I caught the thing about lead times too. It brought to mind an ealier post from team 368 which is in Hawaii. As I recall they have to wait an additional 1 or 2 days for stuff from SPI due to the extra shipping.

If they want to even up the lead times does that mean we all have to leave the stuff in the box for 2 days when we get it so it's not a disadvantage to the Hawaii teams?

I think we have to try and use some common sense. Which as I realize has nothing to do with legality. Why else do you think juries were invented? but that's another subject and way off topic.

While we don't order stuff before hand (we don't have that much $$) We do routinely use material that was purchased in previous years. I don't see any problem with this especially since, as someone pointed out, the rules don't say when the material had to have been purchased from SPI
