Normand, I sent you a pm, but thanks for reminding me to make an announcement.

Mustad is over 2 weeks behind in their shipping and it has affected our delivery of Mustad hooks. (I would have never had the 20% off sale if I knew this!)

I'm sorry about this, but as you know, we do not charge shipping on backorders.

Backorders are a part of business and please know that they are not only aggravating to our customers, but very expensive for us!! We do greatly appreciate your business and your patience, too!

Ron
The Hook & Hackle Company

P.S. - We were so aggravated with backorders from Tiemco, that it prompted us to introduce our own line of hooks, which is now one of our best selling lines of chemically sharpened hooks. The best part is, we can actually keep them in inventory so that backorders are less likely!
