There are a lot of different tales going around about supply lines and part shortages causing havoc in retail markets of late.
Today while putting a down payment on a piece of equipment someone told me about a dealer who had a trade show coming up and three containers full of his inventory was stuck in a transfer yard.
Without the inventory the trade show would have been a bust for him. The details from this point were a bit sketchy but a payment of $6,000 to a certain labor boss got his shipment to him quickly.
Does this sound like something someone is making up or are their now people taking advantage of the American market just because they can?
My wife and I have been interested in purchasing a new stove but the inventory doesn't quite meet our needs or desires.
We went through a big hassle recently when our freezer went on the fritz and were lucky to find a used model.
Are we in a situation that will eventually unravel or are we being taken for a ride by a few who want some extra income?
