Title: mellonair site update Back up & running
Post by: C Mellon on February 21, 2012, 07:56:00 PM
As you all know my site has been down. The server was damaged from an outside party. They have no ETA on when I will be back up & running. Please do not call asking when it will be fixed.
On another note. I put in 26 hrs this weekend trying to catch up. I am finishing up the last of the orders dated Feb 8. I recieved over 30 mostly large orders that day. So orders from that date on will take around 2 weeks to ship.
If you have a complant about the wait. I don't want to hear it. I've been almost a month without a day off.
Charlie

4PM Feb 21 Site is back up. Don't call me & tell me it's back. You wouldn't think I had to say that, but I do. & don't use your blow dryer in the shower.

You mean updates on my front page that say "orders take 7-10 days" Updates like that. Then people email two days after they order "has it shipped yet?" I say "no 7-10 days". Couple days later.... Yep you guessed it "has it shipped yet"
Doesn't matter what I write most don't read it anyway. First word on the piston & valve page "AJUSTABLE" piston. All the time I get "are your pistons adjustable?' it doesn't say on your site.  The only ones that see it are the ones that tell me it's mispelled, misspelled?... Not spelled right. & those guys don't even buy one.
One more note. Most of you have caught on to sense of humor. For the record if you think I'm being pissy it's just me screwing with you. Charlie

LOL   :)

Total side note, I use Firefox for my browser and the site currently will not open in Firefox (tested it on two computers).  Opens fine in Explorer and Safari.

Cheers,

Wish I could find out who's giving Charlie crap. Your work is too good to have people bitching about how long it takes. If they want quick, tell 'em to go get some cheap Chinese crap. If they want quality, tell em they can sit and wait.

X3 increase the lead time from 10 days to 14 and take Sunday off, at least. If you burn out then we get no parts. Hope you sneak in a little shooting, too.

Don't get the wrong idea about the emails. I'm not complaining. I think they're funny. I'm just sharing. "Charlie the barrel you sent me has some twisted lines in the bore" (true email). I told him it makes the pellet come out faster, & the spin the other way down under.
"I took the cap off the end of my tube, & a spring feel out. What does it do? Do I need it?"
"I would like to buy one of your ported pistons"
"Has my order shipped yet?" No Name "I need your name" I get full list of all the parts, prices, total, but no name.
I got a twenty dollar bill in the mail. Note said" Can't wait to try it, Thanks"  No name no return address.
This is not to hurt anyones feelings. It's just think it's funny, & I do the same dumb things. Nice to think we haven't grown up, & can still get excited over our toys. You know like "now when we get to the gun show, behave, & no running"  Yea right.
