Simple. You cannot advertise something for a specific date if you do not have stock. There are penalties for this. Why sell it before if you're advertising as having it in store and on sale from X date?Originally Posted by M-bot

That's a pretty sensible argument. Perhaps they have some stock out, while withholding some stock to ensure they have at least a few units available for the sale?
Again, I would suggest my experience with Big W last year was a poor one. They had the Lego Helicarrier for sale for probably less than 1 minute of the sale before the extremely limited supplies were exhausted (making a mockery of their catalogue advertisement). And no Devis at all (not Big W's fault, I seem to remember a distribution issue from Hasbros end).
No penalties were brought to bear in that instance that I'm aware of. Not sure why they would worry now.

If you're an everyday rewards card holder, you'll probably also get an email with "early bird" access to sale items.

No Fort Max/Victorion at Big W Dapto or Warrawong... After last year, not sure if they're following the embargo or just haven't got any stock
