Or more accurately burning it, when they could make some money by selling the older I bought items at a discount. People will just wait around to get the discount instead of buying full price. Same reason a lot of grocery stores will throw away food when its fixing to expire versus discounting it (particularly with fresh fruits/vegetables). Some discount a bit, but if they made it a major occurrence people would just wait until you could buy it for $1 instead of $5. --- "I think that man will be president right about the time when spaceships come down filled with dinosaurs in red capes" - Tom Hanks <cite>Capn Circus posted [p:905378888] in luxury bra...
