    Seems vendors that they dont learn their lessons too well these days, does it.

    I have a vendor that supplies an item that I will use 20-40 per month. Lately they have been out of stock often and back ordering so I have been on their case to stock more. My last order of 20 came off backorder when they got in 200 pieces 2 weeks ago and they are already down to 29 pieces so I grabbed all of those. My sales person told me that the new/young purchaser has 50 on order and she has been arguing to increase.

    Go thru 200 in 2-3 weeks and have a reorder of 50. Must be the new math the younger crowd is taught in school-that doesnt make sense either. :loco: :crazy:

    A little update on the 802s . They seem to be burning good on low , clean , zero fines in bag and also the bags are heavy duty and filled to capacity.:thumbs:

    Funny how last year Home Depot was flooded with thermaglows but this year they are nowhere to be found. All Home Depots in my area have fire sides at $249. And all lowes in my area have GS,still river at $259 and GT Platinum for way way to much

    Funny how all the others HDs around here are at $249 and that one store is $229. Think they are trying to undercut Robbins.
