Where have all the stocking Distributor gone?

Why is it that Stocking Distributor has no Stock?

Why is it that they have to call the Factory?

Why is it that the Factory takes two or three weeks to answer the Stocking Distributor?

This is the age of computer, can't a factory know how many parts they have and a price.

I have been in the Valve Field for over 30 years, I have seen All Valves being Manufacture Oversea and Mexico, I have seen that we have become a throwaway country (USA)

I have seen ALL the Big Valve Company, buy out or close down the small one.

The Big three ,TYCO, Crane, Flow serve,

I’m sure that they don’t want to sale parts, but it still takes weeks to get an answer on New Valves

Do they have in stock, now many, and pricing?

The Big Crash is Coming!
