I recently found out my build is delayed until the next iron head shipment arrives September 30th. Another user was given the same info on golfwrx. This got me to wondering...
It seems like a few individuals have run into the following... A component is backordered which delays their build. Said component arrives but now something else is backordered and there's another delay. Whether this is common or not I do not know.
When does Mizuno Custom reserve components for a build? I would hope that once my spot in the queue comes up the pieces available are set aside. While I can hope, I also realize this could become a storage nightmare and prevent the build of other orders in line after mine. This sounds like a logistics nightmare.
Along the same line, when do components for a build get counted against existing stock? It seems this would happen upon receipt of an order, and if done correctly predicting when an order will ship would be fairly reliable. Obviously hiccups in the supply chain would still be problematic...
I hope this doesn't sound like I'm getting impatient. The engineer in me is curious about how they manage their component supply in this difficult environment. It has to be impossible to keep everyone happy...
If anyone has any insight I'd love to get a better understanding!
Thanks!
