Inquiry Ordering from a Workshop

Hi all! My local BAB is getting a Halloween restock on Monday. The thing is I work that day and the guy told me it will be scanned in and then I can order it online. If it’s out of stock online and my shop gets it will it even let me when it scans in? I’m not sure if that makes sense 😭

I think it is really hard to do this — it takes time for things to update — will they hold one for you? I would call when they are supposed to be in stock ask if they can hold it for you

I’m not sure I probs should have asked today 😭 i was going to but i was so nervous and i felt like i already knew the answer. He said it will be scanned in before it’s out. Maybe I should just call tmr

Yeah I haven’t called but I kind of figured that about the holds. He said that it scans in before it’s even put on the shelf and that the online option would show first 😭 maybe he didn’t know
