Nobody may be charged twice, and stolen cards may cost Larkspur only a little. Then keep the most.
Set the best .
€5,290.66 kept CHARGED TWICE
No customer is charged twice, and Larkspur loses at most €50 to stolen cards; then keep as much money as you can.
Small orders
Small orders are cheap parts that ship the same day: a lost sale and a stolen card cost about the same.
Drill presses
A drill press waits for the supplier and ships on day 10, after a hold has lapsed.
Split baskets
A split basket ships what is in stock today and the rest within a week; some parts never come.
