Default Where's the FFP's?

Been waiting for about two months for these to hit the shelves at Vitolas. I get the same answer from the vendors: soon. I've seen a few trickle outs but nothing I can snag.

They seem to hit shops sporadically and usually without warning and typically don't make it past a day or two. At least that's how it's been the last few times I've seen them arrive at my local. The last two boxes showed up with the UF13s along with two boxes of Dirty Rats. Needless to say all of the above mentioned sticks were sold out in two days and that was with limits set. Even when I see e-mails from online vendors come through it usually is followed by an e-mail time stamped 3 or 4 minutes later saying they are sold out. This is why I am glad I hoarded two boxes and am rationing them out accordingly.

Which translates too, these are rare and we can bump the prices without hesitation and it won't effect sales in the least bit.

I hear ya as I experienced the same thing recently and said Thanks but no thanks but I also have two boxes stashed away that I only paid around $12 a stick for so when I saw $16.00 for a single I happily passed.

Hmmm too much. How about LA prices -- FFP at the local B&M is $25 and Dirty Rats $22 before tax -- Coincidentally they always have them, and they are the only DE account anywhere nearby to me. I will not be buying at those prices obviously.

I'd pay $20 for dirty rats if that was my only option.

The first 2 boxes I bought I paid $14 stick. Now at $17.60 shipped, it was way more than I wanted to pay. Had a friend not split a box with me, I'd passed.
