Your suggestion to edit my address omitted my apartment number and changed the name of my town! I would have never received my order if I followed this suggestion. You should correct your "intelligent " software.

Delivery and customer service were another matter. I attempted to call customer service on 4 different occasions, at different times of day, and each time I got an automated call that said they were experiencing high call volume and there would be a 20 minute wait. As for delivery, I received an email saying that delivery was attempted but could not be made. Doing a search, I found that the flag and pole were at my post office, which is 11 miles away (I live in the country). I had to go to the post office and pick it up, because the mail carrier couldn't fit the 7 foot box in the jeep used to make mail deliveries. I suppose if I had chosen the much more expensive 2 day or next day delivery options, this could have been avoided.

Easy to navigate, love that Made in USA logo. The product arrived quickly, undamaged and was high quality. Engraved perfectly and love that it was ready to install (I didn't need to provide double sided tape!)

Very easy to use. Did have some problem putting the brass screw into the hardwood staff. The hole had to be enlarged. Additionally, I was confused with the enclosed loop screw since the tassel did not go into it but was shown just laying over the screw. However, the overall quality was good.

Thank you for making such a beautiful frame. I am so pleased that I chose the dark wood frame with the Army emblem. Putting my husband's flag into the frame was emotional for me, but I am very, very proud of how it looks.

Received flagpole but the gold ball for the top was damaged from packing. I called and a replacement is being sent. The flag that was included in the order did not come with the pole. I notified company. I hope its a separate order!

I have bought flags from you before. We moved and could not take the big glad to our new home. The flag pole would not handle it so I purchase a smaller one from a retail store. It lasted 6 months and was torn to pieces. So I ordered a new one from you. It looks so good and will last a long time, just like the last one I ordered from you. Great material.

We've purchased the Valley Forge Koralex II flag previously and it is a great flag. Bright color, very tough, weather and fade resistant. Our 5' x 8' flag flies continuously. The only negative is that the price has risen substantially since our last purchase.

Reason I chose this business:

We've had good experience with United States Flag Store in the past.

Reason I chose this product:

Weather resistance.

We had an event coming up for scouts in the area. The flag associated with that area was tattered and not appropriate. We looked for similar sized flags and many places did not have them in stock which i found unusual. We found you sit it was here quick and the scouts put it up for the first time today!

You had what we wanted, and ordering was easy. Thank you for the tracking number but it never worked when I clicked on it. Got a message that the tracking number could not be recognized. Was worried about the order, but then it got delivered today.

I highly recommend this company. I will only order anything to do with the flags from this company. Made in the USA. Anybody I talked to from customer service was very very nice. If you have any questions, they are more than happy to help you.

I ordered the wrong size flag case. The girls were more than happy to help me out. Emailed me a return label and re-ordered a different flag case for me. Did not give me a hard time about anything. I for one will always want to use your company for anything to do with flags And highly recommend.

Reason I chose this business:

I thought the prices were very reasonable, and everything is made in USA.

Reason I chose this product:

I looked online for flag cases, and most of them were from China. I cannot see putting a veterans flag in something made from China. I only try to buy things from USA.

Another purchase from USFS. Very good quality to price ratio. Time on the pole will tell the true story. Flags flown 24/7 will not last for years. I'm very happy with my purchases from USFS. Thank you.

Ordered a 3x6' fan. The fan that arrived was 8 inches short, and the top seam was not canvas like advertised. Wanted to return and sales people say they don't give refunds. This is incredible- you send me an item that is smaller than advertised and not the quality that was advertised and now you expect me to pa for shipping to return it. That is the worst customer service I have ever experienced.

Tip for consumers:
Correct advertising- same quality and size as the last time I ordered these products from the US Flag Store. Very disappointed in the company, the quality, and the service.

Products used:
I haven't found a replacement yet.

Very nice and concise website. Easy check out. I originally placed an order for a different 5' x 8' flag from your website but it stated the material was imported, so I cancelled that order and placed another one with for the flag that said it was American made. It just made more sense, if we're going to purchase an American flag that the flag be American made. Customer Serviced cancelled the order immediately and I was able to make the new purchase.

I think that the should have more staples. I'm somewhat afraid that if the wind get strong the flag may tear from the staff. Other than that I'm very satisfied with the product.
Will be ordering from y'all again.

I wanted a better flag because the last one's I've gotten from local retailers didn't hold up well. My neighbor's flag that he'd gotten from you was holding up well so I ordered one and was impressed with the high quality the minute I opened the box.

This is the third time I've stated the issues. One flag is shorter than the other. There is an arc in the blue field causing a bunching area in the stripes.

No response. Until this e-mail.

This is the second time I have ordered flags for our church from this website. The site is easy to navigate. They have the flags I needed, American, Christian and Alabama. I received my flags quickly and was very satisfied with my whole experience. I also really liked that they except PayPal.

These flags are the best yet I've bought. I use them on the motorcycle I ride (100K) and had to replace them many times from different venders. These new ones look and feel great. Their service was excellent too, very fast and complete delivery of my order.

Business History

The United States Flag Store is an online retailer that specializes in selling flags, flagpoles and flag accessories. The United States Flag Store is a subsidiary of Online Stores Inc., a privately owned e-commerce and parent company to seven other stores and sites that each specialize in their own respective niche markets. Online Stores Inc. is home to The United States Flag Store, the English Tea Store, Discount Safety Gear Store, Construction Gear Store, the Safety Girl Store, Lightup and Northline Express.
The United States Flag Store is most known for their selection and quality mid-level inventory of United States Flags.

There is also an offshoot website called printourflag.com in which customers can print their own American flags and flagdetective.com which customers can find certain flags that they might not have all of the particular information on.

On the Print Our Flag website, owner and founder Kevin Hickey writes,
"We are out of Flags"
That was the sign that greeted me when I approached numerous stores. In response to the terrible tragedy our nation faced on Sept. 11th, like many Americans who donated blood, and held fundraising events, I wanted to somehow demonstrate my patriotism and help display the colors of democracy. Flags, however, were in short supply. This website proved to be a combination of a low tech/high tech solution. While the demand has since decreased, we've kept the site in place for anyone who needs to download and print a free American flag. Please feel free to download the flags I've posted... and as long as people continue to submit artwork, we will continue to post new and updated flag clip art and photographs.
Sincerely,
Kevin Hickey
CEO, Online Stores, Inc.
