I feel stripped off Report this review

Ive heard for years what amazing thread this is and I'm not much of thread worker, I was shown how to do a venom stop with magic makers reels and owned tarantula2 for a while, and played around with loops and ties over the two decades I've been hanging round brick and mortars and sites like Penguin when they come as a bonus.
I recently thought I should invest in a venom reel since magic makers break often and are pretty frustrating to repair and often just get tossed until i drop another 25 bucks or more an impulse buy because that ring stop is sick and rings are my thing.
I was super stoked to see vectra back on penguin after many years of it being out of stock. RUMORED to be the best
What you are supplied with is unstripped nylon, a"$30.00" 38 minute instructional video in which Fearson spends all but 2 minutes or so on how to strip this stuff and after an hour of not getting much more than a foot or so of thread and a jumbled knot of nylon I'm now looking this nylon rats nest I paid$25.00 for and a venom unit (don't even wanna mention that price, to keep me from throwing this computer against the wall as I write this) with nothing but frustration and a feeling of being ripped off by another lazy creator. I wasn't in the market for a diy project and feel the hype around this stuff is just another circle jerk of the magic industry good ol boy fraternity.

Did you ever find a thread that works best for venom. This is exactly why I was looking at this thread

Dudes, chill. I am reasonably sure the stock thread on Venom reels is most similar to the X2 Vectra line (for stage). Not this one. Ekaterina Magic talks about this in her Venom review. The X2 does not require stripping either.
