Testimonials

....and being the "humble Texans" we are, we just thought we'd mention that we recently closed our eBay store with a 100% feedback rating with nearly 2,700 positive feedbacks. This store is so much more fun, and it's going to get even better now that we'll be devoting 100% of our time to it. Thanks for taking the time to share your kind words with us! Russ 'n Linda

As a transplanted Texan living in Florida, I wanted to decorate my kids bathroom in a Texas theme. Obviously you can't find Texas decor of any kind in Florida, so it was nice to find a website I could order from so I can bring a little bit of Texas to Florida. Thanks! Trudy - Otwell, Florida

Just a mail to tell you there is one more "dmwt" metal sign in France right now! By the way, my brother is fond of this birthday present. Thx for everything. Nicolas - Paris, France

Just wanted to let you know that I have my new purse and tank top "ALREADY." My purse was here within a day of sending the other one back. They must have sent the new one out before they even got that one back from me. That was great of them to do that !!!! My tank top came today, and it is just the right size . I just love everything I've bought, I've worn my flip-flops and got some compliments on them, and my purse as well, and of course they wanted to know where I found them...... AND I WAS GLAD TO TELL 'EM !! Just wanted to let you know that I'm completely satisfied [Again]. Thank you for your help! Pamela - Abilene, Texas

Thank you guys for offering this stuff online. I am Texan born and raised, but 2 years ago the Lord saw fit to move me to Missourri. I say it's because I am a missionary from Texas now.

Hi Linda - Just read your email so I opened the box. Couldn't imagine what you were speaking of until the whole floor was covered with packing paper & I found the different looking little tissue. Linda, I'm old ! - There I am on the floor wondering what on earth ! And then finding the bumper sticker & laughing my head off ! I love it so much ! Thank you ! Thank you ! Thank you ! I assure you - even with a Michigan license plate on my car, this will be on my car TOMORROW ! You are so kind & so thoughtful & words can't express how much I love this & appreciate YOU for this gift. The minute I have a Texas license plate, I hope you'll be able to find me another for the new car. (Trading in when I get there.) You're the best & you're a winner & you're surely BLESSED & a blessing ! The whole world full of love, Nova - Muskegan, Michigan

I got my Texas Christmas stocking in the mail...it is for my daughter in law and SHE loves it ! .. She needed a stocking but didn't want just any old traditional stocking..so I got a huge hug for finding the one you have at your site. It is even prettier up close than the picture shows it on the site. Thanks for being such an awesome website. Sheila - Mineral Wells, Texas

I just received my shipment.... I love it! It made me teary eyed to open it!! It will just go perfect with our other Texas stuff! I should be ordering again next month! Thanks a bunch! Alison - Ft. Bragg, NC

I am sure you will hear from me again. I will be checking your site often, just to see what is new! A BIG TEXAS "THANK YOU"! See ya'll real soon! Your Friend, Jodi in VA

Well, the chairs are assembled (hardwood rockers with the Texas Lone Star), and my socket set put back in order due to the "assistance" of my 3 year old daughter, and they look great. I think my wife is really going to like them and just in time for her birthday (today). Thanks again for your help and I look forward to sending business your way in the future. Matt, College Station, Texas

Howdy .... Just ordered two bumperstickers .... wanted to send you a big "thank-you-wave" in advance from Switzerland. Urs - Switzerland (Don't Mess with Texas bumper stickers)

Hi Linda: Thank you so much, you're very considerate but I do wish to purchase the Armadillo. It's really a wonderful item and most appropriate as a souvenir from Texas. Well Linda, I must to go to bed because I've got to get early tomorrow, but before that... I have to take my spurs off.. :-) Linda, it was a please to get in touch with you and I look forward receiving your lovely items. Thanks for all and God bless Texas and to You. Alfredo - Pontevedra, Spain

I received the items today. My nephew is from NH and has a new infatuation with Texas! He wants to move to Texas within the next year or two. He will be thrilled to receive these items for Christmas! Judy - Harrisville, Utah

Just wanted you to know we received our order yesterday and love the stockings. Also, thank you for the little extras that you sent along. I know the cowboy Santa will be a hit and I am going to save the "Welcome to the Ranch" sign for James when he gets home from Iraq - he'll love it. Most of all, thank you for your thoughtfulness. With all that goes on in our world today, it is heart warming when we meet people like yourself who reach out to others...God Bless! Noreen - East Hartland, Connecticut

Great website with a wonderful collection of TEXAS articles. Thank you for letting me spend time in your store. I look forward to many future purchases. Steven - Loxahatchee, Florida

Thanks so much for calling me last nite. Customer service like that is unexpected now days...Kelly - Midland, Texas

I really appreciate the way that you have taken care of this order and how personable you were! Thank you for sending the extra business card holder as well as the best wishes for our family. I will definitely keep your business in my favorites section and recommend it to anyone. Thanks! Lexy - Gruver, Texas

I just received my package and it all looks great! These are all Christmas presents for my daughter who thinks that Texas should be a country in itself!!! She is going to love all of this! Merry Christmas! Cindy - Benton, Arkansas

This isn't a question or request but, rather, a heartfelt "thank you!" for existing! My in-laws (or outlaws - as we'd call them in Texas) are from - & live in - California. I decided last Christmas that I'd send Texas-themed Christmas ornaments as gifts every year. Unfortunately my (semi-) reliable local source dried up & I was getting desperate! You came through for me so, again, thanks from the bottom of my Texas heart! Sally - Round Rock, Texas

The (Texas Flag) guitar case is awesome! The craftsmanship is wonderful! My husband is from Texas and we live in California. He plays in a band and I am always looking for something unique for the Texan in my life. I knew this guitar case would be perfect. I couldn't wait until Christmas, so I gave it to him the day I received it. He opened it and was amazed! He took it with him that night to his performance and it was proudly displayed on the stage; front and center as the band performed. Rita - Sanger, California

Package arrived yesterday, in great shape. Thanks for sending Nick the bumper sticker...it put a great big smile on his face.... We are definitely "missplaced" Texans.... and can't wait to go "home". Thanks for being such big hearted people....as we all know Texans are!!!! Pat and Nick, Raleigh, NC

OH! My Goodness! Thank you all so much. Kaley LOVED the gifts. We took pictures of her opening them. She, One of our other friends, and myself got together for about a half an hour one day and we opened our gifts to each other. As soon as I get a chance, I will forward some of the pictures to you . Thank you for making this Christmas as happy as possible for us in Iraq. Stephanie, Combat Medic, Iraq

Thank you so much for sending out the Christmas ornament so promptly. I purchased it for my Mrs. for our 1st Christmas as Texas land owners (soon to be residents). God Bless! Gerry - Batavia, Illinois

I received the wine stopper today, and it is really cute! My husband loved the Texas sticker you put on the outside of the package. It came off nicely and he now has it on his post-it board on his desk. You guys are having too much fun with my cows! Y'all are great for keeping up with all my stuff, I do a lot of internet shopping and you guys have certainly beat everyone on customer service!!!!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR! JACKIE - Riverside, Texas

It was an absolute pleasure to work with you, and I will definitely be calling upon you again. You are one of the most personable, pleasant people I have ever had the pleasure of doing business with, and the quality of the gifts we received were outstanding. Best of everything to you & yours in the New Year and I will look forward to working with you again. Sincerely, Wendie - Crosby, Texas (This large chemical company purchased their employees gifts and the decorations for their annual holiday party from us).

