I'm bringing in my own poly thread and bobbins from China. I specified a higher dry break tenacity than what's out there and have 266 colors in stock. We use it in our own shop and haven't noticed any problems with it. Single spools 5000m are $3.95 and 12 or more same color are $3.75. Metallic is 4000m and goes from $12.95 to $16.95. Bobbins are $17.95 to $19.95 for boxes of 144. Color cards are $12.95 or free with $200 order or once you reach that I'll credit the card cost back to you.

Just as an update, I believe the issues were related to my machine and not particularly the Marathon thread. Got it all worked out and the Marathon has been running just as well as the Madeira for the last several jobs. Madeira still giving me the problem of catching ever so often but I must admit I haven't done anything to try to correct that.

Marathon seems to be working just fine now.
