This was from the note from the CAS guy

Sorry I have been out of touch....just got in last night from BC myself, I
will be talking with the mysis people tomorrow, and should have the order
coming in for early next week.

On the party thing I thing I'll have to put some though to that. I

OK, good news and bad news. I have been talking with the manufacturer, and I
can do an order straightaway, but the bad news is that because of the
flagging US dollar hurting their margin on US sales (the greater part of
their business), they have increased the per unit price a fair bit
[including tax, it has increased $0.86, but I can take a bit of a hit and
increase my cost on this order by only $0.65/unit, for a total landed-cost
of $5.65/flat, including shipping (based on an order of a minimum of 300
units...the price would drop by a few pennies a unit on larger orders due to
shipping costs.)]. As well, they have had some problems with the harvest of
smaller mysids affecting the overall production, so I may be only able to
get a single case of 113 graded-small mysid flats this time.
Let me know how this affects things on your end.

I am still proceeding with the order...naturally if you buy it locally the new price will be also higher. I will be purchasing 200 units and I have received advance payment on about 65 and the rest will be up for grabs.

Can we just call it an even $6 per package then, Ross? Keep things simple? I notice we're a "smaller order" so that might be the thing to do.

[rossb]

heck at 6 bucks a package I might spring for beer

[bear27]

Im still in for 5 pacs at 6 bucks just let me know when there here

[Jim Barry]

I'm in for 10 packs in you have enough....

and Ross, I'll even drink some of that beer you're buying

[rossb]

I'll even drink some of that beer you're buying

OK but no laughing at my tank...or my dog. I emailed Christian and the deal is proceeding I'll keep you posted on the pick up time.

[DiscusZ]

Here is the latest update from christian

The Mysis left on a freezer-truck yesterday, so I should have them by or on Monday.

Christian

I am midly optimistic that we will have the Mysis next week...

Once again sorry for the delay, it is painful dealing with him. Next time I line one of these up I'm going right to the manufacturer
