Interpretation of "In Stock" Information

Be sure you can get fast shipment of SPI Supplies products without taking the time to ask!

Stock availability information:
SPI Supplies now offers on-line stock availability information. We are the first in the world offering electron microscope sample preparation equipment and related consumable supplies to offer this kind of information to our on-line customers. We hope you will find this information useful and that when you see that a product is "in stock", that you will have the added confidence that a prompt shipment is indeed possible.

However, we want to caution our customers about the following:

Should you see a "Yes" for current stock, there could be a chance that some other customer would have already "claimed" it but the stock availability would not have been updated to reflect that sale.
Some of our products are assembled from components, for example, some of our embedding resin kits and of course our modular sputter/carbon coater system. The full kits as well as the sputter coater systems generally show "No" for current stock availability but in most instances they actually are in stock, but we have not created the software that would enable us to show real time inventory availability of such of those products.
Some items are literally produced to order and are always showing as being "No" in terms of stock. Major equipment like our OPC line of Osmium Plasma Coaters are made to order. Also custom coated carbon coated grids are made to order so that they will possess the very highest hydrophilic nature. But once an order is received, the shipping date is confirmed.
We are constantly producing new product to put on into inventory and very often a product showing "no stock" is only one or two days away from being in stock available for shipment. If you see a stock situation of "No" for one or more items,
