As impossible as it may seem, Germans may be pressured to shut off 55% of their nat gas supply. I can't help but think that would cause some supply issues on anything from Germany, including whatever Stihl makes there. Germany rules out immediate end to Russian oil imports
My 20” light bar came in yesterday and I picked it up today. I mentioned the slow boat from China delivery and what I heard about orders not being filled until mid July he said Stihl was working around the clock to fill orders and should be back to normal by the end of summer. I’ll believe it when I see it, but I’m happy to finally get the bar
If you have any Ace Hardware’s near you, I found one loaded with light bars 25-36”. I found another small town hardware that had 25” +. Just couldn’t find a 20” anywhere. Ordered mine on March 3 and delivered on April 21.
Why is it that when people catch wind that something may have supply issues down the road their first reaction is to start hoarding said product causing demand to sky-rocket at the absolute worst possible time? This only contributes to the pending supply issue. It happens all the time.....paper products, gas, ammo, etc. I think it all comes from the "me first" attitude. If people would simply continue to buy said product as normal (when you need it), we'd have less issues.
Or buy stock in small quantity regularly to save "for later". Accomplishes the goal without all the drama. Then again, for some, the drama is the point.
