And shop would say - yeah throw me in 3. i think they are only marked up $30 to consumer. So if there is a particular color you want you go to Travis and say - I want yellow, and he will throw you on a list, and you wait patiently for a yellow order.
Yep - Phil sends out in batches. Marcus is on hold for 3 sets of deep red ones he ordered and is waiting on all the other vendors who want sets too so Phil can send them out all at once in bulk which is better for them cost-wise I'm sure.
