Subject: Interesting cable order facts

Interesting cable facts:
Largest cable order = 128 cables
Smallest cable order = 5 cables
Average number ordered = 41 cables
Most popular length = 3 foot
Most popular cable = 2 foot, blue with black shrink
227 different combinations of length, color, & shrink.
Number of days left to place your order = 4.
Cable shipping will be 2 lbs. for box and packing, plus 1 lb. per 5 cables.
I spent some time at the PO with the scales averaging this out. Small
orders will probably ship US Postal Priority. Larger orders will be cheaper
to ship UPS ground. I am assuming that everyone wants the cheapest
reasonable-time shipping.
I am working up the shipping rates tomorrow night and plan to start sending
invoices out the end of this week.
