Default ARF Restocking

Does anyone know why Tower is out of stock on many arfs, including Goldberg and Sig products? Many arfs won't be available until late June. Why is this? Are there problems receiving goods from China?

Ever build a kit? If so, you know it can take a lot of time to build and cover an airframe. Of course, the ARF manufacturers are set up to do it much faster but it I imagine that it still takes time, especially when you have a large run to do.

On top of that you have the boat ride accross the Pacific, customs stuff, getting it to distribution centers, etc.

Then there are the unforseen delays, economic and other issues.

I know the out of stock thing is really annoying but I can see how it might happen.
