Well, they at least ship stuff. I have been waiting on PlusPos for well over 2 weeks.

Yeah they've got a lot of stuff on backorder. At the beginning of baseball season I was in the market for some plate pants. They were on backorder at +POS, so I got them from Honig's instead.

Subtotal: $103.33
Shipping and Handling: $14.77

I went with the cheapest possible. But I ordered it 8 days ago, got a FedEx tracking number 7 days ago, but nothing has registered yet under the tracking number. I am going to email or call them this afternoon if nothing registers under the tracking number by them.

I ordered several sale items from Officials Choice in March. Shipping was $14.38 on a $39 order. The shirts arrived in three days by USPS. The bag arrived a week later by FedEx ground.

It may sound like shipping was expensive, but the sale prices were so low, it more than made up. And their actual shipping costs were close to $10 (by my estimate), so I did not have a problem with the small handling fee. I don't quite understand why folks here think businesses should lose money on shipping. I know many places charge about $7 for shipping. But I'd rather spend $9.50 on a shirt that costs $31 at Honigs or $20 on a bag that is $38 at Honigs. Sure, it cost me $6 more for shipping. But I saved $61 on these items for an extra $7 in shipping. How can anyone call that a bad deal?

Officials Choice is now charging $15 for the "microsofter" basketball shirts that everyone here says are so wonderful. Others get $27 for a micromesh shirt. So what if you pay a few bucks more for shipping?

It should also be added that if you wear a large in Cliff Keen shirts you will probably need a medium from Official's Choice. Of course, they don't have any mediums and will not get any in for about 6 weeks. Great, just great!

I just got my jacket and shoes today, even though the tracking number still doesn't show anything. Oh well. It took 8 days for me to receive my shipment, nothing wrong with that.

But if you want to order some pants from them I suggest you do it sooner rather than later because the prices are:
$28.88 (Current)
$34.89 (May 10-May 31)
$39.88 (June 1 on)
... as stated on their website. Plug over.

I hope you like the pants because the current pair I have from them seem to be stretching out and I don't mean around the waist. Made in Vietnam. The first pair I got from them were an inch bigger but too big. Cliff Keans. A better pant. My next pair will come from somewhere else. The shirts and everything else from OC are fine, though.

I heard the OC pants shrink in the dryer quite easily, in fact, too easily from one person. Do you dry your pants in the dryer? If not, maybe you should try that.

Yes. I use the dryer. The other pair were loose from the start.
