Most anything sold on Amazon will be like that. It's not an enterprise IT shop so it's mostly places dumping old stock for home users.

So far this is the best option, by far, that I have found:

I think I have to change the customers requirement of "from Amazon" to "someplace that has overnight shipping".

Yes, customer requirement is that they need to be able to order from Amazon and it needs to be in stock to place the order today.
This is why I don't like working for outside customers. WTF?! sighhhh

LOL, that's TOTALLY different since Amazon doesn't offer that on this kind of gear. They need to call Softmart or CDW. Softmart can normally have gear like this for us same day if they are able to drive to the local Ingram Micro location and next day if not. Just called Shannon at Softmart and get what they need ordered for them.

Yeah, this was a "proposed solution" instead of "stated goal". Their solution that they just made up out of nowhere totally compromised their actual goal of getting it quickly. If I knew that I needed gear fast, I can literally get an Adaptec card up the street in an hour walking there on foot if I need to!
