For smaller customers that are not buying millions of parts at a time, it is even worse, as they have no leverage. That includes the company I am working for and I would assume companies like Elecraft. Even for simple orders from distributors of in stock parts they are taking a week to ship rather than the usual next day shipment. It is really disruptive.
