and my wife can recognize a TW box driving down the street. 

What does a driving TW box look like? I need to be on the lookout for a driving TW box so that I might be involved in an “accident”

Haha! My mom and one of my daughters were/are English teachers. As for the comma thing, the way I hear it is what we were all taught growing up is a thing of the past and commas are pretty much useless/optional now…

That's the sort of thing I'm talking about.  I don't understand why it sits there for days before they ship it.  Is it a manpower thing?  Or is this just how they operate?

I’m currently waiting on the same thing. Order placed Saturday night. Nothing yet. 

Best I can tell, if you order around a big sale time, all the overnight and two day orders go out first, then they start working on what is probably a giant backlog. If I had a single complaint it would be that the split inventory can make two-day orders kinda expensive, but that's become less of a problem lately. Maybe they are only charging for one two-day package.

 

I've tried about everyone else, and between the selection and the customer service I keep ending up back at TW. New stuff? TW. Big order? TW Sale time? TW. 

 

Omnia has promise, and they are very reliable. But the depth of product for a southern angler who likes to try new stuff just isn't there. They get a fair number of orders from me because of the pro program and free shipping, but those are mostly replenishment on items that are pretty well-known/established. 

 

A recent up and comer for me is copper state tackle 1) still small so personalized and 2) they have a deeper 6th sense inventory than anyone besides 6th sense.
