Re: lots of cheap thread for people with space.

I didn't think it was spam either!! If postage costs weren't an issue, I would have definitely been insterested and would have missed the listing if it hadn't been brought to my attention here.

Thanks Jen!!

actually this time, I think the comment from jclark was sincere. That name looks nothing like the name of the ebay seller. and for a Gutermann thread rack with 676 brand new threads, the winning bid of £170.00 was a bargain and I think jclark was offering an honest pointer to a good value. I looked and was interested but getting 28kg of thread to VA seemed a problem and besides, I weave and already have too much thread.

Anyhow, I took and after investigation think Ken's post was not spam but an honest suggestion.

But then again, maybe I missed that part too?
