So there's the easy solution- the Japanese simply grow bigger. Haraki can sell 2X and 3X sizes domestically, you don't get stuck with product that doesn't move fast enough; everybody wins.
I'm sure they'll get started on it immediately if we ask politely.

There's that world renowned Japanese rudeness again…

i'm sure when the IronHeart Japan set visit NY they will all go up at least on size & that might solve the problem with out any necesary action on our part. i have noticed & chuckled at the fact that most japan vendors of IH only go up to a size Large as it appears their domestic demand for XL & above isn't soooo wide.
get it, sooooo wide

Just got a reaction in the form of a gif of the Japanee PM when I told him about importing Belgian beers:
"Ooooooooohhhhhhhh Myyyyyyyyyyyyyy" - George Takei

With KFC, McDonald's, Burger King making strong in-roads in Japan and especially with the younger generation - they will get "bigger" real soon ::)

why can't someone in boston have a union special chainstitch machine? i hate having to send stuff to friends in nyc.
-
Yeah, seems wrong somehow that there are only like five in the whole country (3 Self Edge locations, Blue In Green and Blue Owl Workshop). If folks know of any other places with one, I'd love to find out.
-
Railcar in California also offers chainstitching

Anti-Rant:
Background: At the Delta check-in at Madrid airport for the start of a marathon day of travel from Madrid to JFK to Seattle with two kids. I got the tickets for the kids with miles (which puts you at the bottom of the shit totem pole when there are problems).
Guy: "I'm sorry sir, but we have an overbooking situation on this flight."
Me: "That sucks. But I have Gold status and I don't think you can bump us."
Guy: "I understand that. The only solution we have is to put you, your wife and the two kids into business class. Unfortunately, we do not have 4 seats together, will that be OK?"
Me: "Are you shitting me?"
-
Lemme get this straight- he's telling you he's gonna put you in Business Class for an international flight and you don't have to sit with your kids? You're living my dream, dude…:)

Sounds like a perfect start to the day, RP.

In "honour" of the Olympics (to try to grab as much money as possible from poor deluded fools). The Knutsford branch of the Galactic Empire has changed it's Sunday opening times until the 22nd of September… So in roughly 9 hours I start the much derided "Olympic Shift" - 9:00-5:30.
Prospective customers don't seem to know about this wonderful new retail opportunity and so, after 4:00pm there is nothing to do. Attempts have been made by the rank and file to point out the futility of a Northen England supermarket trying to capitalise on an event that is happening in the South of England. Nothing doing... Hey Ho ;).
(Thought this was a more appropriate thread than the London Olympic thread).