I've never seen iron packaged so well & with so many fragile stickers. My daughter couldn't stop laughing as I tried to get into the box ... she's STILL falling over laughing. I pulled out the big scissors, finally got the item out & then did the twirl unwrap for about 5 minutes straight which resulted in a fully wrapped kitten under my chair when I was done ... which I then had to unwrap. LOL! I have GOT to have you wrap all the kid's Christmas presents next year!!! HA!! Liz - McKinney, Texas

Thank you for having this on the web. I lived in Abilene, TX for a while, I was 4 when my family moved there. Then we moved back to MN when I was 12. I moved back to TX for college and Hardin-Simmons in Abilene. I moved back to MN about a year and a half later. I am married and and have children. Sometimes I get the feeling of miss being there. I'd move back, but situations can be difficult. I have a sister-in-law who lives in TX and her husband is in the Army. One of my sisters lived there before, but moved back to MN a couple of years ago. I'd like to see more pictures of Texas if you don't mind. It is great to see part of "home" again especially during our winters here. Thanks again for having products like these available. I hope to be shopping soon. God Bless and thanks again. Carolyn - Clarissa, Minnesota

I received my drapery tie backs the other day in GREAT shape. I'm so excited to get them up in my TX decor room. I know y'all were in Dallas recently the last time I emailed. Will you be sending emails out when you get the new mdse in? I can hardly wait! This is one of the best sites I've found online. With the price of gas it is worth the one stop shopping. My brother-in-law that now lives in Arkansas emailed me back after I sent him y'all's link and said..."I can see some future orders from here." He is decorating his office and workshop in TX. Poor misplaced Texan. Thanks again. Jo Anne - Lago Vista, Texas

I know that I am dealing with real Texans when I see the term "tacky" used to describe cheap belt buckles!!!!!!! When you travel outside of the Lone Star State as I do, you do not hear that term used. I still remember my Mom telling me "not to be Tacky". What a funny thing to remember after all these years. By the way, the buckle I ordered is the only one that I've found that is solid brass. I am looking forward to wearing it out here in California. I'm sure the locals will not appreciate it but that's part of the fun in wearing it. At least our home is not one of those "square states" on the U.S. map that nobody can remember the name of! Y'all be good. Steve - Torrance, California

I received the items that I ordered, and I just wanted to first comment on the wonderful way you packaged the items. I was very impressed. The products are great and I love them. Thanks so much for making them in excellent quality at an affordable price. I will definitely recommend your site to other fellow Texans. Thanks Again! Sherri - Surprise, Arizona

I have enjoyed all the items that we have ordered. The items have been packed very well. I will continue to buy from you. Karolyn - Vacaville, California

I received my TEXAS FLAG COMFORTER and I love it!!! Thank you so much! I can't help but smile every time I walk in my room! I look forward to decking the rest of my home out in your stuff!! Thank you!! Leanna - San Antonio, Texas

Thanks so much for the item I ordered. It the last thing I was missing to finish our Texas bathroom set. Now when my Hubby comes home from Iraq he'll be happy to see TEXAS once again! We all miss Texas, Thanks for making us feel at home again. Oh and the shipping was super fast and very well packed. Thanks:) Robin - Fayettville, NC

I received the stickers in the mail the day after I sent you the message (go figure!). But all is well now and I'm loving the Texas flag that was sent along with them too. I think I will hang that up in my barracks room! Thank you again for all your help. I'll definitely be coming back for more! Thanks again! Brayden - U.S. Marine Corps

Howdy Y'all! I absolutely LOVE the items that I purchased, and it was wonderful speaking to you as well. I would recommend y'all to EVERY homesick Texan, because you bring so much goodness to the world! I look forward to future business with both of you again. Oh, and Thank You for the flag- That was nice! :) Sign Me, SSG Andrew Kovacsy, Texas Embassy, Grovetown/Fort Gordon, GA

Just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed shopping on your website!!!! I spent hours just looking at all of the wonderful things you had. I was shopping to decorate the office for a new company that friends of mine have started and I am proud to be working for. If I would have had an unlimited budget, I could have just gone crazy buying things! Thank you so much for promoting our great state of Texas! God Bless! Terri - Houston, Texas

I received my order today and am VERY pleased. Can't wait for my new grandbaby to wear the items. Thank you. Anne - Wimberly, Texas

Love your website. Having been born and raised in the United States of Texas, I think this is one of the greatest sites on the Internet. I ordered my business card holder on Friday and received it on Monday. Outstanding response. I am the envy of my office. Your website even conveys a hospitable feel. Nice work. And I really like your story of how y'all found each other again after 41 years. Blessings to you. Max - Dallas, Texas

The silk bluebonnets are perfect. I intend to use them in my guest room, "The Bluebonnet Room," at our summer place in Cape Cod, MA!!! Thanks to you I will love showing off how beautiful Texas is. Julie - Granbury, TX

Just wanted to let you know that the knobs arrived safely and are just BEAUTIFUL!!! I'll meet with the cabinet man on Tuesday to review the layouts for the rooms - in the event I underestimated and need more I'll let you know. You are such a sweetheart.... I adore the horseshoe - we'll make sure to put it over the door for good luck!!! Many, many thanks! Thanks again for all of the coordination and conversations over the past year - these Texas touches will truly make the new house our home! Meanwhile, I'll keep checking your website for more goodies! Kim - Brunswick, Georgia

Just wanted to let you know I got my stuff and I really like the feed bag purse. I also had ordered the Texas flag bandana and I put it on Odie (my dog) and took him to 11th St. Cowboy bar. He goes there a lot. I think I might order two more of those so I can put them together and when I ride my horse to town he can dress up, too. It's nice to know you're almost local. I will be shopping on your site again. You have sooooo many things. Nancy - Bandera, Texas

Hi Y'all, We our so thrilled with all our Texas items. I'm sure we'll be shopping again with you all. We were in Dallas for 25 years & we miss Texas so much. Thanks again and yes, GOD BLESS TEXAS.....Janell - Macksville, Kansas

I received my shirt today and I just ordered it yesterday morning. Great service, I will definitely order from you again. Thanks! Tamra - Lake Jackson, Texas

I am a very proud generational native Texan. My family was at the Alamo, Goliad and everyone in the last 90 years has served in the US Military (Even the women). I am very particular about what I purchase. I decided to make my bedroom a history on the evolution of Texas. I found this site and placed an order. I received my merchandise ASAP. I went back 2 days later for the rest of my stuff. The quality of their products is only eclipsed by their outstanding service. You may be able to find something a little cheaper. However, you will never find better quality or customer service anywhere! I will visit this site for all my Texas goodies. Russ & Linda sure are gooood people!!!!!! David - Lakeway, Texas

I got the stuff today and I must say I am VERY impressed. The size, quality, and craftsmanship were much better than I expected for such low prices. And the box was obviously very carefully packed to avoid breakage. Thanks also for taking the time and effort to keep the postage rate down and getting it here quickly. I saw other items on your website I liked and I'll definitely be a repeat customer in the future! Thanks! Darren - Macomb, Michigan

I think the mahogany frame would look best in his office, so don't worry about the delay, I understand. I received the other items on Saturday and they are perfect and I think he'll really like them. I plan to print out the picture from your website and place it in his birthday card. I really appreciate your concern on getting the order to me as soon as possible, but don't worry, we're pretty easy going, and I know when it's done, it will be a beautiful addition to his office. Thank you so much for all your time and effort in getting my order right and for letting me know what's happening along the way. You have gone above and beyond my expectations and I will recommend your site to everyone I know. Not only do you guys have unique and wonderful items, but you are excellent in customer service, so again, thank you so very much. Jennifer - Silsby, Texas

