    Yes you are right

    Went into Masters this morning and the rack was empty

    However looked under the racking and saw a bottle had fallen off the back of the shelf, crawled under with arm at full stretch and bum in the air and struck gold ! Of the Titebond 3 variety, the very last bottle maybe even the last one in Australia.

    It was even better than finding one of Willie Wonka's golden tickets

    Default Titebond 3

    Anyone know if this shortage is short term or is there a long term supply issue ?
    I only have a small amount remaining

    i was going to run a bunch of chopping boards this arvo until i looked at my supply of titebond 3...havent got nearly enough. the usual suspects in my local area still dont have any in stock except for Masters having about 9 of the 237ml baby bottles.

    Is there any word on when the next shipment of the stuff is coming to the country? (if its not here already)

    Just received this to my email enquiry of a fortnight back:


    I apologise for my late reply.

    Yes unfortunately we did run out of the Titebond III Ultimate, however our stock has been replenished and you should be able to find it as normal.

    If you have any other problems, please do not hesitate to contact me.

    Kind Regards
    Lisa

    would not have been a distributor, masters bring in their own stock.

    I'm getting pretty desperate also. Their web site hasn't been updated, but I just rang the dandy branch (8:00 PM ) and they told me they had stock in. Couldn't tell me what sizes though!! I'll be down there tomorrow morning.

    NEVER trust Masters' stock availability on their website, or even when their staff say over the phone that they 'have seen it with their own eyes'. Even if you try 'Click and collect', it's no guarantee that it is in store.

    I was in Dandenong branch 1/2 hour ago and got their last 1lt bottle of Titebond3
    They had no large bottles of 3 and a few of 1 and 2
    Some people are like slinkies - not really good for anything, but they
    bring a smile to your face when pushed down the stairs .
