I don't much about this stuff, but am learning because I started camping last year, purchased some crappy ropes to get going.

Would anyone know if this a good product for running shelter and tarp lines? I had one occasion where I had some rough weather to contend with and had some near disasters.

One of the reasons I bought this paracord. It would work very well ... especially the neon colors since you will be able to see the cord and not trip over it.

I use paracord for boot laces, just have to learn to tie a different bow to keep the knot tight. Also use it to wrapped the handle of a couple Louisville slugger bats ... just in case.

Yep, paracord works great for shelter/tarp lines.

Just invest in some quality aluminum stakes, like MSR Groundhogs.

They're a little pricier than normal stakes, but are lighter and work much better. (Plus, you just saved all that money going with the clearance stained paracord anyway... )

The $1.99 stained Paracord in Random colors is back in stock and shipping.

Good deal, TY

ordered six mystery...

I ordered 2 100 foot bundles, random color. It came the other day, one red, one yellow. It may be stained, but I cannot see the staining if it is. Cord looks fine to me, and is very good quality. I think I'll order some more.

random X 4, can't wait to get it, have a destination set for next month

Mine came FedEx and I can confirm they could only fit 9 in that envelope.

They have great chord! That's all I will use now. The random box is a great deal also.

sold out again

I was able to order about 1000' yesterday.
Not sure what I will use it for, but find it hard to pass up a good bargain.

If you're wanting inexpensive paracord, don't care about the color, and don't need the paracord to be in exactly 100 foot lengths, check out Atwoods' "Mystery Box":

https://atwoodrope.com/product...paracord-mystery-box

Plus you can use coupon code BOX20 for an additional 20% off a mystery box.

That's $11.99 (after discount) for 1000 feet of paracord. Compared to $19.90 for 1000 feet of the stained paracord.

Just bought 1,000'. Will always find a use for it. I once bought, through a marine wholesale supplier, 17,000 feet of line. About half was 1/2", the rest smaller. Between my friends and myself, it was all used up over a period of time.

2 lime green, 1 orange, 1 yellow and 1 tan. I do not see a stain or flaw after a casual inspection. Good Stuff!

Got an email awhile ago, Neon Yellow now available @ $1.99.

This cost me an extra $65 as I bought one of the 20lbs mystery boxes they are running right now. Probably have more rope and cordage than I will use in my lifetime.

Great deal even with shipping. Always have a use for good paracord.

Got my 500 feet of random today.

Neon Green, Burnt Orange (non-neon/blaze), Canary Yellow (non-neon), and two packs of Tan.

I guess they're all out of Hot Pink, and starting to run out of the various Neon shades too.
