WE HAVE SUSPENDED BACKORDERS ON MANY LINES AT THIS TIME.

Due to unprecedented demand, most items will never appear on the “in stock” report at this time. As many
of you know, the few items that appear go very quickly when the report comes out.
Backorders have priority when product arrives and we never seem to clear those on most items. Many
items are still not coming in at all, but we are doing the best we can with what does arrive.
Please put what you want on backorder vs waiting for the “in stock” report. This is far from ideal, as it
would simplify our lives significantly to just have the products when you call, but this is the hand we are
all dealt at this time. We have no idea on when this might start to flow more freely.
Please verify your backorders and get what you need on backorder.
POWDER BACKORDERS REMAIN SUSPENDED AT THIS TIME.

This will be a long process to fill and we will allocate as product arrives, but temper expectations. Thank you for your understanding.
