Honigs has been, at least in the past, hesitant to tell if their stuff will be on sale in the future, thus the question. I KNOW the +POS stuff is 25% off now, but ordering stuff from there is like a trip to a Tijuana dentist. Dicey at best. (They haven't picked up their phone for me all day today).

I love some of +POS's stuff. Their pants, long sleeved shirts, those plate brushes with the scraper on the other end, jackets, etc. I also love Honigs service. I get stuff on my doorstep the next freaking day, in most cases. Might I suggest a hostile takeover?

I bought one of those plate brushes with the scraper on the other end. The first time I tried to use it to scrape some dried mud off the plate, the sucker broke in half.

Hunh. Mine's at least five years old, and still tickin'. My brush is almost worn down though.

Mud's tougher in Texas.

I did, finally, get through to +POS. I wanted to get a couple of the jackets with the light blue stripes on them. The guy who answered the phone said they were out, and probably not availible for Christmas. I went with the gray stripes, and was told they'd ship out the next day, and I'd have them by Saturday.

Hey, maybe things have turned around.

Just an update, I got the jackets I ordered. They were on time, as advertised and packed nicely. Nice garments, no complaints.

Like I've said, just make sure, by phone, that they have the stuff in stock, and get a ship date.

That's your experience. Here's mine.

The last time I ordered something from Plus POS, I placed the order by phone after being told that not only was the item in stock, it would go out the next day.

After not receiving the item two weeks later I called again. This time I was told that there was some snafu and the item would go out that day.

Another two weeks went by and when I called again I was told that the item was back ordered. I canceled the order, called Honigs and had the item in three days.

Getting assurance that the item is in stock is no assurance that the item is in stock. Ordering from Plus POS is like playing Russian Roulette with a loaded revolver. You have to be very, very lucky to win.
