I can hear it now.... "yes, we would like to sell you those blue train • windows, but

Let's hope this scenario is not true!

Just Speculating,

Of course, if they allowed AFOLs to bulk order pre-production, they wouldn't
have to worry about depleting their inventory because they would know in
advance how much of each part they need to manufacture (their needs + AFOL
advance bulk order needs = Total Production run of part X).

I don't know about you, but I'd be happy to wait three to six months for my bulk
order to make it through the production queue--at least it'll be *possible*.
(However, I know that such a delay would not be acceptable for most FOLs, and
wouldn't be the sort of thing TLG would base its service around.)
