So, now just buy em up, put em on Ebay and sell em to the Brits for a
little mark up! That'll fix em over that whole "tea" thing.

Thanks for the info. This is one of many times that tfw2005 has been
really wrong in one of their "news" articles.
They also caused me a huge headache they said that the Japanese Classics
Thundercracker was limited to 2000 pieces.

TT:

In retrospect, it's easy to see why this happened. Always be careful
with secondhand rumors, because whenever somebody hears something
and restates it, he puts it in a new context.

From the dealer's supplier's POV, "canceled" was a good word. The
shipment was canceled, so he cautioned the dealer against taking
preorders. From our POV, "canceled" meant something different.
Misunderstandings are easy when the rumor mill is turning.
