Clarification about the sale quantities

Clarification about the sale quantities

2006-07-07 by Paul Schreiber

The stocking numbers loaded into the catalog do *NOT MEAN* that number of 
kits/modules is sitting on the shelf, ready to be shipped (I wish!).

What it DOES mean is this is how many of each module we can offer based on 
inventory, both *current* and *on order*. Now, *on order* means it can take up 
to *8 weeks* for your module to arrive. Even if you order it at 12:01AM Monday.

Since the shopping cart sequentially assigns an order number (and there is a 
time/date stamp) it's not too hard to ship first-come, first-served.

Also note: the Indiana facility is on plant shut-down from July 10 to July 17, 
so *nothing* will get shipped that week.

If this sale is anything like the last one, it will take *months* to get 
everything shipped. But you WILL get your stuff.

Okay then, to ask the obvious question: will you accept "back orders" at the
sale price if any of the stocking numbers fall to zero?

No. When the quantity hits zero, then *that's it*. The shopping cart will 
actually remove the item off the selection pages :)
