I actually received a CAL from Bill today after these posts. It seems there is a quarrel going on in china where all this stuff is being made between the manufacturer and the venders. Asiatam being one party involved. Shipments from China are slower than ever and there are a few disputes going on.<div> this may cause some delays with parts. all of our present suppliers we use will be seeing this delay affect them. Phil included , so it is not just Bill. It is gonna affect all of them. Anyone ever notice that even Welshdragon models is usually out of stock of a lot of items. watch his site too and you will see.</div>
