now import from china virtually non existent
The LHS also do the same, import from China. If you are facing issues the LHS would also face the issues. There is no way for us to jump the hurdles and at the same time there are so many leechers/black market sellers these days. They cut they margin and sell of the products at so low cost that we LHS cannot afford.
Buyers also like to buy things which cost less. Considering so many hurdles i don't see why any LHS would not consider to restock or would consider low stock.
Goods getting stucked in stock = Money stucked
