The managers have a bit of a choice in what is carried in the store but all re-ordering is done without assistance. So if the figures are stolen, then the ordering system won't order any more and instead will send them to the stores where they are actually selling. If inventory gets done and the system gets updated, then you will see them come in again, if they are still available in the distribution center.

It actually explains why stores don't get in any more figures of certain waves while other stores keep getting them in.

Just my opinion here, but I think pegging the distribution problems on the concept of stolen items/returned stolen items is a stretch. Bought and returned maybe more so, but i would find it hard to believe that theft on that scale would affect stock so much. A slight bit yes, but like what was pictured I'm not so sure.

No offense intended. I mean, i disagree with the theory but I'm not saying you're wrong to have the theory.
