I wonder if any of our cruising sailors have any experience with the above store. I have googled Vela Sailing Supplies and can only find reviews written by people who seem to be closely associated with the organisation, and one-time only posts which mimic the above.

Like many others here, I am soon to be spending a lot on chandlery items, but I will only deal with well known and reputable firms. Would appreciate comments from long term CL posters who can provide testimonials for Vela.

The web site looks impressive but when I looked up the address, its in a residential apartment complex. I wonder where they keep their stock, with all their range of stock one would think they have some kind of warehouse.

I tend not to trust those who on their first post push a business of any kind. I also thought there were some kind of rules regarding commercial activities on these pages.

Ahh well,

Lexx

Yup, I think it's another Chinese drop shipment arrangement. Paid up capital zilch, capital equipment = 1 x second hand computer, 1 x desk, 1 x chair, 1 x ashtray, 1 x 1995 hyundai excel.

Auzee, Lexx and everyone else on this forum

My name is Rod Favela and I am the director of Vela Sailing Supply.

Sorry to have started here with the left foot.

We are a US based company, currently operating in Frisco, TX (north of Dallas) and soon moving to a larger facility also based in North Texas where we will be able to have a show room and stock more products.

I want to apologize for the less than adequate first post as it had nothing to do with this forum and the thread was continued by mistake.

We do stock some of the products we carry. We also drop ship from our distributors in case there is something we don't have on the shelf at the time of the order.

Please feel free top contact me by phone, email or through our Live Help chat and I will be glad to respond to any question, comments or complaints.
