Because at some point it becomes cheaper to ship and destroy than to store and sell.

Inventory is "dead money" in accounting books!

Money has been converted to Obtainium and Obtainium just sits there until it is converted back to (hopefully more) money, taking valuable space that could be filled with more Obtainium as soon as it goes away.

At some point that Obtainium sitting there unsold just becomes un-space and destroying it becomes the cheapest move.

But what about ship and sell? That's what I'm talking about. Storage is very cheap in developing countries.

My hope for more reasonable pricing so they sell all units is then perhaps naive?
