roastenear, had to look at your name twice before i figured it out!i'm kinda slow like that sometimes!i don't know about knowledgable, but i am definitely old!you are right about dollars tied up in inventory. i know a parts store without inventory is not a good parts store.what is weird(to me anyway) is the way we track lost sales.used to be (pre computer era) your inventory control manager went over a buyers guide and maybe stocked a particular store with all "class a" items. now with the tracking system we have, with one simple keystroke you can record a sale lost by not having it in your inventory. the downside of this for example, is that if two people call me for a price on a right caliper for an '04 ford f350 and i do not stock it i record it. inventory control guy sees this number come up so eventually adds it to my stock as a new number. then a guy comes in for calipers for above vehicle. seeing as no one has ever priced the left caliper i do not have it in stock (because it has never been recorded as a "lost sale"). hope that makes sense the way i explained it. napaguy
