Lucky.  Nearly everything we touch is +25-40% and 40-62 weeks out.  Being a manufacturing company for industrial machines, how do you plan production almost a year and a half out?

 
Major automotive parts warehouse. We are still trying to build inventory up from the last 2 years. Staffing is pretty close to 100% and the big boss tells us we will stop being made to work overtime by the end of August but most of us aren't so sure. No way prices will move down till we get back to a 98% fill rate. I assume that every other seller will be in the same position, just with differing time frames. I can't help with prices as I'm not in on that end of the business.

We were around 60% at our lowest as I understand. Maybe November of last year, maybe January of this year. I don't know where we are at now but 75% sounds pretty close. I don't know what order fulfillment is. You doing 93% right now is fantastic.
