3. TWSBI mini parts received from Philip Wang in 1 to 2 weeks.
4. Wahl-Eversharp sent to Syd Saperstein. Returned in 2 weeks. Then sent to The Pen Family for another problem and returned in 4 months.
5. Montegrappa Israel 50th Anniversary sent to Kenro Industries. I can’t remember how long it took to get back. Maybe 2 months?