Thank you so much, I appreciate your prompt response. I am taking these to Finland and just found out this morning there will be 3 more people in the meetings. I am really impressed by the quality of these card holders. I am very happy with my purchase and will definitely recommend your site to my family, friends, and business associates. Thanks again. Jennifer - Irving, Texas

I love your store! I will defnitely be ordering more items. My husband is at Ft. Polk, LA right now, but will be home in a few weeks. I sent him the website because I know there are items that he will love, and will want to order also. I was born in New Jersey, but I am an Army brat, that is what brought me to Texas. However, my husband is a native Texan (proud to be a member of the Sons of the Republic of Texas), and our two children were born here in San Antonio. So, when we decided to do something with our backyard patio, we decided to go with a Texas theme. We are having fun looking for Texas items. Lisa - San Antonio, Texas

Howdy! We packed all weekend!!! Yippee!!! Just wanted to let you know that both boxes came today, and I could not be any happier with our purchases!!! I love the bedset!!!! It is the most awesome one I have ever seen!!!! I can hardly wait to get to Texas and get our bedroom and bathroom set up and show it off!!!!! I am sure we will be ordering lots more from you and telling everyone where we got our beautiful things from!!!! Your place rocks!!!!! Penny - Middleburg, Florida

My order for my husband's birthday just came and it is all wonderful. I especially love the picture frame. Now, if I can find a decent picture of me to put in it for him. Of course, he likes me on the weekend with no make up and my hair sticking straight up so I don't know why I'm worried. Thank you so much. You will be hearing from me in the future. Jan - Dallas, Texas

We recently bought the Texas Booties, Bib, and Cap set on your website, and we couldn't be happier with the service. =) We received the products shortly after we bought them, and thought that the packaging of the items in Texas tissue paper was so thoughtful and nice! We are expecting our first baby and just had to buy the Booties, Bib, and Cap set! My husband is a Marine and we are stationed in San Diego, California. Even though our baby will be born in California =(, we'll make sure he/she grows up Texan! =) We will definitely be shopping more frequently on your website to show off our Texas pride and to have a little piece of home here in California. Thanks so much for the wonderful service! Sincerely, The Ramirez Family -Proud Texans

About 2 years ago I was watching a TV documentary (here in England) about Ebay and I am sure I saw you folks being interviewed. I have been looking for your shop ever since. I am happy I found this shop, not on Ebay but on a search engine! I will be ordering soon! Scarlett (from Corpus Christi, living in England) NOTE: (we were interviewed by the BBC - British Broadcasting Corporation - several years ago because they loved the uniqueness of our store and products).

Just wanted to thank you for such fantastic service! My order arrived today and I love the towels...thinking I may have to keep one for myself! I am very impressed by your customer service and the immediate help you gave me when I needed more of the beautiful tea towels! Susan - Fayetville, Texas

God bless Texas! I am German, but I love Texas with all my heart. I am living here for 5 years now but I have to go back to Germany now because my visa runs out. It's breaking my heart, believe me. I would rather stay here and become a real Texan :) My question is, if I need some stuff from your company, how much would the postage be to Germany, how much per pound? Can you tell me that? Thank you! God bless all of you.. and Texas, please do not forget me. With much love, Christa (Now this is the kind of person who deserves our "Honorary Texan" award...and it's already in the mail to her).

Our comforter came today!!! (Rustic Lone Star Bedset) Blair called and got them to deliver it to my son's house. I have it on our bed now!!! It is awesome!!! I love it!!!! Blair is back in Florida for a few weeks finishing up some work there, then he will be back home for about one week then off to California for 3 years with the military!!!! Again, thank you so much for the fast work in getting me the new comforter, you guys ROCK!!!! Penny - Bullard, Texas

I will definitely be using your site again, I have a wish list of things that I saw there and would love to add to our home. My husband loves the site also. Count on us for future purchases. I was born in Bryan, and have family in the cities still. We are die hard Aggie Fans, and plan to see a few games this fall. Thank you so much for your help. You, too, are a reason we will return. I don't think in my long history of shopping that I ever have had such personal attention. Denise - Mansfield, Texas

Thanks Russ! You are just awesome! I appreciate your help so very much! I love all the things you have on the site but most of all I love the way you treat your customers...that's how you get return business and I can guarantee, you'll get it from me. Robin - Cleburne, Texas

I just wanted to let you all know that I got my things that I ordered today that was fast. I love the purse especially, can't wait to take it to work =) . And the tub is wonderful as well. And thank you for all the other things you sent as well. I have a flag outside my quarters and it was time for a new one......thank you very much. I will be telling all my friends about your site and I look forward to ordering more things......GOD BLESS - Estella - APO/AE Italy

I received the order last Friday and it was just what I needed. Thanks for all your help. I am sure we will do more business with you. The service was great. It was well packed and everyone thought it was just the rightthing to give as a gift. Gary - San Antonio, Texas

I just received my order and I am so pleased! I plan to make a trip to Germany in August and wanted to give our host and hostess a "gift from Texas." I am very happy with the Texas birdhouse with bluebonnets on the outside. In addition I also ordered a painted tin cowboy boot Christmas ornament. Both are of high quality and will make lovely gifts of appreciation. I am thoroughly pleased with the service as well. I received my order quickly and it was packaged safely as well as cute Texas tissue paper wrapped it all up. All in all, I loved the items and will certainly use The Trading Post of Texas again. Thank you so much for your committment to quality and service. Valerie - Huffman, Texas.

I just had to write a quick email telling you how much I love your store. We're a military family from Texas...currently misplaced on Hawaii. Right now, my husband is overseas on a fifteen month deployment. We have a two year old who was born at our last duty station in Ft. Hood. I was born and raised in Amarillo. Right now I'm a little homesick, and I was searching online and came across your store. I simply cannot express how much it touched me. Being stuck in a different state...a totally different world, without my husband is hard enough, and I will admit finding your store made me shed a few tears. There is something wonderful about being raised in Texas, and our hope and dream is to somehow get back there soon. So come payday, I will be ordering some things. I truly hope you ship to Hawaii! Thank you so much. You have no idea how excited I am to finally bring a bit of home into our house here. Casey - Proud Army Wife

I will send you a better picture tomorrow but I wanted you to see the beautiful metal sign that we gave my in-laws. With the sun located where it was it was hard to capture it. Anyway, I was just thrilled when it came in the mail on Tuesday 7/29. I opened it up and it was so much more than I expected. Picture just don't do these signs justice. I just couldn't be happier! My in-laws will arrive back home today from London and I know they will love it as much as I do. I so appreciate your help and the beautiful work done by the metal art people. You both will have a return customer in me. Robin - Cleburne, Texas (her custom made metal art sign is pictured under our "Texas Metal Art" category under "Custom Signs)

WOW..what service. I have already gotten a shipping notice from DHL. Do you have a store in CS or just on-line? I just put in "Texas bedding" in the search and how lucky to have found you. We are very proud of our son and we thank you and your family as well. My husband was in Gulf War 1 and 2....wish all this mess would get over, but now with Afganistan flaring up and then there is always Iran. We proudly fly the US, Texas, AND Aggie flag in our front yard!!!!! We will stay in touch as we love to get "stuff"!!!!!! Jean - San Antonio, Texas

Thank you! We love your products and will be back for more soon! The door topper, hose spool, and cross are beautiful additions to my home. We live in OK but we are 100% Texans and we miss being there, so these things make us feel at home. Thanks again! Danielle - Elk City, Oklahoma

