Hi All,

This is my first time posting though I've lurked for a few months now. I've gotten so much great information from the talented people here at OLF and I'd like to thank the host and contributors.

As a result of my visits here I was allerted to the Opportunity IR at Allied and took advantage of their April special. I ordered close to the end of the month and found the people I spoke to very helpful and courtious.

My order was backordered for like a week and I recieved the 10 sets I ordered like 2 1/2 weed after I ordered. When I got the wood I was shocked to find 11 sets in the box and a note that said they included the extra set for my patience. Wow!!!

Not only was the wood of much better quality then I expected with very few defects (Like two pin-nots and one slight crack out of eleven sets) they went way above and beyond in their customer service.

I just wanted to let others know of my great experience with these people and thank the OLFers who have contributed so much.

Again, Thanks

Tom Wolf

Hi Tom and welcome to the forum. Allied is a great group of people to deal with and I have found that their wood and sevice are both top notch.

Welcome Tom

And Tim we are glad that you are around as well.

The folks at Allied are great! The have gone above and beyond the call of duty for me a few times when there have been minor mistakes with my order. They will go the extra mile to make it right. Their wood is also of the highest quality. I recieved some Cocobolo from them today and as always it is some of the nicest I have seen.

Anyway Welcome!

Josh
