Catalog glitches...

December 5, 2003
Grrr... Time to start handing out the 1000 lashes with a wet noodle. There's a few pricing errors in the new catalog 6:
- The RM2 motor is not 2 for $10.75/ea CDN - it's 1 for $3.40 or 2 for $2.85/ea CDN
- The SC2422 solar cell is not 2 for 2.55/ea USD - it's 2 for $3.25/ea USD
- The GM8 and GM9 gear motors are not $5.50/ea - they're $10.55/ea CDN
Sorry about the confusion, folks. I wish we could afford to honour the under-pricing and correct just the over-pricing, but we have a staff to feed and free community servers (www.solarbotics.net) to support!
