Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. - Thomas Edison
The more we all talk about this, the more other printers will run out and buy ink they actually dont need. This will only compound this issue.
I hope a lot of folks panic and try to switch to water base or discharge (you know, it's that easy) and leave all the crappy plastisol to us. But yeah, here I am saying quit talking about it, yet I am.
All I did was ask a simple question from other printers in the same boat as we all are. Yes talking about it may not help but TSB is not Mass Media, we are a very very small group of printers out of the whole. Talking about it is not going to change anything.

It's clearly stressful right now for everybody, but bringing this up so few of us that are actually still here benefit from it is the right thing to do. If there wasn't for similar conversations few months back we would all be out of ink by now.pierre

Talking about it is not going to change anything.I wasn't trying to give you a hard time. But I 100% think you are wrong that talking about it isn't going to change anything. Every time I see this topic on here and other facebook printing groups I nudge Shelly and we look and order more ink. So I am literally proof the more this is talked about the more we buy ink trying to be sure we are as OK as can be. On club house the other day someone brought this up as well and many chimed in that they are literally now hording ink as as result of the rationing and they are actively looking for ink. I wouldn't have replied with such if I hadn't already seen this playing out.
