> retailers are showcasing a limited number of goods that they expect to sell fast.

I wonder how much of that is true and how much is just make believe.

Anecdotally, last year a bit before Black Friday we wanted a new iPad (unrelated to the event, it just happened that way). Ordering directly from Apple had a 2 weeks delivery date, getting it from Amazon during Black Friday landed it 2 days after in front of our door.

And it was cheaper (same price, but bigger storage)
