Anyone ever seen this website or heard of this company. I found it and the prices seem unreal.

ummm FYI you are not supposed to post non sponsor links on ifish just so you know.. rp
They are a wholesaler out of Calcutta India. Minimum order is $500.00 U.S. Dollars. They carry some decent low to mid range fly tying gear. We used them to supply the "shop brand" tying supplies when I worked in the industry. Aside from the logistics of getting the stuff (certified check had to clear before they would ship) it was smooth.

Ooh, ooh, I'm a cheapskate! Can you send me the link too please?!
And FWIW, I don't think Stew or any other pipe-smoking, single-malt-swilling, tweed-wearin', swinger-types should be allowed access to a "cheapskate website" like this. It might violate their principles! :wink:

I don't think you can be a cheap skate and order from this place. Mojo was right....$500 minimum order!

Yeah, and I have now seen where a lot of those fly tying kits on the auction site come from... :shocked:
Can you imagine having something like 600 vises?

Wow, If someone puts in an order, can I add a few things.
I don't need to drop $500, but I would like a $3 vise and some other tools.
I wouldn't mind a PM on this site either.

Tried to email them to get some information and the email came back as not valid. I want to see if I can buy some samples before I make a big order. I might have to call them to see. Good thing for the internet phone and can call India for about 10cents/min.
'course the samples might be all the stuff I need.

I got a hold of these guys, they seem really nice. I looked at their site and found that they'll send out samples. I ordered a few vises, tools, and materials that only added up to $50 ($25 of stuff, $25 to ship).
I Western Unioned money yesterday and got an email that the stuff was mailed out last night (daytime in India).
I'll let y'all know when the stuff gets here and the quality.

The "samples" came in last week. They look pretty good. I picked up a couple of the vises, and other tools to check the quality and, so far, they work really well.
