Whassup with CS these days?

I get an email from Polk CS a couple days ago telling me the parts I have been looking for are now available. Today I call to place the order and there are again no parts! I have only been waiting for a while now. I can understand supply issues from Covid, but we are now a good 18 months post-pandemic and still having issue???

Come on Polk,...

    You know the CS has been awful for many many years now. The whole we’re not stocking parts for the LSIM anymore when had only been discontinued for 2-3 years really pushed me away from the brand as a whole. I don’t want want paperweights a few years after speakers are discontinued in the event they need replacement drivers or other parts. Hopefully they learned a lesson from that

    Seems like they should have held what you were waiting for, seems they knew since they sent you a notification.

    They're just gearing up for the next one...
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?
