RMB Custom Leather Report post Posted February 19, 2012 I want to drop everyone a line and update you on theprogress of my new site www.rmbcl.com . All of my blueguns and maker supplies can befound there and some have already started going to my new site. The old site will still be up and the .comname will eventually be forwarded to the new site when I get all my other itemsadded. If you order from the old site itstill will be processed. Below are somenew features to www.rmbcl.com that may beuseful for my customers. Audio – I have the ability to post audio that plays whenyou open the site. Don’t worry you canstop it by clicking the pause button on the audio player. I plan to post some audio messages in thefuture but wanted to test it with the song. Live chat – The new site will have live chat. You can see if I am online by the “live chat”balloon at the bottom right of each screen. You can chat live if I am online to check stock or leaveme an offline message which sends an email to me. As long as the software stays reliable I planto keep this feature. Bulk Discount from site - You can now receive your bulkdiscount of 5% off your grand total if you purchase 12 or more guns right fromthe site by entering coupon code “ BLUEGUNS ”. The coupon code has to be entered exactly like mentioned without thequotes of course. If you have problemsplease contact me. This must be done attime of original purchase to receive the discount. Live search – The new site has live search to help youfind the items you need without spending a lot of time searching throughseveral pages. The neat thing about the search box is that you do nothave to click search or even hit enter to search, it starts searching as youtype. Make sure that you do not hit enter after you enter whatyou want to search otherwise it will forward you to the product page, did itmyself the first time. Newsletter – Please sign up for my news letter (rightside of homepage) because this is how I plan to communicate with my customersas far as sharing information and promotions. I do not have time or want to blowup your email with junk so don’t be afraid of signingup. I will only send an email here or there when I need to share usefulinformation like new models or if I am doing some type of promotion likesomething free with your purchase. Resources menu – At the top of the site you will see aresources menu, under this menu is where I will post downloads for bluegunslike parts lists, catalogs, top sellers ect. I will also post the most up-to-date shipping time here because as weknow it sometimes will fluctuate if you have ordered something that is beingdrop shipped. On hand stock – This is still a work in progress evenwith the new site because of how the stock is handled. The new site doesn’t have an in stock listedinstead it has a drop down box that says “Drop ship if not in stock”(yes/no). If you are in a rush check vialive chat or leave me an offline message which will email me to checkstock. If you need the gun regardless ofthe shipping time choose yes to the drop ship, if out of stock option. If I have it on hand it ships immediately, ifnot it’s ordered with bluguns immediately to be shipped directly to you. I have added several models to my in stockand my goal is to increase it until drop shipping is rare. Shipping - Thishas been a challenge with the new site but I have the domestic shipping in line with my old site so far. International customers will still have tocontact me to arrange shipping for now, but I am working on it. Shipping for magazines has to be the same asa gun on the new site so I would suggest ordering mags with a gun so it willonly be the extra $3 to add an item on appose to the full charge of $7.99. I am working on a resolution to the mags. I get charged the same amount to drop ship amag as I do to ship a gun. That is whythere is an issue with the mag shipping. I plan to start stocking more mags in the future to eliminate thisissue. Thank you for your patience while I learn how to build a site; and actually build a site at the same time. Sorry to be so long, I will now get to entering all myother items Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RMB Custom Leather Report post Posted February 27, 2012 Having new site problems, items missing. The best way to find a gun you want is to type it into the search window instead of clicking the Blueguns category. Sorry for the mishap and I am working on fixing it.

Sixer Report post Posted February 29, 2012 Just ordered 4 blue guns from Rob. He was extremely helpful and got the guns to me ASAP! Very easy transaction... I know where I'll be buying my Blue Guns from now on! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RMB Custom Leather Report post Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) UPDATE: new site is up and running again with some new features. Stock is now showing and is up to date so if it shows in stock it is which would mean 3-5 days shipping. if it doesn't show in stock it will be usually 7-10 business days shipping. If you order multiple guns the ones in stock ship then and the others will be ordered and shipped asap. I still would love to hear from you all but now if you wanted to just check the site you should be able to get an idea of shipping times because of the up to date shock now showing. I will continue to increase my on hand stock as needed and am now still waiting on a large shipment so keep a check. I you see a problem with the new site please let me know because I am still working on off/on. Edited March 13, 2012 by RMB Custom Leather Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
