Since everyone may be sick of all my post on cables, I promise this is the
last one for a while.

Some facts to ponder:
1890 cables were ordered.
280 different combinations of color/shrink/length

Smallest order = 4 cables
Largest order = 128 cables
Average order = 39 cables
Number of countries = 6

Total number of mistakes by Rapco = 0
Total errors by me = 5 cables
- 1 was filled out of my own personal order
- 4 blue / black instead of black / blue - free to customer

Total estimated and collected for shipping $690
Actual cost of shipping including postage, boxes & packing tape = $680.63
2 customers got free shipping:
- Russell Brower for being 1st to order
- John Parks for being the guy to push us over 1000

Discount negotiated for over 1000 cables = $907
1/2 of that returned to customers as instant rebate
1/2 went to offset Paul's cost of logo printing

Larry's profit = enough to make this well worth my trouble.

Next planned cable order late June 2002 for delivery in July.
