Ohh crap... here we go again. Buyer Warning

Just ordered 1500y of 65lb braid and found it was odd that it was coming from China. Then I find this.

It hasn't arrived yet but I've already contacted Amazon and Power pro. I'm going to bring it in to shimano for inspeaction before making a claim with Amazon.

I usually buy it from ebay but I always look at the shippers location. After close to a dozen orders no issues with my line.

Trust me I called four local shop and all were out of stock. The 700 yards before that we're all purchased locally at .14cent a yard. I ended up with amazon because I had a $100 gift card.
