Flag is nice but did have some over sewn areas where the thread was hanging out. Hopefully the stitching holds up well. Overall, felt like a good quality flag.

Flag came in 3 days, great condition. After the first rain, all the red color is running into the white stripes. We now have a pink American Flag up at our Cemetery.

Please fix this problem!

Reason I chose this business:

No problems in the past.

Reason I chose this product:

All of our other flags we purchased worked out well, no problems flying out doors.

These flags are not in service yet, but they seem to be high quality. The sticks are longer and thicker than any I've ever seen. The cloth feels durable.

My flag was wrapped around the pole within an hour after installation. This product does not work. Very disappointed, should have saved my money. Not at all as advertised!

Products are as described and fairly priced, shipping took too long IMO. I had to call and complain and miraculously after complaining my order showed up 4 days later.

Great. Although the replacement was a slightly different design than the original it appears to be just what I needed. Will know sure when I next fly my flag.

Had a wind storm that blew our flag pole over and snapped the original sleeve. Purchased this one and it looks much more solid than my original. So far, so good. Definitely pleased with purchase.

I do live stage events. If you need to receive your items then don't use this company. They used a shoddy shipper, lost my items and are making me wait ten days to see if MAYBE they can find the 800 flags that I ordered! My event is in a week. They won't reship for ten days! I have to repurchase flags and now at a rush. Customer service has staff that make promises they cannot deliver on and others who say too bad, it's our policy. Well, good. You can't get me what I paid for so I won't ever order from you again. THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED!

Tip for consumers:
Beware. If your item is lost you are screwed and don't try to get it in a hurry. If they lose your items you will have to make multiple calls. Basically, they stole $165 from me because I don't have the merchandise!

Products used:
800 US AMERICAN FLAGS

When I finally figured out what to do after calling your business, all went well. You did raise the price on this item $30.00 above what you advertised. All items arrived in good order. Thanks!

Wop's Hops Brewing Company is a veteran owned brewery so it is important to fly US Military flags at our location. Ordering from the US Flag store was a very easy process with many options to choose from.

Pleased with price and product.

However, delivery was slow and blunt end on every flag post was surprising; (used an electric pencil sharpener to ease placement in ground).

These small stick flags are much sturdier than expected. I have them mounted outdoors on signs in the Kansas wind and rain and they are holding up great.

I would have liked to get all flags in the super knit but some states didn't have that option. It was disappointing as that quality is quite different.

This was a great buying experience. I used my flags for a flag raising ceremony, complete with the playing of State and National anthems, for and with the students in the School 19 Student Government Association. On behalf of School 19 in Passaic NJ, thank you for helping us with our celebration.

Reason I chose this business:

I chose your company because the quality of your product is well worth the price!

Reason I chose this product:

Each flag chosen is symbolic of the experience of the students in School 19's Student Government Association. We are from NJ, hence our State flag. Our students are from Puerto Rico, Mexico and the Dominican Republic. And I wanted them to know something about The United Nations. Now all we need is the flag for the city of Passaic NJ.

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. The company is based out of New Stanton, Pennsylvania, along with its parent company's Online Stores Inc. headquarters which also houses a 100k square foot warehouse for the assembly, manufacturing and shipping of its products. A second warehouse is located in Sparks, Nevada, to help in the service of their customers on the west coast. The site boasts fast shipping to anywhere in the United States.
The United States Flag Store has their own brands with Super Tough and Super Knit. The New Stanton facility manufactures all of the Super Tough brand's stick flags and as a whole, most of the company's stick flags.
The United States Flag Store offers a wide selection of flags including United States flags, U.S. state flags, military flags, country and world flags and even historical flags. The site also provides a plethora of flag information, history and facts relevant to its products along with multiple blogs on the topic.
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.
