[comp.sys.atari.st] Atari spare parts shortage: fact or fiction?

bane@mimsy.UUCP (John R. Bane) (07/13/89)

My local dealer (Cal Com in Wheaton MD) says that Atari has not given him
ANY spare parts for some time now.  I've been waiting for a replacement
DS drive (old square button) since March; others have been waiting for
less esoteric parts.

Has anyone else noticed a shortage?  Is my dealer, Atari, or some random
middleman to blame?
