Diary of a Demented Store Owner

Friday 22 June 2012

We feel like bragging a little bit today. 
Why not? It's the dog days of summer and we've been busy securing some very exciting inventory for anyone doing stained glass and fusing.Bringing in a truck shipment from Uroboros in Portland this week means that we continue to be the largest glass supplier in all of Canada, carrying virtually every single colour available in System 96 (also ideal for stained glass). Here's some numbers (Neal the Accountant, please skip this part):Our sale square colour variety currently stands at over 200!Our sale square piece count (now 3 sizes- 12" x 12", 9" x 12" and the amazingly popular 6" x 6") currently numbers over 5,000 pieces! And that's just in Sys96 (we still carry a smattering of Bullseye coe 90).This shipment fills out all those colours that have been perpetually out of stock, or even worse, discontinued by our one and only Canadian glass supplier. We'd be in some serious trouble with supply and selection if we had to depend on these guys!We also brought in a ton (literally) of fresh new Heads and Tails. These are the cutoff top and bottom of stock sheets of Uroboros glass that have the most interesting colour mix. And at our new lower pricing, they work out to be a fraction of the cost of their stock glass.We close with a little Heads and tails photo pictorial, Mikey likes to call "Why Can't We All Just Get Along?" Seems Vanna Opal and Nicholas Picholas might have...
