Thanks for your two bits worth LC. No, I don't expect he can control the weather, but he can control how he runs his business.
Your wording is surprisingly similar to the supplier's response...... very defensive and both from Bendigo..... Interesting!
It appears history is repeating itself:
- Checked on stock.........
- Told 2 weeks delivery........
- Paid in full...........................
- 5 weeks later..........................
- Still not received.........................
- Reason - bad weather in the U.S........
- I can't cancel...
