I've never used these, but they seem to have decent prices.

Re: anyone ever use Caribou’s upholstery kits ?
Seems that we have numerous stories of folks ordering from them and never receiving the products they ordered. I have refrained from ordering from them due to the recomendations from others

Re: anyone ever use Caribou’s upholstery kits ?
As the guys who purchased the remaining Caribou inventory over a year ago... I'm a little surprised. Ed assured us that he would only be selling reproduction manuals one he shipped the parts to us.thebudmanjim wrote:Just got blank keys from Caribou's 4 weeks ago, have they gone out of business since then?

I can't even find the website, when I search for Caribou Imports I just find a bunch of people that got ripped off?
