I don’t understand the decision by people at magazine distributor Gordon & Gotch an or their allocations people to move us from eight copies of Sudoku Samurai to fourteen. We had one sell out at eight copies, when the other newsagency in the centre was closed (and about which Gotch was advised).
Despite what I have noted above, I can understand the earlier move to twelve copies. I’d have thought that a fairer approach would have been to leave us there for three issues. But, no, they increased us. It makes me wonder if there is a bug or design flaw in their allocations system. I suspect it is a ‘flaw’ since they appear to respond quickly with supply increases and slowly with supply reductions.

But isn’t it “The Rule”
Quick with the interest rate increases,
Slow with the reductions………
