Stock Levels. How it works.4/22/2008
Our stock level is shown in real time and is directly connected to the database in our warehouse.
The second an item stock level is modified, the stock level in the website will show the change.

As an example ;
If we sell a product, let’s call it 'Widget 25mm' and we purchase 1000 units from the factory we will add 990pc of 'Widget 25mm' to our database. (We add less than is received to account for stock spoilage, warranty returns, and other possible issues).

When the customer purchases the widget 25mm, it will reduce the stock by the quantity ordered until such time that so many are purchased the stock level reaches 0 at which point it becomes 'backordered'.
If a customer purchases the widget 25mm with a stock level of 0 or less or there are less in stock than they purchased the order will become 'backordered' and will not be printed from the warehouse printers until the stock level exceeds the level purchased.
If a customer purchases a widget 25mm it becomes reserved for their order.
Even though the stock level may show -500, there will still be stock on the shelf, reserved for previous orders made prior to the stock showing less than 1.
 
Italian customers, Please read!4/21/2008
To all our Italian customers.
Italian customs have begun to check and screen all EMS parcels and most registered mail parcels into Italy.
We strongly suggest Italian customers DO NOT purchase large orders in 1 shipment. Rather they make 2 or 3 smaller shipments to help avoid customs delays.
Also, Italian customers must include a FULL and CORRECT phone number. Failure to do so will result in the Italain customs service sending the parcel back to us.

Thank you.
Support.

Support Questions & Answers.4/13/2008
Q: How long does it take to deliver?
A: Air Mail can take from 5 days to 45 days, depending on the country. Countries with strong customs and tax issues can take longer than normal. Parcels to Italy, France and Brazil can take as long as 40 days. USA, Turkey, Belgium and Switzerland can be as fast as 5 days.

Q: Why is my order still not sent.
A: Please log into your account and check the order status. If the order has been printed though not posted, this indicates that the warehouse are preparing your order and getting it packed ready for shipment.

Q: My order has been on backorder for too long!
A: We can change your order at any time. We can also refund or credit you for the items if you wish. However refunds are not performed until 14 days after the purchase of the backordered item. When an out of stock item is sold it will warn you that you may need to wait 14 days.
 
Jeti price war?4/12/2008
Customers have noticed that Hobby Lobby has begun a campaign called 'Jeti Price War'. Speculation has it that this is a knee-jerk reaction to our recent sales on Jeti BESC. We are unaware of such events and are in no way perpetuating a price war. We do hope however that our realistic prices give the high markup vendors a wakeup call.
 
Holiday Notice4/11/2008
