Re: SFWA SSHIDE Coupon Expired?

<span style="font-weight: bold"> because theres no way of knowing whats in stock on the website and you might end up on backorder for something and have to call and cancel the order.</span> its kind of a let down that in this day and age theres no "in stock" confirmation on the products. </div></div>
This is the reason I will usually check other suppliers if I need something in any kind of a short time frame. I love that SWFA deals in such a wide variety of product, the prices are fair, and the website is easy to use. But the not being able to tell if an item is in stock is a real downer. This loses them more business than just saying an item is out of stock, I dare say. Some things I am willing to wait on and would order whether on backorder or not. But there are times I want/need something relatively quickly, and it is a drag to have to email them to find out if it is in stock before I order. I know this is fairly common on the net, but it shouldn't be. JMHO
