So while I love the support of the BOTL I like to try and do things on my own ya know not wear out my welcome etc... But this is wtf I get which seems to be shammish to me as both sites showed available or a ship date.

Sall good but just disappointing

That is pretty sucky right there. I need to compile a list of online vendors whose inventory updates automatically, not manually. And perhaps these are automatic, but more like semi due to the lag. Meh

Well seeing how Drew is raising prices dramatically maybe by doing it this way you have locked in the price. Sucks you have to wait but if they don't charge you until they come in and you get them for the price they offer then good things come to those who wait. Not saying I like this policy just trying to look at the bright side of a shitty deal.

How "dramatically" are we talking?

Grapevine talk but from what I heard it's quite a bit.

I got the same email from Pipes and Cigars. It's been a full week since I ordered and they took my money. Needless to say I was pissed. Is it really acceptable in our 'digital' age to take 7 days to notify a customer about backordered inventory, especially after collecting payment?

I really hope not. $10-$11 No.9 are great, $12-$13 still really good, $14+ I can't say I'd be buying too many more. I may have to do a little stockpiling while I can still pick them up in the $12-$13 range.

Forty and fabes, that blows. I think it's pretty unacceptable to take 7 days to notify someone, especially if they've already pulled the funds.

Lets not tell tales here, there was a price increase at the end of the trade show and it came out to about 5% across the board (total increase, some higher, some lower), some lines like MUWAT and Herrera Esteli did not change and I think the biggest hike on Liga was around 50-60 cents for the DC.

Lets not be too dramatic unless the facts are known, you'll upset all the Drewpies. ;)
