Why No Falcon?

[signoftheserpent 92]

Is there a reason that this ship isn't available at all? Unless you want to play silly money. Is it going to be properly reprinted at some point?

It got rereleased in the Uk a few weeks ago. Sold out pretty much everywhere within a couple of hours - mainly by assholes buying multiples so they could gouge us for cash on eBay.

There is another round of reprints coming I believe. I think it was on the list of stuff held up by the dock worker's strike.

There wasn't a strike; there was a labor dispute, a work slowdown, and a short lockout, but the dock workers never went on strike.

Amounts to pretty much the same thing though.

I don't know about no strike, but i hope the people that print and distribute these toys, especially in China, are getting properly paid - unlike the people Apple indirectly employs (and doesn't care about).

Reprint is still on the boat.

Hey Sign,

 

You may want to check your local Barnes and Noble, they seem to rotate their X-Wing stock to their stores. My local B&N didn't have it for 8 months, yesterday I went in there one was in all its glory.  I would have bought it if I didn't already have one.

[drunkensith 102]

my local store says they have some on the way.

If you pay ridiculous prices on ebay you deserve to be separated from your money.

Just look elsewhere, there are plenty to be had, if you look around on the internet. The world is a big place.

[Tokyogriz 697]

Ficklegreendice bought them all and started a large bonfire in his backyard!

I want a Spanish one

[ShakeZoola72 979]

I think they were held up with all of the other reprints due to the port labor dispute....supposedly there is a good 3 to 5 month backlog...so God only knows when they will be unloaded...

My local store expects more of all of the reprints next week here in the US. Patience for another week or two and you can avoid the absurd markups.

I'm going to go with the UK's distrubitor not being the best.

I dunno he came through just fine with S&V, not usual two week wait.

Planning for new product is easy. Determining how much of a reprint they want is another.

You have it mixed up...forecasting demand on a unknown product that has no sales history and is not a direct replacement do anything is actually quite difficult. With reprints you have actual figures to go off of...restocking tends to be easier and less risky than sticking new product...

Exactly i have worked in a warehouse and when you have sales figures you just get sent what you need, when it's new you usually get waaaaaaaaay too much of the stock and it sits around for month's.

Yep.

Saw one in a B&N yesterday. I only have one myself and thought about getting the one yesterday just to have but S&V has wiped me out a bit until a refund check comes in. And I don't have any more room for it in my box anyway unless I get creative.
