[QUOTE="Tex_Hunter, post: 1842017, member: 31749"] Not really... what the OP is doing (using your personal example) is equivalent to one of your guitar buyers who didnt get a guitar this year, because you already sold the one that you made for the year, complaining about why you only make one guitar per year and then getting online and saying "azsugarbear is getting on my last nerve... does he (or she/it... dont want to assume) care about losing customers?" Which, if you are perfectly content only selling one guitar a year (constrained supply), and you consistently have more than one person a year who wants to buy a guitar from you... why would you care that the OP goes somewhere else? You have other customers who will still gladly wait to buy a guitar from you (excess demand). More importantly, if the reason that you only make one guitar in a year is that it is financially prohibitive and/or you just don't have enough time to make two without quitting your day job or hiring someone or whatever... then what good does the OP stamping his feet do about it? You cant scale to meet the increased demand, but again, that doesn't matter because you are selling everything you make and still have a wait list. This is the same thing, just obviously higher volumes. The OP is mad because of unrealistic expectations and general ignorance of basic economics. Hodgdon is a distributor for ADI, they cant just snap their fingers and "make more", that's not how manufacturing works. Why is that people get so emotional when it comes to guns? [/QUOTE]
