The order is in and a spreadsheet showing everyone's requests and associated cost is attached to this post.
Wessex changed a couple of things during the order period. There was the destocking of the picture frames, of course, which was the cause of much chagrin. I really do not want to go there again.
On a happier note, they changed the discount scheme for their own brand mountboard which meant we got a 10% reduction on both the Antique White and Black boards which we ordered, which was better than we have had previously.
There were a couple of stocking issues. The own brand Dark Green board was not available and stocks of Daler board were generally low, where David and I both wanted a couple of sheets of one of the near whites. I eventually got two sheets each of the white core "Cumulus Cloud", which was the entire inventory of that particular shade.
To keep things simple for my spreadsheet, I left the Dark Green column in place, but reduced everyone's order to zero so there is no impact on the final total,
Any questions or comments, just add a post here and I will respond as best I can.
Finally, a reminder that those who have placed requests will need to be at the club's first meeting of the season next Wednesday, 6 September to collect their orders or make alternative arrangements since I have no long term storage facilities.
