I understand that fully... But when the shelves that were quite recently full of boxes go bare, there are a few possible scenarios.
1)More sales of the unit and the stockers aren't keeping up.
2)More sales of the unit and there isn't more stock in the back.
3)Stockers are on a general strike at the major retailers and therefore all stocks are in back instead of on-shlef.
Based on NPD, clearly there was an increase in sales...
I fully understand the concept of "stock in the back" but I also know that any person who has a basic clue in merchandisng knows that they HAVE to have SOMETHING on display to sell it. If the shelf goes bare, most customers will just walk away and not ask...
