Hey @Alybird! I mentioned that I'd chatted with General Pearl on another thread - I can't see that thread anymore, figured I'd just start a new one.
General Pearl was really helpful and generous with their time and expertise I originally wrote in to inquire about supearl availability, they explained they had nothing in stock and likely wouldn't for a long time. They've got PEPCA board member (members? I don't recall) on staff just like Takahashi does. The person I spoke to was a PEPCA board member actually.
The conversation was incredibly educational so I'll just copy and paste bits of our emails here - I know you aren't looking specifically for PEPCA strands but they also show how forthright and responsive they were IMO. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them in future if Takahashi wasn't able to source what I wanted.

And a few of the photos they sent me for reference, there were more but I don't have them on my phone - these are the ones I found most helpful:
