Really? It's cost effective to be out of something that everyone is
clamoring to buy?

It's cost effective to purchase and store stuff far beyond what is
normally sold, taking warehouse and shelf space away from other
merchandise that could be sold instead?

The problem is as previously noted -- by the time one finds out there's
going to be more than a normal demand, it is almost certainly too late
to receive more before the rush short-term demand is over.

If, otoh, you're so prescient as to be able to do things like that,
you'd be far better off spending your time at the race track or similar
venues.