Dear Linda: You are a goddess! (I know...I probably should have deleted Ann's comment, but we Texans are so humble, I just couldn't force myself to do it...lol). You even care for your customers that cannot seem to operate a well constructed website! I have browsed through all of the pages of your website, now. I will either spend all of my money on Christmas presents here, or I will move back to Texas.. I haven't determined which will happen yet. Thank you for all of your help. Ann - Beaverdam, Virginia

I am really impressed with the attention I received from The Texas Trading Post! At the same day I placed the order I requested an expedite since I was in a hurry. My package was shipped the day after the order was placed and I received in two days. Also the gifts are lovely and I am sure my family in Brazil will enjoy. Thanks once again! Juliane - Northfield, Minnesota

The Armadillo wine holder was a big smash with my Irish friend. His whole family got a kick out of it. Thank you for having such a unique item. Donna - Stonewall , Louisiana

I received my Texas Flag shower curtain and hooks late yesterday evening and just love them. It was exactly what I was looking for and the service was TEXAS Great, shipping time was perfect. What else could you ask for? Vicki - Houston, Texas

Quint and I are back from South Africa. Wow! What a trip. I just wanted to let you know that the Texas rope koozies and other Texas gifts were a hit for gifts for our Professional Hunter and his family. It was nice to exchange authentic Texas made crafts with the South African crafts. As we cooked ostrich steaks on the grill under the South African sky, we branded them with the State of Texas branding iron!! Your immediate order processing and delivery was outstanding and so appreciated. We will definitely shop with you guys again and again. Pam - Liberty Hill, Texas

Just a quick comment, please keep up the good work. I really like the pictures of "HOME". Wish I was there instead of here. Have a great day and God bless. Gunny Sgt. Granberry - Iraq

I just wanted to let you know that I received my items yesterday. Living in Florida, I can't just go to the mall when I want Texas "Stuff." I am so glad I found your website. It's great to know that I can count on you all to ship my orders out in a timely and professional manner. I will definitely be ordering from your website again. Again, thanks for help with my order. Patti - Jacksonville, Florida

I received my order today and I am very pleased with the US Army spinner. Thank you and God Bless the USA! Sharon - Oden, Arkansas

I got my package today!! I screamed when I saw the Texas tissue. Thank you sooo much for taking care of everything. I love all of the stuff. Thank you for the Texas flag and sticker. The sticker made me laugh. Thank you again for taking care of the postage. I will continue to check back with your store for new and updated things. And I plan on telling my family and friends about y'all's store. Thank you very much again! Jamie - U.S. Armed Forces - Korea

I have ordered from you many times and just wanted you to know that this is the best store I have found with Texas and Texas A&M items. I love this store. Please keep doing the same. Teresa - Friendswood, Texas

I received the awesome belt (Texas A&M belt and buckle set) this morning. Thank you for your dedication to make sure the belt was perfect and delivered on time. I know my husband will be very thrilled with the belt. Nancy - Boerne, Texas

It just dawned on me that I did not send a thank you...David loved his gifts for his bday...thanks so much for the awesome service...I appreciate it ever so much...It is hard to find that today...yee haw!!! Gigi - Denham Springs, Louisiana

I found the perfect Texas cross on your website to decorate my newly acquired horse stall in New Mexico. I serve in the Air Force as a rescue helicopter instructor and have lived all over the world, and I always like to take a little taste of Texas with me wherever I go. Thank you for your support to our servicemen, it never goes unappreciated. All the best, Joel - New Mexico

(And a follow up email after he received the cross he ordered) I received the Texas Cross the other day, and it is just perfect. I am really impressed with it. I wanted to say thanks for such a great gift. I"ll certainly be shopping with y'all again. Take care! All the best, Joel

We received the Lazy Susan table. It's beautiful! It looks perfect in our dining room. Thanks so much for getting it here quickly. The delivery guys were very nice and even helped me unwrap it. Kristi - Oklahoma

I love your website and the love story you posted. I get a really positive energy when I visit the web site. I have a feeling y'all are "good people" as my mom used to say! Lisa - Austin, Texas

TEXAS is the greatest place in the world. I'm a big fan of a certain style of Texas Shot Glass and you are the only ones I can find who stock them! Jay - Little Rock, Arkansas

Thank you so much. I received my Texas bedspread today and am so thrilled with it. We are expecting a guest this weekend that has never been to Texas and we have our guest room all decked out in a Texas/Cowboy theme. The bedspread is perfect. Can't thank you enough! Hope to do business with you again! Happy Holidays! Maryanne - Spring, Texas

I just wanted to thank you so very much for the boot stocking I ordered. I love it. My son, Kevin is leaving in Feb. for the Air Force and is very involved with horses so I thought a boot would be a nice surprise on Christmas morning. He will be going to San Antonio for boot camp so a Texas stocking was very appropriate. This may be the last Christmas we spend with him for awhile so I am trying to make it special and you have helped me. I am pleased that he will be going to your great state as I know Texans are very friendly. Keep him in your thoughts and prayers for me and thank you again for the great stocking. Karen - West Milford, New Jersey

I am so excited! That is absolutely great news that the sign has been completed and mailed amidst all this studying for finals! I look forward to seeing it soon, and I will definitely keep in touch and send pictures. Thank you again for everything that you have done. It has been an absolute joy working with you! God Bless. Jessica - Colleyville, Texas (Jessica had a custom metal art sign made for her boyfriend)

Hi Y'all! I just wanted to send a quick email and say how much I love your website!! My husband and I are very proud Texans. He is in the Air Force and we are currently stationed in California and we want everyone to know that we are Texans and will never be anything else. Thanks to your store, we'll be able to do that! I didn't get to do to much shopping this time, had to rush to order for my husband's birthday but will definitely be back! Happy Holidays! Holly - Travis AFB, California GOD BLESS TEXAS!!!

We have had an American flag garden banner in our front flower bed for a few years but strangely have never been able to find a Texas garden banner, despite looking quite a bit. I searched at least a dozen websites online and was just about to give up the search when I found your website. I ordered it 5 days ago and received it today. It was exactly what I have been looking for. I hope my wife appreciates it when she receives it as a birthday gift. Andy - Pearland, Texas

Excited to find your website - we are a military family currently stationed overseas and miss our home state(we were blessed for the last 3 years and were stationed at Ft Sam Houston in San Antonio) - so nice to have found a GREAT site to start ordering from so we can feel a little closer to home!! Jane, APO (she found us through our ad in Texas Monthly Magazine)

I volunteered to help my son find a "Texas" gift to send a young lady he had met while she was visiting from Canada. She had sent him something from Nova Scotia to represent that area, and he wanted something to remind her of Texas. As I was too happily parked on the couch to get up and look in Texas Monthly for a reputable website, I began my search of the web, hoping for the best! Well, I do believe things happen for a reason, and sure enough, I found the most awesome site with a great jewelry set at a fantastic price! My son agreed that it would be perfect. I know she'll love it, and who knows what might develop from here?? Another reason I'm so excited to find the site is because one of my other sons (I have 3!) will be getting married in 2009, and I am already planning to buy some of the other items for my relatives from California when they come for the wedding! Rehearsal dinner is another time I may need some things-- and let's see, what else... ??? Thank you again-- I'll be back!! Susan - Crockett, Texas

