talking about for many weeks now, you have a big crunch come this holiday season so what we re saying to consumers is active now, come out and buy today because the peak week for buying christmas trees is around that thanksgiving time and we think by that point, the shelves might be quite empty. john: so where do you source your trees from? what is the shipping situation? resource almost all of our trees and goods from china and early in may and june, we started to see a tightness in constraint in the supply. so we are suddenly scrambling to get containers along with every other importer of goods from china and not only are we unable to get the containers we wanted to get but also the prices have gone up tenfold so last year, paying anywhere between two to $3,000 for a container and this year paying upwards of $20,000
