Mythanatos:true but they've still been available for purchase. up until a few weeks ago.
Yes, I realize that. That's why I framed my post the way I did. I didn't write they became unavailable for purchase 2 years ago. I wrote that were removed from the Pro Shop two years ago. That's a difference with a distinction.
And the point remains. If there were systemic issues, there would be multiple threads about this. Indeed, this issue was raised before (in a single thread, a number of months ago). While there were a couple of different opinions on what was happening, ultimately, the person who raised the question said the issue worked its way out.
In other words, any perceived issues are simple anomalies.
