I've never understood the idea of stockpiling. From the sellers point of view, a sale is a sale, what difference does it make when. I would think most businesses facing a questionable and almost certainly disappointing season would take any sale they can get, as soon as they could get it. Can someone explain.

People on Black Friday have more money to spend. The trick is to get them inside your store. That's why you hold the most desirable items and discount for Black Friday, because that will attract people to your store.
In addition, if people find what they want on Black Friday this year, they will be more likely to return to the same store the next year. If everything they want is out of stock, they'll likely change to a different store next year. So you want to have the best merchandise available to the customer.
