Dutch is actually magic! It's the only logical explanation.

[Ham Mocker]

I'm not sure exactly which, but I've dermined Dutch is definitely a Jedi/wizard/magician/angel, with special magical sewing elves/fairies/sprites/witches working for him.

Here's the proof. I placed an order late Saturday (really it was early Sunday morning, Eastern time). As in this past Saturday, May 2, 2015. I ordered an 11' gray Argon hammock which was OUT OF STOCK. It did not exist at the time I placed my order, folks.

I was hoping they were slow this week, and/or I was really lucky and they would rush my sweet, precious hammock, beloved ridgeline, and shiny, special bling (along with all the other crap I decided was essential at the last moment). I was thinking that it *might* ship out mid-week, if all the stars aligned.

Guess what I got today at lunch? Monday, May 4, 2015, around noon, I got an email letting me know my order has ALREADY SHIPPED!!! It took less than 36 hours for them to make my hammock from scratch, put the order together, AND deliver it to USPS.

Obviously the only logical conclusion is that Dutch and his minions have superpowers/magic/the Force. Just try to prove me wrong! I dare you.

The only thing I don't understand is this: why doesn't he just have his reindeer/nymphs/unicorns magic it directly to one's doorstep? I *totally* would have paid for upgraded shipping, if I had known a mystical being of faerie would make the delivery.

Sounds like you got bad service this time around. He must be slipping. Usually it arrives before you've submitted the order.

Well played, sir.

Sound like a broken record?

E-mailed Dutch last night with a request(Calling them Orders seems inappropriate). I received shipping confirmation @ 8:14 AM this morning.

I love it. The video makes it all make sense. Why didn't I mention aliens? I knew I was missing something.

I think aliens still fall under the general category of "Dutch has some form of supernatural powers," however, so I can't count this as entirely disproving my earlier theory, but this is an impressive contribution.

With all the metalworking, and the strangely symmetric, seemingly obvious, yet technologically advanced and lightweight doohickeys, Aliens really are the most likely explanation.

But...wait...does that mean my package definitely won't be arriving on a unicorn? Crap. This happens every time! Lazy unicorns.

You know something is strange when you get the "Your Dutchware order has shipped" email before you log off the website! It's not magic, it's sorcery!