I am wanting to know some more info on the "Welcome" sign that you can have personalized! I am planning on being engaged soon and was wanting to "register" for this but wanted to get an idea of the cost of it. The one that y'all had made for yourselves is EXACTLY what I want only with our names of course :) Anyways, was wondering if you wouldn't mind telling me how much it cost! Garrett, my boyfriend, is from Sweetwater TX and we met in college out in Levelland. I am originally from KY, but a Texan at heart ALL THE WAY! We have moved to TN in hopes of my music career blooming and when it does start up, we would LOVE to move back to TX!! We miss it A LOT and it is getting harder to leave TX everytime we visit family and friends! Anyways- now that you have our life story (haha) I really appreciate your getting back to me! I LOVE the website and plan on doing "wedding registry" on here!! Thanks so much and I hope to order lots more stuff!! Lorye - Nashville, Tennessee

I ordered the pocket jewelry for myself and then had to order one for my friend for her b-day this month. My husband has his own cooking team, and we have a cook off next weekend. I will be wearing my pocket jewelry and I'm sure you will be getting several orders from my jealous girlfriends! It's such a wonderful and different piece of jewelry. Thanks!! Tammy - Houston, Texas

I would like to order the "1st republic flag" but it's on backorder. Could you tell me when you expect to have more available. I'm a Texas History teacher and I have to have this for my classroom. I ordered 4 other flags from you yesterday. (We responded that the flag he needed was in stock) Fantastic! As soon as I got your email I got back on your site and ordered the flag. I can't wait to get them. And thanks for the tip about the CDs (Camp Cookie's "Fathers of Texas" CD). I'll be making that order soon. Thanks for your response. You hooked me. The fact that I had a question that was answered the same day personally tells me you know how to treat people. You can bet I'll be back!! I love your site. Ryan - Dallas, Texas

(Ryan's follow up email to us) I got the second package today. First of all, thank you so much for including 2 extra flags. That was extremely thoughtful of you. They're fantastic. My kids have already begun learning about each of the ones I got in the first order and we'll add these tomorrow. They were familiar with the Gonzalez and Alamo flags already but with the others, they're learning about where they came from and why they were used. They love it. And, they go nuts when they actually get to see what the flags looked like. When I pulled out the Alamo and Gonzalez flags that they had seen in their books it sounded like Christmas. It's so much more real when they see it in person as opposed to in a text book. Also, I teach at a school named Terry so they thought the "Terry's Texas Rangers" flag was the coolest thing they'd ever seen. They wanted to use it as our class logo (so we did).

Second, the flags are all unbelievable. I was shocked at the quality. I figured for 10 bucks I'd be getting decent flags with a decent design but nothing fancy. I was wrong. The quality is amazing. I couldn't believe the Gonzalez and deZavala flags were actually stitched. I thought they would just be screen printed.

Thank you again!! I look forward to doing more business in the future. Oh, and I've forwarded your site on to our other Texas History teacher as well as some friends in the district. You guys are great!! Ryan - Dallas

I received my amazing wall display and the T-Shirts! Thank you very much....They are without question the best T-shirts in Ohio!!! I have already had many comments, they are not all good..... But that is to be expected when you are in a less important state than Texas! Ha Ha!I Will be happy to say that I will and forever be a loyal customer and proudly show my Texas stuff off wherever I get moved to next! So thank you again and hope you have a truly blessed and lovely day. SSG Ladd - Chillicothe, Ohio

I left when I was 19, I'm 62 now. I still say fixinto. I loved the facts about TX. I want to come back to the piney woods, but my wife is from here. I took her down, but she wants to be near her family. God I Love TX! Guess I'm screwed, about moving back, but I want to go back down for the Yamboree in October! Love your website. Charles - Lecompton, Kansas

I just wanted to say thanks. I just got my comforter set in and it is awesome! I don't think I have ever changed sheets so quickly in my life! I love it and it will remind me of home and of Texas every day!! I also wanted to thank you for the sticker and the flag. You did not have to do that and it really means a lot to me, as did the hand written note. It makes me proud to be a Texan. Thanks again. SSG Moore, Head Medic, Mosul, Iraq

(Kris ordered a custom metal art sign for a DPS Senior Corporal's going away present) Russ - Thanks so much! The metal art was perfect, the quality is great. I wasn't really sure what to expect, but it was very much worth it! Thank you for all your work getting it to us in time. We will keep you in mind for the future. All the guys really liked it and are asking where I got it. Thanks again! Kris -Texas Department of Public Safety - Buffalo, Texas

(We had a suggestion on how we could improve our website) Sure wish there was a way to email your site to a friend. Maybe you could add "email to a friend" to your home page. (our response) Okey doke...we now have the email option on the front page. It seems there was that option on our admin page and our webmaster never checked it.....thanks so much for helping us be more user friendly. It's input like yours that just helps us keep getting better 'n better! (her response) I am impressed that your company cares what customers think. I am going to email this email to my friend. She loves everything Texas and wants some Texas things for her new home. Harrilyn - Rockport, Texas

I received my order - the box judiciously marked fragile - just fine. The ceramic Texas trash can was very well wrapped in bubble paper and it came through without a scratch. The handwritten "thanks for your business" on the included invoice was a nice touch. If we're in need of more Texas stuff we'll definitely check your web page out first. We'd obviously prefer to do our shopping in the great state of Texas, but this is the next best thing! Thanks again! Kim - Ellicott, Maryland

The item that we ordered from your website arrived. Let me tell you how pleased we were. The cross was exactly as described and far more beautiful than your website pictured. It arrived quickly and was excellently packaged. Thank you so much. The cross was exactly what we were looking for. You have a wonderful company and very high quality items at reasonable prices. Kathy - Mosinee, Wisconsin

Thank you for your prompt service of my order. My wife loves the armadillo wine rack she received for Valentines day. We haven't named it yet, but will have fun coming up with the right moniker. Neal - Topeka, Kansas

Thank you so much for your help with this order. My brother and sister-in-law loved the Texas star and fun how to talk like a Texan book. They just moved to Texas from California and love it. Thanks again. Mary - Huntington Beach, California

The flag I ordered arrived yesterday. Absolutely stunning flag!! Thanks for the fast & expedient service & shipping!! Gary - Matthews, North Carolina

Even the Redhead said we have to go to the golf course to take a picture of this shirt!! She was ear to ear smile when I put it on. I told her you wanted a picture, I thought we'd go out back and shoot a few..........."No, Michael, we have to go to the golf course. This is too cool to not shoot it on the course. And you need to wear your boots, even if they don't have spikes." I am more impressed, if possible, with the Texas Flag golf shirt than I was with the Henley Texas Flag shirt. It's a thang of beauty, and it took 5 strokes off my first round of golf. I'm totally convinced it was th' shirt that helped me make those 8 foot putts that I normally miss. Michael Ray Davis - Orlando, Florida

I just wanted you to know that my husband, who is a DPS Sgt, loved the items I purchased for him for his new office in his new duty station. I appreciate you getting it to me so quickly. Thanks a bunch! Dana - Midland, Texas

I just recieved my order today!!! I love it, and thank you for refunding part of the shipping. I lived in Texas for 31 years and my husband is military so we moved to North Carolina in Jan. this year. I am so home sick, I miss Texas. I found your website when I was googling for Texas crafts. I miss TX so much I had to find stuff to put in my front yard to remind me of TX, :) I am so glad I found your website!! Thank you very much! Patricia - Ft. Bragg, North Carolina

Your customer service is AWESOME, so no worries that we’re unhappy. You’ve gone the extra mile (I was just late in responding initially, my fault!) and I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter!! Thanks so much for your personal interest in the t-shirt order. I will definitely use Texas Trading Post again-and highly recommend you to friends, family and co-workers. Sarah - Hockley, Texas

Just received my Texas Golf Shirt yesterday. Going up North to play in a few tourneys this summer, will definitely let them know where I'm from. Linda @ Russ are good folks to do business with, typical TEXAN'S!! God Bless Texas! Mike - Rusk, Texas

