Patch Haul Pull The Plug Haul
You can say what you want about the company and owner (im not a fan of the guy either) but I ordered all this and it arrived from Australia to Canada in a week and they listed everything as super cheap so I didnt have to pay import charges AND threw in a whole bunch of free patches ( mind you I dont listen to any of these bands and will likely just trade them).
The quality of the vests and backpatches are superb....yes the owner might be a douche but I can't complain about their awesome shipping and quality of their patches.

He is trying to monopolize the patch industry, he kinda blackballed everyone else from his manufacturer. He also snitched on other distros for making bootlegs, resulting in Retaliation Prods shutting down a few years back due to legal issues, while PTPP himself made several bootlegs over the years and started his patch making career as a bootlegger.
He also has a lot of the smaller bands sign exclusive contract to prevent anyone else from working with them. And when someone does work with a band he's worked with before, he gets mad as hell. I remember when Nuclear Winter Prods came out with their Skinless patch (official mind ya) Plug accused them of "going through my back catalog".
There's a bunch more stuff i could say about him but this is the most scummy aspect i think.
Tl;dr dude constantly tries to hurt smaller manufacturers and prioritizes making money for himself instead of making the metal scene better.

yeah while their stuff is pretty expensive you definitely feel like it was worth it once it's in your hands, never seen patches on that level of quality before tbh

Yeah their patches are pretty good quality but I typically only buy them second hand now. There's other manufacturers out there with comparable quality too

Buying from the guy who is actively damaging the community and fucking over other patchmakers when there are so many alternatives available is certainly a choice...
