Sorry, missed that Ed, No word as of yet on shipping but they told me our shipment would go out by Saturday. I am still hoping by the end of this coming week to be back in stock on all of the ones we are out of. Shipping is pretty quick, actually amazingly quick once they are handed off to the shipper.
We order these 5Kpcs at a time as a minimum and try to keep 1K pcs on the shelf at reorder time. We got hit hard right at the cusp of the Chinese new year though and found ourselves with our pants down. Last year we had pretty much the same thing but we were on a much smaller volume so it didnt carry over with the increase. Will certainly watch this going forward though.
Was just showing The Mrs the back stock on glass I have built up for our most popular sizes earlier today, I finally feel comfortable with the level we are at now on those. This is a whole crazy game I have been struggling to learn, hell our shop bill for Caps, IBTipsys and IBTpro 22's for 2013 was more than our home and property is worth. We keep an eye moving forward though not only will we continue to offer the quality and price point but we are also looking to innovate so new products will continue to pop up. I will just keep juggling what comes in and where I can improve or expand I certainly will.
Sorry if that was a bit much, a little wordy tonight but honestly wanted to get that all out there. Working on something now that might be quite special if it proves out to be viable.