Boy, what service!!!!! I placed this order on Saturday and received it at my home on Monday afternoon. It arrived in perfect condition and is just beautiful. I purchased this as a Mother's Day gift for my daughter (from her dog) and she is just in love with it. I will have no hesitation to shop with you again. Thanks, Shirley - Katy, Texas

My husband LOVES the (Texas Flag Camp) chairs . . . we had them out all weekend and my husband almost fell asleep in one . . which is rare for him to fall asleep sitting down . . he's always go go go !!!!! I'll definitely be ordering more TEXAS stuff in the future, thanks for your awesome customer service, Russ! Heather, Quakertown, PA

The box arrived today -- what a wonderful "care packaged from home!!!" Thank you for the bluebonnet seeds... your timing is perfect, since the stonemasons are finishing up the sidewalks and we'll begin putting in the courtyard landscaping next -- which will include a Texas bluebonnet and mixed wildflower raised bed! As always, everything will be a perfect accessory for the new house (what visitors come in, there is no question that someone in the house is from Texas - once we get the flag poles up in the front circle, they won't even need to come inside for that revelation!!!). Kim - Cobbtown, Georgia (if you look under our "Photos from Mis-Placed Texans", you'll see pictures Kim sent of the drawer pulls she ordered from us a year ago for their new home...and she's still at it!)

Wow...can't believe how fast this shipped. I bought it Saturday and mind you Sundays usually aren't work days. My package got to me Tuesday. Plus no let downs, you get what you see online. Definitely not a place that will let you down when you open your package. You can really tell that they took their time packaging it also so you don't have to worry about your stuff being bent, broken, or what not. Also sent me multiple emails assuring me of what I purchased, where it was, and when it would get here. All around GREAT website and I will definitely be shopping here again as soon as the wife lets me spend some more money. I love TEXAS decor and my house is full of it. Be proud to be a TEXAN, and show it. This is a great website to do so. Thank you guys so much for your great products, low prices, and fast service. I will be ordering again very soon. Nick -San Antonio

I just placed my first order with you yesterday... y-e-s-t-e-r-d-a-y and it arrived today - - - ONE DAY SERVICE!! Wow!! And the products themselves look great! You and I are definately going to be doing more business - I'm impressed! Richard - Killeen, Texas

I love my red lantern lights. They are much nicer than I thought they would be. Also, I wanted them by a certain date, because we were going camping, and they came sooner than I expected. Thanks much:) Shirley - Elroy, Wisconsin

Linda & Russ- I am happy to add a testimonial to your wonderful products and expeditious service. My guest bathroom is slowly transforming into a taste of Texas. I only wish I had known about you when I was living in Hampshire, England! But now, at least, all my English relatives and guests will have a taste of Texas, even though they are visiting us in southern Nevada!! I'm sure I'll be ordering more soon. I MISS TEXAS and at least you help to ease the pain..Sherry - Pahrump, Nevada

THANK YOU for the quick service! I love the items and I will enjoy giving them with pride this Christmas! Everything is just perfect! I am so excited to have found THETEXASTRADINGPOST.COM !!!!!!!! LeeAnn - Merkel, Texas

Got your note about me becoming one of your favorite repeat customers... Hahaha!! Rest assured, I ain't done yet. I do prefer to purchase stuff locally rather than on-line, but I keep finding stuff on your website that I can't find in the "specialty" stores around here. I guess that speaks volumes for your class act inventory. Also wanted to let you know the cabinet arrived today and I was very impressed - thanks for the speedy order processing!! Rick - Killeen, Texas

Hi there, the postman only rang once this morning.....the Texas flag shower curtain & the Texas flag bath mat just look great and makes us recalling a fantastic time we spent in Texas this summer....thx to all of you! Robert & Claudia from Basel Switzerland wish you a great day.

I would like to let you know that I really enjoyed the stuff that I bought from your store. I loved everything, thank you for the wonderful Texas Flag that you sent me, it is raised high on my desk. The Texas Flag shirt was a huge hit, while horseback riding in Canton, GA. All my friends saw it on facebook and I have recommended you guys to a lot of my fellow co-workers. Thanks Again..You made my month..More orders to come from me.  SSgt Betty Mendoza - Raeford, NC

(This testimonial came after we sent out an order and BEFORE we ran her credit card)   WOW!! how cool is THAT- he hasn't run my card yet- didn't know ANYbody ran a business THAT way- I will most ASSUREDLY do business with y'all again & I will recommend you to EVERYBODY I know!!   Thanks so much- you've restored my faith in business!! GOD BLESS YOU!!    Colma - Winfield, Alabama

I was looking for the finishing touch for our barn, something to reflect my Texas heritage despite living in Louisiana. Thankfully your site carried just the piece to tastefully finish our barn while telling passersby "a Texan lives here." Thanks! Michael - Louisiana

You can tell everyone that I have had excellence service and I enjoy your
products very much. I am working in Kuwait for the Department of Defense I meet people from all over the world and the things that I just ordered will be presents for some the different department heads from different countries. Robert - U.S. Army - Kuwait

AS TRANSPLANTED TEXANS LIVING IN NEW HAMPSHIRE IT WAS GREAT TO DO BUSINESS WITH GOOD-OLD FOLKS WHO ARE NOT TRYING TO GET RICH OFF THE WORKING MAN. THANKS AND GOD BLESS TEXAS. Tim - Alton, New Hampshire

WoW! I wish everything that I purchased could come right out of our great state of Tx! Down here we are known for our southern hospitality and that's just what I got from the Trading Post of Tx! I will absolutely be a return customer. Y'all were able to put that friendly feel and customer service on a web site that is often hard to even find in person! The hand written note when I received my order was a nice touch as well. Thanks A Bunch! Jessica - Conroe, Texas

Linda and Russ - I received my first order just the other day and I am very pleased!! The Army wall plaque is for my son who is stationed at Ft. Hood - I'm sure he will love it, the Live, Laugh, Love Tile art stone is just beautiful!! I ordered it for myself (I am a Christmas baby) and I love it! I am sure my father will love the State of TX Seal art stone - he can put it in his office. Just ordered another wall plaque for my daughter's boyfriend who is a Marine - his mom can hang it on her wall at home while he is deployed - maybe she will get comfort in having it around. Y'all have a wonderful holiday!! Hope to do more business with you in the future! Theresa - Damon, Texas

We were thrilled with the Texas A&M necklaces we got from you! They came so fast in the mail that I was able to give them for Christmas gifts on time! Thanks! Tish '84 - Slaton, Texas

I received my order today, and I am thrilled with everything I ordered. I ordered a handbag, the one with the Texas flag for my daughter's birthday. I know she will love it! Most of her house is decorated in a Texas theme, so I know you will be receiving orders from her. Thank you so much for your promtness in filling my order. Ann - Beaumont, Texas

Just received my shipment today! What a wonderful surprise at the end of a hard day to get mail from home. Thank you for the added bonus of the Zavala Texas flag dropped inside - it will look great on my job site in the middle of Djibouti!!! I do have one question/request...my package arrived with the perfect size Texas shaped flag. It is the perfect size for putting on my hard hat, my question is...do you have those available for sale? The one on your web sight was stated as being larger. I would love to get a few of those stickers for myself and a couple fellow Texans working with me. Is that possible? (Obviously, we're sending Terry and our fellow Texans a bunch of these stickers that we put on the outside of our packages). Thanks for the great and family friendly service. Terry - Camp Lemonier, Djibouti

Dear Linda & Russ: We just received our dinner bell. We love it! Thank you so much for the prompt service. The gentleman (Russ) who assisted me on the telephone to place my order was nothing but extremely nice and professional. We will certainly continue doing business with your company. Especially during this time when companies are so impersonal it is so refreshing to do business with a company like yours! Thank you again. Sincerely, Jennifer - El Paso, Texas

I received my package today, and I am very happy with the products and with the prompt and friendly service. Thank you! Margaret - San Antonio, Texas

Kathy - Huntington Beach, California

Thank you for a great transaction. Everything worked seamlessly, I got exactly what I had ordered in perfect condition and I appreciate the work that was done to be sure they were protected in transit.

