Very sad. That's like having a library burn down.

Wow, it's a sad day.. He was truely respected for his
skill and knowledge.. It is a sad day to loose a man of his quality..

In other words they invite bids for a bulk order giving all the required specifications then choose usually on the lowest price.

I hate posts like this one! Not that the news isn't appreciated, but it always saddens me to hear of the passing of someone like that. It seems that in my own lifetime we've lost so many good and worthy things like regimental kiltmakers or local tobacconists, or the butcher on the corner.
It seems the future will be dominated by big-box stores and multi-national conglomerates.
Sad news indeed!
