Vendors
Anyone else having issues with vendors lately? I'll send something over requesting a quote or more information or just wanting an update on a project and I get nothing. It's not just one vendor either. It's across the board. It's not like we ask for quotes and not buy either; which I could somewhat understand if that were the case. Seems like people would be more than willing to get back with you considering the current state of the economy.

I think you are experiencing nothing more than summer time syndrome. -
