Here's the lowdown and update on the entire group buy!
We collected orders until the 1st of the month. We got roughly all the orders together which ended up coming in roughly the 5th of the month. Or students here on Jubilee youth ranch organized and put together what everyone wanted. Which turned out to be about 26,000 pounds of steel.
It took us 4 days to get the order organized and nested out on the AUTO-CAD program. The final order was put in on the 9th about 4pm.
It took 7 business days to get everything cut and counted and recounted to make sure everyone actually got what they were asking for. Which was actually really quick considering its 2,000 plus targets.
So that puts us at the 21st of the month being the first day to start packing. We packed and shipped 130 boxes already. Roughly 5,200 pounds.
On Friday, Saturday and Sunday I was out of town.
My plan if our students backs make it is to pack 50 boxes a day. That would equate to 1,500 pounds a day!!!!
Business days only. And please keep in mind I still have my job working with youth all day.
If you put your order in at the very start of the group buy, your order form is near the top of the list. If your order was put in to my on march 1st or late in the group buy, your Targets will be shipped in order as we got them. Just fair that way. I have had lots of people ask me " can I get my targets by this weekend??? And they say I'll throw you an extra $20???" end quote, Unfortunately it take me 45 minutes to find one random order in a stack of 600 papers.
Again fair is fair, we are going down the list. I actually think with the quantity of orders and pounds of targets everyone got, we are right on schedule!
Thanks again for all of your orders, our youth are really enjoying packing up and shipping all these orders. I am double checking and verifying everything to insure your taken care of like I would want.
I hope everyone has a truly blessed day and a great week.
