Poor Vendor

It's so frustrating when I speak to a vendor to find out half of the products that I ordered from the company at the New York Gift show are out of stock and not sure when and if they are coming in or they have decided to discontinue the stock of this item. My question to this vendor was; Why bother showing and spending all this money on a booth if your products are not available to the retailers? He answered me; We want our product available to the retailers but we just don't have the money to produce all the products. This did not make sense to me. So, unfortunately I told him to cancel my order. I don't like peace meal orders especially when I am only bringing in a limited amount of product from the vendor. Oh poor vendor I am not sure you are going to make it in the gift world.
