The shipping confirmation stated that at least some of your order shipped and to check your packing list for what actually shipped. I can tell you with 100% certainty that the 1 x 1 tube did not ship because we did not have any to ship on Friday.

We are due to receive more this week, but until we ship out the currently received orders we will not be putting that particular item back in stock.

I ask because we'll very likely have to order more VersaChassis gussets and channels and I wanted to know if they'll be in stock (and we'll be able to order on-demand) or if we need to order in advance in order to "get in line".
The answer to your question depends on which products and how many people order after they come in stock. The gussets and tubing have out sold our expectations by orders of magnitude so I can't make any promises of how long they will stay in stock. However, the gussets are made by IFI manufacturing on our same campus here in Greenville so we can just keep making more after they run out.
