@enyo, you theory is correct if: 1. the distributor orders a lot of stock and not able to clear. 2. the wave came in sequence one after another. some small department store only order like 2 cartons at a time. eg. MJ BTS. they restock 2 cartons of qombee on feb, then 2 cartons of camaro wave on apr, then when i was expecting a 55 chevy wave on jun, came again the qombee case restock. when i was expecting a fury wave restock on aug, came the bagger wave. by the time they clear the bagger wave stock (which i think will take another 1 months), let say they restock with 34 ford wave. so is MJ is the one to blame that they miss the 55 chevy and fury wave? can somebody enlighten me?
