Same here. Ordered Friday received Monday. I like the quality so far and the pricing is great. The edge less blues are identical to some I purchased from another vendor for much more. Same with their waffle weave towels.

My experience as well. Did a rinseless wash today with the super plush blue with satin border towels, they worked great. Then put on a coat of wax and buffed it off with one of the orange edgeless towels, those things are awesome for the price.

Well I am three for three. Three Friday morning orders, three Monday afternoon arrivals. Guess I am lucky to live in a location where the Priority mail is cheap and fast.

Here's my latest order:

I simply ordered the 26" x 48" Avalanche Ultra Plush Drying Towel (w/ FREE WAX KIT) which consists of an enormous plush drying towel, a 14" x 14" wax removal towel, a wax applicator with finger pockets, and a wax buffing mitt - all for $17.95 shipped to my door (cant beat it).



And as with any online order, they included freebies. This time I got a sunglass cleaning cloth, a 2" x 4" microfiber applicator and a 12" x 12" utility style towel.



Starting with the drying towel - this thing is a beast. 4' long and seems to go on forever. Very plush, soft, symmetrical and the edges are well done. Should soak up water with ease, the blot method could be done very quickly with this much towel coverage...

Specifications:
Blend: 80% Polyester / 20% Polyamide
Weight: 500 Grams per Square Meter (Premium/Luxury Grade Towel)
Borders: Hemmed Natural Edge - Professional Trim
Material: Ultra Plush Split Microfiber





Here's the wax removal towel - its a 14"x 14" version of their Miner towel which has a dual sided nap depending on how stubborn the wax residue is (very nice).



And the wax applicator with finger pockets and buffing mitt. Although the microfiber is quality, I really don't see myself using these simply because I have plenty of towels and applicators already. However, I see it being a great gift along with your favorite wax to someone just getting into shining their ride.





Again, assuming these work as advertised (which all the other towels have), then I don't have a single negative thing to say. All this for $17.95 shipped over the weekend is ridiculous.

If you guys are gunna spend some money here and you think the regular prices are good, make sure you check out the wholesale pricing. All it takes to qualify is a $75 purchase and you have to call or email but I just placed a follow up order to fully stock my drawers and gift the old man some decent products and was amazed what I was able to get for the money. You pay shipping but it works out pretty damn good if your looking to secure a bunch of "rags"

The wholesale prices are insane but I dont need bulk for my little weekend warrior operation.

Ha ha, even at those prices I was still WELL over the $75 minimum with my second order. I just went thru my first order and I was impressed. I got a handful of the Everest 800's coming along with more of the edgeless orange, the small drying towels and I wanted to try the chenile wash sponge for the company car.

Nice, let me know about those Everest 800 - those look very nice.

Well I ordered last Friday when I found this topic, and the order was delivered yesterday (Monday). I'm also in (southern) IL.

Gotta love the freebies. And it's supposed to be warm (50's, maybe even 60) most of next week, so I may get to clean and drive.

I told you the avalanche towel is really nice. I will definitely be using the hand and mitt applicators.

Yeah I cant get over how big it is. Folded up it looks like a bath towel...
I gave my wife the mitt for dusting delicate stuff and I am keeping the applicator for waxing tight areas.

Just got my order this evening and have to say the quality looks very good and you can't beat the prices. Took less than a week to arrive which is awesome for Alaska. Can't wait to give some of these a test run. Picked up some Everest 800, super plush, premium glass an window, premium metal polish, edge less blues, an a few others. Hope they work as good as they look.
