I agree with getting a sponsor page up so there's quick access to the banners. i.e. ThatfishPlace (no vendor forum), the only place I see where we can click thru is via the banner ad, but that rotates. So either we have to keep refreshing until we see the banner or we end up just typing it into the browser and MR misses the clickthru.

Under Tools, there's a link for Our Sponsors.

I do give vendors and sponsors first shot and will continue to do so, however if they do not get back to you, what do I do?

Here is a example: My post #9

And on the other hand, I have dealt with vendors that have gone out of there way for me such as HOF and Aquatic Express and I will continue to support and buy from them...

I agree with Bikinisalt... it is really up to the vendors to keep up with their customer service

You don't have to support ALL the MR vendors, just those you get along with

I would have never thougth to look there for the sposor list, I'll be the first to admit it; I can be lazy, if its not right in from of me I won't go looking unless I really need the answer....look at the search button and that is on the navbar.

I have had nothing but good experiences with the MR vendors.

I know all vendors have to be sponsors, but are all sponsors vendors?

No.

So who is more important to support, my guess I would say the vendors of MR.

I would like to add another vendor that I have dealt with who has accommodated me. NYAquatic(Michael Stern). How many sponsors here on MR right now will meet you at 7am on a Sunday morning or 10:30pm at night in their house? Not many...

I try to buy from vendors of mr whenever possible, just things that they can not price compete with are items I get from other places, but if the prices are close I always go with MR vendors...:-)
