Wij are overwhelmed!

Yesterday we send you the message we are going to stop our business. And deep inside you of course hope to get a nice message back from one or two of you. Yes, we are that kind of people ;-) But what actually happened took us by surprise: our mailbox exploded! We received dozens of messages from you. Thank you sooooo much for that! Honestly, we have to admit some tears were shed by reading all your emphatic and supportive emails. Although we still feel we made the right decision, we are starting to realize we may have made a bigger impact than we thought.

Thank you again for the messages (and no, this is not a call to stop sending them ;-) )

For those who have missed it, on our website we explain our reasons for quitting.

Next to our email inbox, there was yet another explosion: the number of orders... I don't know what you guys are all up to during the night, but dozens of orders in the middle of the night... we did not see that coming either. Thanks for that too. It really helps us.

A few tips

Sales are going so fast at the moment that products are rapidly going out of stock. So, the chances increase of missing that pen or ink you wanted. Sorry for that...

History learned us that, in spite of many stock counts and specialized software, explainable stock differences do occur. We did do a full stock count before we announced the sale, but it might still occur you order something we do not have anymore. Apologies for that and we will contact you asap.

Your nightly buying spree have radically changed our Sunday plans ;-) We will start processing orders today. But... there are so many we might need a little more time than usual. I hope you understand.

Thank you again for your all the sweet messages!

Petra, Sjoerd, and Frank
