When I inquired at TBS why stores had not been receiving the Ephemere Collection, I was told the LCBO was cancelling all the orders that were coming through. LCBO head office apologized and told me there was a "glitch" in their system that was cancelling all the orders! That being said, they are going to re-try delivering initial shipments on Tuesday, and is supposed to (ahem) start hitiing shelves over the next two weeks.

Is it still in the stores that were listed earlier? Like the Yonge/Bloor one, just to pick an example for no particular reason other than my impending presence in the area.

I went to Summerhill Beer Store on Thursday evening and specifically requested the Ephemere collection. The two staff members on the desk at the time told me that although it had been entered on their system, they had none in stock.

The also told me that they were on a new delivery system which included materials received through the LCBO. Despite that day having just received a shipment from the LCBO, the collection had not been included.

They said maybe in this week's delivery, although they really had no concrete idea of either the product or a firm delivery date.

Thanks Greg,
As soon as I read Your Post, I hopped on the Bicycle, rode down grapped my Ephemere Collection, and I've just arrived home. I appreciate the news.

Thanks again, Doug
