Quote - I doubt they would hold products back intentionally. They might turn down V4 vendered items, since v4 isn't their focus, but it would be bad business practice to purchase an item only to keep it locked up.

Well, I know at least one outfit for which they did that, and as I said I smell this has been happening for some characters.. :/  Bad business practice, most likely, but I guess it's their way to tell people "just forget about V4, and go get our brand new Genesis stuff now".
