Spring is here...sort of!



The cherry blossoms are in full bloom around Tacoma and Seattle, though it is still gray, rainy and cold. Now would be a great time to order and enjoy some Samurai Persimmon bars, as the cherry blossom is featured prominently in our eagle's talons.

I've begun to ship via FEDEX now, but haven't been able to plug in the new totals into Paypal simply because they don't partner with FEDEX and there are too many variables. We're transitioning to a new online shop that will allow you to choose either USPS or FEDEX and the rate, but it has just taken more time than I anticipated. If you want to order more bars and want to cut down on shipping (like in half) you should drop us an email via the orders@noble-bar.com and tell us what you want, and then give us a business address to ship the bars to. FEDEX has a separate delivery service from FEDEX Ground (called FEDEX Home Delivery and it costs as much as UPS or the Post Office in some cases). I can then send you an e-invoice and you can pay with a CC.

I'm going to be traveling for a bit over the next week, so if you need bars, Corey will be here to fulfill them.

You'll notice the price of the bars went up $.05 each. This was necessary to offset the costs of the shipping boxes we had made so we could ship via FEDEX and cut the costs significantly. As I stated earlier, the Post Office provided free boxes for their shipping, but you were paying $10.35 for one box, which is just too high.

We're going to be crafting some surveys in the future and I would appreciate any feedback we could get from you all.

Everyone have a great week.
