Why is Sanibel still available ?

Let me throw in my 2 cents

If I remember correctly (feel free to post corrections to my memory of this story) early on when sale's people were taking orders from dealers, a dealer ordered about 1/3rd of the production of Sanibel leaving the rest of the dealers with about a maxinum of 3 pieces each. Then HL decided to scrap all the original orders and go to an allocation system for Sanibel to be fair to all dealers. I am guessing that when each dealer was told how many they could buy, many dealers bought the maxinum assuming that it would be the one and only chance to buy Sanibel creating an instant
sellout and a false retirement (not that it realy wasn't retired) just that the allocation created panic among dealers after some of them missed the boat with follow up orders to Thomas Point.