Mike - Cameron Park, California

The bedspread arrived very quickly! My 7 year old just loves it. It really adds to his cowboy room! We will keep an eye on your website for additional decor. Thanks! Tamara - Midland, Texas

Our products arrived one day before scheduled and the contents were packed securely within an inch of itself. Each piece was as unique as the site's description and only looked better in person. We received at least two emails confirming and alerting us of the product's arrival. The customer service was top drawer. Thanks to all on your staff for helping us have a little of our beloved Texas in Wisconsin. Kevin and Cheryl - McFarland Wisconsin

I love your store and I would love nothing more than to visit College Station and give y'all a big Texas hug. Unfortunately my husband and I are stationed in Germany currently. Browsing around made me so homesick! Thank you for your efforts when my girlfriend and I purchased from your store while we were in Iraq and had the best decorated tent you ever did see! Kaley - Germany

Wanted to let you know that I received my order the day after we spoke! WOW! Thanks! Dee - Wimberly, Texas

I'm so glad we found your site, it helps us keep the Texas flowing around our home no matter where the Army takes us! Gina - Olympia, Washington

Very prompt and courteous service. A very happy customer. Many thanks! Sharon - Houston, Texas

What a pleasure is has been placing my first order with you. The sales associate gave excellent advise re size over the phone, and the order was delivered to my home well within the estimated time. The quality of the shirt and flag that I ordered definitely meet my expectations. A BIG TEXAS thank you for your commitment to customer service and satisfaction. Anne - Texas

OMG, I can't believe the wonderful customer service I have received from you. It's so great to know there are still companies like yours still out there. I will be needing a few more things, (we are redecorating) and as I'm sure you can imagine there are not alot of places that sell western/Texan items in IL. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR UPDATES. Heda - West Dundee, Illinois

I just received the 2 Texas shaped pans. I am absolutely thrilled. I have one exactly like it, same foundry, that I received almost 30 years ago as a wedding gift. I use it to bake cornbread in when we have soup or chili. Both my daughters, Aggie grads, live out of the state and have been wanting their own pans. I tried to find them last year to no avail, so this Christmas they are going to be very excited. Gig 'Em Ags! Karen - Richmond, Texas

I was really excited to find your web site. We are having a Christmas door decorating contest and the theme this year is Christmas in Texas. So, your site was perfect for some ideas and purchases. I love the boot stockings and probably will be purchasing additional ones in the near future. You have some great items! Deborah - Galveston, Texas

Just wanted to let you know that I just received my order today. The service was very fast and the Texas items are wonderful -- just what I was looking for. Next time I am down College Station way I am going to definitely come by your store. Thanks again for the fine service. Martha - Groesbeck, Texas

(Jayme and her husband are in the military and they are expecting their first child. She commented that her husband wished their son could be born on Texas soil, so we sent her some...) Just wanted to say I received all my Texas baby stuff, and the misplaced Texan stickers and the Texas soil and I think it actually made my husband's eyes get a little moist! I thought it was incredibly sweet you included the soil and stickers, you just don't get service and care like that with big companies; and my husband thought it was great that there are people who love Texas as much as he does. He had me put the soil in our hospital bag already and carefully washed and packed the Texas attire to bring his son home in. Again, thank you so much. You know I will be back for more Texas stuff and we have been spreading the word to other misplaced Texans. Jayme - San Diego, California

Great price and received my purchase quickly after ordering. Getting the package in the mail with a Texas sticker was a nice touch for a home-sick Texan living in New Orleans. :) I also have much respect for the extra care you give to military orders. Reading your website and you seem like really good people who I'm happy to give my business to. Thanks! Chris - New Orleans, Louisiana

I just wanted to let you know how pleased I am with my order. The plaque looks exactly as portrayed in it's picture and I can't believe how quick it got here. Thank you for your great customer service. Thank You! Janet - Burleson, Texas

Received my order 3 days after I placed it and I live in Charlotte NC!!.....everything was just what I expected....quality was excellent....this displaced Texan (born and raised in Snyder) will definitely be a repeat customer....thanks again for the great products and a neat web site....Dennis - Charlotte, NC

I love everything I received from the cufflinks to the armadillo ornament. Great fast shipping and it's exactly as pictured and described. I'll shop with you again. Rebecca - New Boston, Illinois

I just placed the first of what I'm sure will be more orders from you. I'm currently stationed in Iraq and will be leaving on/about the 8th of December to head back to Texas. Just wanted to send a note to ensure that there's enough processing time to allow getting the gifts here by the time I head home. These are some going away gifts for the Iraqi Federal Police leadership and civilian contractors that I've worked with over the last year here at Camp Dublin. Bryan, U.S. Army - Iraq

Thanks so much for my order! All my friends love the Texas Comforter set and asked where I got it! It was even prettier than it looked in the pictures. Thank you for the fast service and great quality! I can't wait to order again! Carol - Arlington, Texas

I just got the blanket and love it! I also wanted to say thanks for paying the $8.10 for shipping and the Texas sticker that came with the package. I plan on purchasing more merchandise from the store in the future. I plan on returning to the states in August at the latest, maybe I'll stop by the store on my way to Houston sometime. I also appreciate the military discount. Thanks again and Happy Holidays. Michael - U.S. Army - Iraq

I bought your Texas Shirt (Long Sleeves) and loved it. Great quality - Made in the USA. Wore it to our Country Line Dance party and had many compliments. Wore it to visit my daughter in Texas -her in-laws raved about it. Keep up the good work. I will be back for more goods. Thanks!
Tom - Valley Stream, New York

I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate your web site. Being a mis-placed Texan, I was having a hard time finding a license plate for my sister's car. Thanks to you, she now has TWO! There is so much on your site I would love to have, I will spread your address around and hope my family takes the hint! Thanks again, Wanda - Murfreesboro, Tennessee

Thank you so much for the prompt shipment. The ornament has arrived and it is beautiful. Cannot wait to give it to my aunt tomorrow before she heads back to Canada on Sunday. Louise - Austin, Texas

My rug arrived and it is BEAUTIFUL! I ordered it Cyber Monday and it arrived yesterday. That kind of service deserves praise. Thank you and I wish you, your staff, family and friends a wonderful Decemver and 2011. Martha - Austin, Texas

Thanks so much for the fast shipment!! The boot stocking was much better than expected and super nice. Nickie - Dade City, Florida

Received the package on Monday!!! He was with me unfortunatley, but he loved it just the same!!! It is now on his "ode to "me" wall", and looks just great!!!!!!!! He really liked it when it made it on the wall!!!!!!! Thanks and Merry Christmas - Angel - Cleburne, Texas (she ordered a Department of Public Safety Trooper metal art sign for her husband)

I received my order in record time and thank you for correcting the street address (loved your humor, especially the comment about dyslexic elves!!!!). The Christmas tree Texas ornament is beautiful, and I applaud the artist. This is a gift for my granddaughter-in-law who resides in Florida. I know she will cherish it, as I informed her it is handmade. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!! Carolyn - San Antonio, Texas

