Deanna & Aron - thanks for the updates. It makes a big difference when info like this gets out. I know that you are probably reluctant to post the names of those that sets have been shipped to, but, as Gearbanger suggested, it would be fantastic if you could let the board know each time a set is sent out. Even better would be letting us know if its an old or new order being satisfied. That would let people know that old sets are being delivered and maybe give a sense of how many new sets need to be done to get an old set out the door.
Of course, Aron's latest post must also be good news: pay your shipping again, get a credit for that amount and have your headders on the way to you! One thing I have noticed: new arrangements through Aron seem to get done as I haven't seen any complaints of anyone making an arrangement with him with no positive end result. That may not be the best arrangement/practice as some have mentioned before, but if it works and helps the whole process and gives people the confidence to make new orders and results in old orders being shipped, it is in a way a big win - win in the circumstances. I think people should seriously consider this option. Aron - would you be willing to give some idea of the take up on your offer so that perhaps it will inspire others to go that route (including the strategy to take hedders uncoated for now and receive a credit for doing so)?
Good luck to Ron and best wishes for him and his efforts. I believe that this can still work out where everyone gets their product.
