Is it possible to restructure the price or ordering so that you aren't always ordering the full complement of orders from Bookeen? For example, find a way to get 50 orders ahead or something.... so you are selling from stock, and once half the stock is depleted place another order.

I think at this point you have made enough orders with Bookeen to get some terms with them. If they gave you net 30 or even maybe net 15 you would be able to keep some in stock... I think this would increase orders too... since most people in the "internet age" don't want to wait possibly up to a month for something that they order.

Also, just because your not for profit doesn't mean you can't sell for more than your costs to have some operating assets. Once your there it might be easier to get lines of credits, better merchant account deals, etc. Doesn't non-profit only mean that you roll 100% of the money back into the company?
