6-2-2011 If you are thinking
about ordering a Filbert Pump be advised that the wait may be as much as four
(4) weeks.
If you need a pump for an upcoming event plan ahead and order early. Then, call
and email us, reminding us that you need it by a certain date and we will do
our best to meet your deadline. But we need a reminder to keep us focused on
your pump.
Black Bases, Handles, Small Tubes, and Top Disks are out of stock.
Large tubes in all colors, Red Yellow Blue Black Teal Orange Pink and White are in stock.
Small Tubes in Red Yellow Blue Teal Orange Pink and White are in stock.
Black Small Tubes are out of stock.
Unfortunately, the dramatic increase of the materials needed to build a Filbert Pump has finally forced us to increase our price to $100 per pump.
Also, shipping cost is increasing exponentially and may soon force us to increase our shipping costs.
If the base of your Filbert Pump has cracked contact us for a free replacement.
Include the base and large tube colors as well as the pump serial number, located
on the bottom of the pump.
The parts are free, but we ask that you pay $12 to cover the shipping and handling.
This helps us keep costs down, which translates into lower costs to our customers.
Shipping and handling of a base repair to most places in the US is $12, while
shipping and handling of a base repair to Australia is $41, and to France is
$33. so you see it can get expensive real fast.
