As noted above we will be leaving on Friday Nov 15 for a multi city and two country trip to various distibutor shows. The purpose of these distributor shows is for dealers to place advance orders from multiple suppliers for future product deliveries. These are supposed to be the best pricing available for the next year and expected delivery dales. Last year we were promised confirmed pricing and delivery however several distributors raised their prices mid year even though we had signed contracts at the old pricing. Also with some distributors there was only about 55% delivery of ordered products. We are attempting to spread out our orders with as many suppliers as possible including overlapping same products with different suppliers in an effort to get most of our required product.
Our owners group will attend most of these shows while Dianne and I will go to all of them. I will try to check PM's often however the very best way of contacting our company for any reason is through E mail or phone as these will be answered daily and dealt with by our managers on site. This trip is ahead of the Shot Show by 2 months where some other orders will be done as well. I will update here when I return about any new products and also delivery dates on old back oders (some have been in place for a year). Phil.