We have ordered several times from The Trading Post of Texas for gifts for AAF Dallas luncheon speakers and panelists. The customer service is amazing and we find the products to be top quality, easy to order and prompt in delivery. We will continue to use The Trading Post of Texas as our first place to search for executive level gifts for our organization. Highly recommend the Texas Seal metal paper weight. The craftsmanship is exemplary. Kelly - AAF Dallas Board Member

Received my package - thanks for the quick turn-around. Got just exactly the item I wanted - packaged carefully, and at a good price. Thanks. Donna - Orange, Texas

First, I would like to say thank you very much for your generosity to all service members stationed abroad. I'm a Marine, stationed in Okinawa, Japan, and I have used your website many times to help me cope with the fact I'm over 6000 miles away from home. Your website has allowed my family and me to have a little piece of Texas every where we go. Secondly, after receiving the (Texas Flag) guitar case, my son has been the "talk of the local music school." However, in particular, one of my young Marines (LCpl Simpson) from Houston, TX, has asked me repeatedly where he can get one. LCpl Simpson has been playing the guitar for over 10 years and plays at all of the Squadron's social events (Christmas parties, Beach Bashes, etc.) and various other local establishments. With your permission, I would love to present the second guitar case to him. I would also include a picture of him with it, and a Thank You note. Sincerely, Gunnery Seargeant Ware, US Marine Corps

I received my order today. It got here much quicker than I anticipated and I am very pleased with the quality. Ordering online was easy (and I appreciated the discount honoring the Texas Declaration of Independence!). I will be ready for San Jacinto Day now with the perfect apparel! THANKS!!! Pam - Olney, Texas

I can't express enough how much I appreciate your service and follow through on this order. Refunding a small shipping difference shows me that you take incredible care and pride in your operation. I admire that. It just so happens that this Texas charm bracelet is a 10 year anniversary gift for my wife. I had two requirements for this gift, 1- it had to be inexpensive, and 2- It had to be Texas themed. The reason for these 2 requirements is that we are, as I write this, literally packing boxes to move to The Woodlands, TX in June. So we are saving every penny we can to make this happen. This charm bracelet was the perfect expression without breaking the bank. We look forward to someday visiting your store in person as proud Texas residents. Thank you again and God bless. Thankfully yours - Alex - Pembroke Pines, Florida

I have received the (Marine metal art) emblem and it is absolutely gorgeous! It is displayed in my living room near my NCO swords. I ride these days with the Northern Illinois Leathernecks MC. All the riders are former Marines or Navy Corpsman who served with the Marines. I will be sure to take it with me so they can see it. Photos do not do it justice. The colors are amazing. Thank You again. I will be ordering the Navy emblem for my son in law soon. Nada - Gurner, Illinois

I couldn't believe I already got my order this afternoon!. Very pleased with the product and service. I'm in the military and living in Texas isn't possible for us right now. So, thank you for helping us get a little something from home so quickly. Sincerely, Robert - Ridgecrest, California

Thank you both and may the GOOD LORD GOD continually bless you both and all those whom you love and care about. I received my gorgeous leather luggage tags today....I am sooooooooooooooo HAPPY!!! ...I'm HAPPY with these beautiful leather tags which I purchased for my husband..... the tags were exactly as described & pictured on the website, I'm HAPPY with their super speedy delivery.....and I'm HAPPY with the friendly great customer service I got when I called inquiring about them before I placed the order. Normally I get antsy about online ordering but this was one of the few most pleasant and expedient experiences I have ever had in over 10 years of online ordering! And at such a great price too! I would most definitely do business with them again and again and again and again........you should too! The grateful and Happy Cowgirl ....stuck in Miami Florida!

I just received the Texas star necklace and earrings I ordered from your store. I absolutely love them!! They are even better than I expected. I'm originally from Fort Worth, Texas (lived there 54 years) and moved here to Bismarck, N. Dakota 2 years ago so I am kind of home sick for Texas sometime. This jewelry really hits the spot. My sister recommended your store to me because she bought from you as well. I will definitely recommend you to all my friends - Texas or anywhere. Thank you! Cindy - Bismark, North Dakota

Thanks so much for your most excellent customer service and prompt attention to our order. We appreciate this opportunity to get to know you and Texas Trading Post. And we likewise look forward to shopping with you again! Carolyn - Hartco Insurance, Houston, Texas

I wanted to let you know I have just received our Texas Comforter set. I really love it. I have been fighting cancer since the holidays and I am making my bedroom the Texas room. Thank you so much for a lovely set. Carla - Biloxi, Mississippi

Our order of Grub Rub arrived today in perfect condition. We will be traveling to Carlinville, Illinois on the 16th to cook a hog for our friends party on the 18th and the Grub Rub will make it delectable! Thank you for your prompt attention to our order...we appreciate that so much! Paul and Sarah - Fulton, Mo

WELLLL, you've done it again! I ordered a Texas flag bar-be-cue apron for my husband a couple of days ago, and it arrived today. Y'all are almost too good to be true! I can't begin to THANK YOU enough for your dedication to highest quality customer service. The rest of the retail world could learn a lot from y'all. Ann - Arp, Texas

We finally got it. My dad was extremely happy and in tears because the piece was exactly what he wanted and it was so beautifully crafted. Thanks again for all your help in locating this item, you have made my dad one of the happiest people in the world. Keep up the awesome customer service. Melissa - San Antonio, Texas (we had a custom sign made for her dad and the USPS lost it for about a week....)

This place rocks for hard to find, unique, special gifts for your family. Thank You for all you do. I will certainly be back often.....Ron - Mocksville, NC

I'm from Texas and moved to Minnesota 2 yrs ago. I miss Texas so much. When I saw your web site I was thrilled. My order came in today and I LOVE everything. I have had so many compliments on my table. I look forward to shopping with you for a long time. I have already started picking Christmas gifts. Thank You so much! Debbie - Shoreview, Minnesota

Love everything I have received. Best Customer Service I have received from anywhere. Proud Texan and proud to display your products to prove it! Thank You! - Sandra - Lumberton, Texas

Good Morning! Aaron received his First Republic of Texas flag last night, and absolutely LOVED it! It looks amazing! The gift wrap looked awesome, and the handwritten gift card added the perfect personal touch! Thanks so much for everything! Y'all will definitely be seeing us shop with you again! Amanda - Lexington, Kentucky

I have received the exchanged "Men's Texas Shirt". I appreciate your courtesies in this transaction. The shirt is THE BEST QUALITY in this type shirt I have seen. I wouldn't expect anything less from a true Texan. If you are a transplant Texan, you have assimilated very well. As a native Texas, I am quick to chastise poor courtesies and service. I am equally as quick to praise a JOB WELL DONE!
Respectfully, Bob, Mont Belvieu, Texas

We received our order and my husband loves his Texas Chef hat. He can't wait to wear his Texas apron and chef hat at our next family cookout. We love all of your products and we have recommended your site to many, many friends. Thanks for the wonderful selections.

Kay and Jerry - Whitney, Texas

Just received my first order. The ball caps are really quality for the price. Also great Texas Christmas cards. Real hands on customer service. Recently moved to Amarillo from Washington state and really like Texas and the people are so friendly. Will be buying more as gifts and to show off my new Texas roots before next visit to Pacific Northwest. Thomas - Amarillo, Texas

On our Indian paintbrushes: "Beautiful flowers! perfect in every way! Looks EXACTLY like the REAL THING!! Wonderful! Love it!!! Can't say enough great things about the product and this place!!!" Jennifer ~ Dallas, Texas
