It might be that. A lot of product was sold during the Xmas rush.
But what I suspect is going on is that with the high tariffs on imported goods resellers are not sure if historical sales models will be valid. So to keep prices down and the business model viable most are trying to keep inventories down.
With the effort to keep inventories down, the lead time issue with getting products from overseas will become more and more apparent.
So the short of it is, if you want something order it. This is a sure way to let the reseller know that there is a market for the product. This will give them (not just Aloft Hobbies) motivation to stock products.
But in the mean time with the current market, tariffs and that the customs office is all but shut down, we are lucky that we have anything to play with.
Keep this in mind when you vote (assuming you are a USA citizen).
All the best,
