Intex "out of stock" question

[justamom]

How long are items normally out of stock at the Intex store?? We are wanting to make an evap. cooler/fountain and I desperately need another skimmer hose adapter B however each time I have checked the past 2 weeks they have been out of stock and I really don't want to pay 5x the price to order off Amazon.

Thanks!!

You can never tell about them they are notoriously slow...and there shipping times are terrible i ordered a couple parts from them that was in stock 3 weeks ago and just got them yesterday.

ugh, maybe I will just pay more to get it in a timely fashion
Thanks!

Are you sure you cant use another type of hose of the same size? Not sure what you are trying to do, but they are basically 1.250, and 1.5 inch hoses.

This piece is the adapter/cover that attaches the skimmer hose to the intake for the pump, I have one for that purpose but need a second to place on the return jet to create a cooler like the one pictured in this thead pool-water-relief-in-an-intex-pool-t24483.html?hilit=intex
Here is what the piece looks like
