Aarrrrrrrgh!
Ray was trolling for mbc's and spots another place on the internet (is it fair to put the name here?) that sells MBC's for Morphs. So he calls and the human male personage (not a computer mind you) at the other end says, Oh, yeah, we've got those IN STOCK. Right here on the shelf. IN STOCK! Whoopie!
So Ray, happy as a clam, makes an order for the IN STOCK mbc. We anticipate arrival of the IN STOCK mbc before Christmas, even. The price was not cheap but it wasn't exhorbitant either, given the rarity of IN STOCK mbc's.
I'm even happier than Ray, an IN STOCK mbc has been tracked down across this wide expanse of country and will soon be winging its way Seattlewards. O, joy! O, extra Merry Christmas! IN STOCK mbc!!!
Today, Ray gets an e-mail. Guess what. Mbc's are NOT IN STOCK after all. Look at that, the darn shelf is EMPTY after all! Huh. Imagine that, NOT IN STOCK on that mbc. They'll keep the order for the NOT IN STOCK mbc for 60 days just in case, and should no mbc's happen to float over via slow boat from Japan to be IN STOCK by then, the order for the NOT IN STOCK mbc will be cancelled.
Aarrrrrrrrrrrgh! Weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth!
Chomp, Chomp, CHOMP to all those parts places who can't keep their inventory straight!

Buy a new zoot-scoot, this one can't be repaired.
Can't afford that. I have the one I have and it has to be made to work. there won't be another for many years to come, if ever.
