I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue. I like to use the "in stock" filter when searching for tobaccos on the smokingpipes.com web site but, for the last month or so, when I click the In Stock button, it has no impact. Put simply, it's not weeding out the out-of-stock tobaccos. I've included an image so you can see what I mean. I've tried this in different browsers (Chrome and Edge) on different devices, I've tried it in Incognito mode, I've tried doing it while logged in and out of my account . . . all with the same results. All the other filters on the site seem to work perfectly.

I contacted their customer service department and they told me they weren't able to recreate the problem so it's working on their end. Is it just me? Is there something obvious that I'm missing here?

Is it having to hit more keystrokes to find what you want the essential trauma, or the emotional violence of thinking for a split second something is in stock, only to discover upon reading the fine print that it's not?

Because either way that is absolutely horrifying.

The board is behind you. We'll see that you get healed and made whole again. 👍

Nah. Not horrifying at all. Nor is it traumatizing or violent.

The website in question is a popular site that is important to the community.
Calling this issue to their attention helps them and it helps their customers.
I’m glad it was mentioned.

Technically, two filters broken. Tinned Tobacco, first result is definitely not. And then In Stock.

Is there a Gofundme for cure for bitterness.

Oh that sucks. That filter is the one I use pretty much everytime I make an order that isn't for the regular go to tobaccos. It's especially helpful when looking at certain brands where there are more out of stock then in stock.
Oddly had this issue and then didn't have this issue a few months ago during the same shopping "trip". Don't know what fixed it.

Heaven forbid someone ask for help with a problem. Good lord, man. It doesn't work for me but it worked for the customer service rep so I was just curious if i was doing something wrong. I never once complained about it causing me any trauma so get off your high horse.

Absurdist humor isn't your thing, apparently.

It's not my thing; you're right about that. In fact, I didn't even realize that being a patronizing grump and then saying "I was only joking" qualified as absurdist humor until today.

Don't despair. Learning new things is Part of Life :)

Although you may not realize it, you are zero-point. If you have never experienced this network at the speed of light, it can be difficult to reflect. Have you found your myth?

We are at a crossroads of curiosity and illusion. Humankind has nothing to lose. We are in the midst of a joyous summoning of awareness that will remove the barriers to the quantum soup itself.

Well, I've learned many things from you in the past so this is just the latest lesson.

As for my myth, I found it long ago, but it's likely that I've strayed from the journey and spent too much of my remaining time in places like this.

Probably. Some function on a website didn’t work? Holy fuck I’m sorry for your loss.

Indeed.

You and I are lifeforms of the dreamscape.

The goal of electromagnetic forces is to plant the seeds of peace rather than pain. Consciousness consists of transmissions of quantum energy. "Quantum" meaning a maturing of the angelic.

How should you navigate this spacial world?

You must take a stand against bondage. Without rejuvenation, one cannot exist. You may be ruled by dogma without realizing it. Do not let it shatter the deeper meaning of your quest.

Although you may not realize it, you are conscious. Seek, look within, and change yourself. If you have never experienced this transmission on a cosmic scale, it can be difficult to self-actualize.

We can no longer afford to live with selfishness. The complexity of the present time seems to demand a summoning of our brains if we are going to survive. Only a Indigo Child of the infinite may inspire this quantum leap of serenity.

You would think this but technically this is just how their site works.. and has for some time in my experience.

While I don't have any inside baseball type knowledge... I'm pretty certain they consider anything that is "packaged by the manufacturer in weight less than 1 pound" as being "tinned" while anything 1 pound or larger is considered bulk. If you looked, for years, you'd see that 500 gram factory packs of Gawith Hogarth and 1 pound factory bags of Sutliff were always considered bulk while the smaller 8oz boxes/bags of Samuel Gawith, etc. are "tinned".
The 16oz factory bags of D&R are also under "tinned" though so it's not always 100% accurate.. but seems to be their methodology... or at least the closest that my OCD addled brain can justify 😂

George,

Are you screwing around with AI again?
