Didn't order from them, but I did contact them about buying some
quarter sawn white oak. They told me that all their quartersawn oak
was cut at 45 degrees and did I know not all quartersawn material
displayed a fleck pattern. Maybe I was just confused by their
terminology but in my mind that put the boards in a rift sawn
catagory . I ordered elsewhere so can't really recommend one way or
another. Just thought it odd.

Thanks Mike. I've had some email exchanges, and they seem to know what
I want.
I'm trying to get away from the *mart/big box suppliers. I just can't
get what I want, and my needs are simple, plain sawn, in the rough. I
bought some ash, from a local supplier, who no longer carries hardwood
in the rough, and now I spend way to much time sanding out planer
marks.
So I'll give these folks a try, and if I'm disappointed, I'll try
someone else.
Wish me luck.
