I have called +POS 5 different times today and they have yet to answer my call.

You think?

+POS is run by one guy. Dan Parsons.

There's a couple of things I order from him on an annual basis. (scraper brushes, and small jackets for my Junior umpires). I'm in no hurry, so I get them when I get them. He's an okay guy, that's trying to keep the family business going. But it's just him, so don't expect a quick response at any time. Oh yeah, and he's got a full time, other job, last time I checked.

ABUA is also having a black Friday sale. the UECP is on sale

http://www.umpire.or...re/specials.php

Just spent $20 there. I hate fixed shipping based on the price though, considering I bought smaller items that I know won't cost close to what they're charging. I ended up buying as many of the 4-color pens as I could with the same shipping cost; I love using multiple pens for my calendar, so having four in one will be nice.

I havent heard as good of reviews about the Force 3 bag from people I know who have had it/tried it.

My bud recommended the big Diamond bag to me, even over the Wilson bag.

Quick digression - I noticed these Honig's socks which are probably meant to compete with the Force3 socks. Anybody ever used these?

Anybody ever used the Coolskin shirts &/or mocks, either?

I will pick up some of those new socks when I am in their store next week. I have their coolskin vneck shirt for basketball and like it allot, some of my umpire buddies have their mocks and swear by them.

Has anyone tried the force three equipment bag? Recommendations...

the pro nine bag is very well made (600 denier polyoxford ), size is 36"x15"x16" , with roller wheels , and telescoping handle . I believe that the pro nine and the diamond are very similar , and so is the wilson . My guess is that all three brands are from the same vendor , (if you look closely) with subtle differences only . http://www.pronine.c...a_UMP_BAG

It's my understanding that the pronine and the diamond are made the exact same with small differences. I would buy the pronine but I can't find anyone who sells it and you can't buy it directly from their website

I use the coolskin mocks and they are very comfortable. The only thing I would like to see them do though, is shorten the sleeves a little. They have a tendency to stick out from under my uniform shirt. That's my only gripe, though. As a former user of Mcdavid products, I highly recommend them! The fabric is much more breathable, and not nearly as hot.
