I have ordered this once before and was pleasantly impressed by the quality and packaging. I use a lot of black paracord and this is a great offer. Quality, quantity and economy in one roll.
I have ordered multiple times from PG and they have served me well. Their customer service is good and I have never had an issue that went unresolved. They have always made a satisfactory effort to resolve anything that surfaced.
Thanks!
