's Choice with IAABO. The Official's Choice is a mail order officiating equipment business, just like Honig's, POS, Purchase Officials Supplies, Flemings, or all of the other mail order officiating equipment business that are out there.
Personally, I buy 98% of my basketball and baseball/softball officiating equipment from Torch's Referee & Umpires Supplies (the Florida distrubutor for Purchase Officials Supplies) and the other 2% from Purchase Officials Suppplies. I buy my OhioHSAA umpiring hats from Flemings because they and Honigs' are the only business allowed to sell OhioHSAA equipment. I buy my soccer officiating equipment from who ever I please.
Second, IAABO can sell the rights to sell its equipment to whoever it pleases. If you do not want to buy from The Official's Choice, then by all means do not buy from them.
