It lends itself to a bigger problem with S@H: they continue to display things
that are sold out (discontinued)...while it’s noble of them to let us know
that there will be a restock, far too often they leave things up which they
know have been discontinued....it’s not unlike the infamous color
change...they’re ****ing with us, leading us on.

I think this happens because the item is NOT sold out all over the world.
Remember that by setting your shipping location, you get different Shop At Home
websites--North America, Europe, Australia, etc. They are NOT actually different
websites, however, just different text and data behind them.
Okay, that exlanation is a bit muddy.
What I mean to say is, just because Blue baseplates are sold out in USA shop at
Home warehouse does not mean they are sold out in other fullfillment center
warehouses in other parts of the world. So the item actually exists somewhere
and the listing on the website remains so they can sell the stock that is left.
Make sense?
Of course, the programming for the website could be better to disallow such
things to occur....
