Actually, not.  There might be SOME left in inventory, but the deep
inventory is already on the way back, starting to show up in the daily
inventory/sales reports.  The last thing that the remaining retailers want
to do is sit on inventory that is taking up floor space in their
warehouses, as well as having to pay for the product.  At the retail level,
all product has 60/90 day billing, so instead of paying for it, they just
ship it back for credit.
