They do not get new pieces of that particular model unless they already sold their current inventory (and activate the warranty). I cannot speak for shady AD but legitimate ADs will sell any desirable pieces immediately and most of them are sold within 24 hrs of them landing at the store. If it’s in the safe for more than 24hrs it’s already sold and paid for and they’re only waiting for the customer to pick up.
So stop spreading speculation, lies, or nonsense about ADs being a gigantic vault of 5x daytona and 10x subs just waiting for the right customer [emoji849] they’re in the business to sell. If you don’t know, don’t spread false information.

Do they get allocated to a customer, or a SA? I ask because perhaps the OP’s SA was due for a Sub to sell, and didn’t actually have a customer requesting one. If that’s even a thing?
