Surely most the big brands will have sold the majority of their stock for this year well before the issue began? Most retailers took delivery late 2019/early 2020?

It's the retailers that will be hit as opposed to the brands no?

(Genuine question here, not digging holes!! lol)
Drop Shipments for retailers can go upto June.

Likes of Kook and GN will have had shipments from India arrive in the last few weeks, so they will be desperate for the shops and some sort of season to go ahead

^ That is what I would assume too- brands have already sold "this year's" kit to retailers and will already have 2021 stuff ordered. Smaller brands may roll over 2020 kit as 2021 but not the bigger brands. Real question then is will they sell much 2021 kit? Will retailers want to take that much on (of course they may be forced to with minimum orders)? Either way it looks toughest for retailers
Yes all the big brands would of been designing next years range from end of last launch. Pretty sure a few of them can get away with just redesigning stickers to go on the same bats for 2021. Lets be fair a few of them do if every year anyhow.

no chance of this happening....... the best deals will come from the smaller brands i would think.

i could be wrong but i cant see the likes of GN legends or GM le player editions being anywhere near £200.

i genuinely think if you are in the market for new stash now is the time to get it
No chance of premium grade willow becoming cheaper for the consumer unless a range from the big guys hasnt sold and they sell to retailers cheap to clear. I expect softs will be the where the bargains are
