Backorders


IMGlilly (34k image)
Lilly might have a slow day in the office, but the rest of us are not. Right now we are struggling with a back log of Dale products on back order from Norway. Some of you placed orders 2-3 weeks ago, and are still waiting. We are crossing our fingers that we will get a new shipment shortly, and apologize for the delay. You may cancel your order with a full refund by emailing us.
