ANNOUNCEMENT: SERPENT MUSIC IS MOVING - TEMPORARY HALT

billw · Post by **billw** » Tue Aug 02, 2005 6:35 pm

I am in the process of moving to either Nashville, TN, or Atlanta, GA, depending on which of 2 jobs I decide to take. This will take place over the next 45 or so days. While it's going on, I am suspending orders for any new whistles. However, if you have a whistle on order with me already, it will be shipped by or before August 8, or if I cannot complete it by then, I will give the option of waiting until I get set back up, or obtaining a full refund. If you are awaiting a red whistle, I will begin shipping them again (just a few left now!) starting September 15.

Thanks for your business over the years, and I am not scarpering - just on a leave of absence. I'll be back in full force soon. If you have questions or comments, or want to place an order and are willing to wait a bit extra, please don't hesitate to contact me via email mailto:bill@serpentmusic.com but PLEASE don't send money until the order is accepted. I don't want a bunch of stuff hanging out swingin' in the breeze while I get situated!

Best regards to everyone here, and especially to Dale, for putting up with me over the years... I been better lately, huh?

I look forward to getting back in the shop, hopefully with a new lathe!
Cheers,
Bill Whedon

Good luck with the new job and the move, Bill
Moving is the PITS, and moving the equipment of a shop must be the worst!

Let us know where you decide on, Bill.
If it's Atlanta, I'll have to come & visit once you're set back up!

Good luck with both the move and the new job. Missouri will miss you!

Yeah, that is because misery loves company!

Just in case you did not know it, TN had a sales tax of nearly 10%. Heck, even CA does not have THAT high a tax.

Bill,

Best of luck with the move. I hope the next job is great!

If you need to store some of your whistle inventory during the transition there's plenty of room at my place.....
