Welcome back !!  During COVID Mike has added a few commercial customers that allowed him to keep the doors open.  Now that everyone can come back, you may find at times, that he is unloading trucks outback and it may be a few minutes before he can wait on you.  PLEASE have PATIENCE ... he will get to you as quickly as he can.  Also, please allow him an extra day to get the packages all checked in.  If it is something that is necessary for emergency, rush or air freight, give him a call to check on order status.  207-538-6974
