JICO SAS Discontinued

I heard about this yesterday early in the morning. I've been waiting and waiting to purchase a Jico SAS for some time. I placed my order for a SAS stylus for one of my M91EDs. The order went thru, etc. At 4:00pm yesterday I received the "out of stock" response with the option to wait or cancel. Given the sudden traffic on this item, I can understand. I cancelled. Used market here we go!
 
I must be lucky. My V15's a II. LP gear has/had these in stock yesterday. I need to stop spending.
 
Yeah me too, ordered an SAS for M97xE from LPGear yesterday, all indications so far are that it is in stock. At some point the financial bleeding will stop LOL

Totally out of stock or out of stock on a specific stylus? If the latter, which stylus?

prior poster got an "out of stk" on a SAS for M91ed from Jico. I was suggesting alternative sources. I'm sure there are additional sources I'm not thinking of....
 
Order update: I was just notified by LP Gear that the SAS VN35HE (for V15-III) is now out of stock and that the order can be filled in three weeks.

If JICO has discontinued all sales of SAS styli and if LP Gear is currently out of stock, how do they propose to fill your order in 3 weeks?

I suppose it's possible that LP Gear was shipped a stock order prior to the SAS discontinuation but I'd want to know the answer to this.

A preexisting order in WIP (Work In Progress) state, or in transit.

Enjoy,

All I know is I had a confirmed order in 2/18, now out of stock on 2/19. They said it will be filled in 3 weeks and do I want to hold the order open. I said yes.

I received also the "out of stock" advice from LP Gear for a Shure V15 III, giving me the opportunity to cancel the order or wait 3 weeks. I responded saying that i'll keep the order as long as they honor the price i already had paid. I also tell of my concern about the availability of the now discontinued SAS stylus.
Later i received their new answer:

"Yes we are receiving a limited quantity of these as they were ordered prior to them being discontinued.
We will honor the price you paid and ship it to you as soon as they come in.
Thank you
The Team at LP Gear"

I hope they do...
