I had to ask about it just to let them know and was told:
"This item is not currently available and while under construction on the site, will be listed at a high cost to deter items being added to orders while the webteam works on the update
we dont currently have an ETA for when they will be listed or cost to provide at this time"

Why not just say it's out of stock?

- Poor ecommerce presence.
- Lack of ecommerce professionals on staff.
- Poor business practices.

Went their store recently to buy ingredients. They were out of a mainstay grain. Happened every visit in the past 18 months. When I retire in 2021 and we move out of state, I don't know that they'll be on my list of suppliers.
