About two weeks ago, I emailed 'The Flag Dude' to see about purchasing some 25/28mm A.W.I. flags. Shortly after sending my email, I received an electronic reply that the company would contact me shortly. I am still waiting for that reply.
So, I guess for what-ever reason, Rick is no longer currently available/able to make/sell flags.

Can anybody recommend another reliable dealer in the U.S.A. that carries high quality 25/28mm A.W.I. flags? They do not need to be 'finished' flags, but only the flag sheets.

Thanks much!

Vaubanner Graphics.

Another vote for Vaubanner – they are in Canada, not the US, but I have always had good service from them and the flags are good quality

Jcfrog15 Feb 2016 2:39 p.m. PST

Yes Vaubanner. Western canadians, always reliable.;)

Of course warflag.com is still an option

As long as Warflag continues to feature the "Piss on the British" flag, I would call the entire website both dubious and ludicrous.

Can't beat the price…

I am not familiar with Vaubanner flags. Many of you above folks seem very enthusiastic about them. I am looking for nice looking flags (better than those on Warflag).
I was hoping that Rick O'Brian would have gotten back to me, but he has not. So, I can only assume that the Flag Dude isn't producing flags at this time?

I saw him at Fall In and asked about an email I sent. He said with getting ready for the show he didn't get to it. He then asked me to send a reminder email and I received a message that he would respond shorty… that was at the end of November and still no word. I'll be curious to see if he will be at Cold Wars.

He still produces flags and attends shows. From the folks on TMP, what he doesn't do is rerspond to emails.

Why not order the best, GMB. Yes, in the UK, but easy to order and quick to ship with only delays I've experienced during the Christmas offer period.

gmbdesigns.com

I have thought about GMB flags. Does anybody know of a U.S. distributor or must they be only order from the U.K.?

How do GMB flags compare with those by Vaubanner Graphics?

Vaubanner are very nice, great graphics and variety. They tend to be a tad smaller than GMB which some people say are oversized. I agree, GMB are big, but excellent quality.
Vaubanner are a lot less expensive.

Question: Are how does the size of Vaubanner 25/28mm A.W.I. era flags compare to those of 'The Flag Dude'?
