I should be clear about the future of Sackvilles as I see it/predict it. There's nothing on my visible horizon, but the two principles there are aging and there may be another reason that I don't want to say -- that leads to a retirement of both, and there is no middle-management eager or able to take over the business. It's not a humming factory, it's small and efficient, but the standards required slow things down, and it takes us up to 2 months to get an order.
If I hear news of the end of Sackvilles, I'll pass it on, and shame on me, but prices will skyrocket at that time. Right now and since the start, we've felt compelled to be price-competitive, but that all will fly out the door eventually. I know how "bad" this candor may sound, but it is the reality and all I'm doing is saying it.
