I need me some LittlePaws. I just got some birthday money and I am really wanting to get some. Anyone know when they will restock?

Rob110 said:their products are probably manufactured in china so theres a majortime frame between ordering manufacuring to shipping, shipping alone can take over 30 to 60 days to arrive by container ship.
bambinod said:We'd have to hear from the horse's mouth I suppose, but I'd be willing to bet that they mix cases by hand at the warehouse, not at the manufacturing facility. That's why they cost a little more, there's more handling involved.
AFAIK, ABU has always honored "case mixing" in the past. You could place an order and then call them up and they would sub bags of equal/lesser quality. They were doing that for free though, so it's not surprising they've formalized the process a bit now.

Thank you for the reply. I'll keep my eyes open on the inventory.klo555 said:Howdy! Casey from ABU Here. Most items are going to be back in stock within the next week, if not already from the start of when this post was made.
Regarding the mixed case options, please contact [email protected] if you want to do any custom mixing (don't just put it in the notes) and we will work with you to make it happen. It's more of a formalized process now mainly due to the inventory systems we have in place, but it's still a free service we offer.
And yes, our diaper stock is made in China, so it does take 20-30 days to get a restock on anything. We usually restock each of our warehouses every week with more product, but sometimes certain items will 'surge' in sales at certain times and there will be blips of no inventory for XX days. Annoying for everyone involved.
