After going through the packing slip I almost ordered some rather expensive
items because I thought that I forgot to order them. Some further
investigation turned out that the said items were indeed ordered originally
but the back ordered items did not show up on the invoice or packing slip as
being back ordered. After questioning Digikey their was their reply:
"After we hung up, I realized you were a Canadian customer. The back
orders will not show on Canadian orders crossing the border due to
customs. We can only show what is shipping on the invoice for tax
purposes. You stated that other companies show the b/o's, and if you
order from a company within Canada, they probably would as nothing
crosses the border. On all US domestic orders, we do show the b/o's. I
did check into this just to make sure and they verified that this is
correct. If there is some information you are aware of that would help
us in resolving this, please share and we can look into it as we would
love to make things easier for our customers. Please contact me with
any further questions."
I find it rather perplexing the Digikey cannot show on the packing slip those
items that are not being shipped.
