Fair and predictable preorders for your store
Running a store is hard enough. You should not have to guess how much stock you will receive or deal with angry customers when allocations fall short.
Start Using Fair LumenThe preorder problem for stores
You take preorders based on what you hope to receive. Distributors give you estimates, not guarantees. When allocation falls short, you are the one who has to break the news to customers.
Meanwhile, high-volume buyers are absorbing supply from online retailers, and your community feels like they have no chance. You want to help, but you do not have the tools or the information.
