Not quite. When the orders reach 100 (or 300 for the 15 mm), they ask you to
confirm the order. Presumably, if too many decline, they won't produce it.

G'day Ryan,

> Ok, I went and looked at the 100 figs for the NAC stuff.

Nic has a set of codes to show you what the figs status is:

Status Meaning 0 None
1+         More than one
25+       Twenty five or more
50+       Fifty or more - half way there!
75+       Seventy five or more
IP In Production

There may be a number of reasons that he doesn't give exact amounts (like he
doesn't confirm until they reach the 100 mark etc), but my guess is that Nic
has to play a careful game there, give enough info for the customers to see
status, but not give so much away that his competition knows what he's up too.

If you want to know the ins and outs go to

and hit the 100 club link.

Cheers

Beth

Ah.. Well, that does make sense. Although I understood we won't quite need the
100 for this one, but that info should be on Frits's website.

I think they're listed in bands (e.g. 1 could mean anywhere between 1 and 10,
or something like that). In any case, it's far too few at this time. Hence my
'subtle' pushing.

There's likely another issue at work and that is maintenance time. The current
method keep him from having to update the site everytime someone chimes in and
orders a few figures.
