[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because it comes from warehouses, like Amazon and not individual stores and those warehouses only deliver to specific catchment zones.[/quote]
This. It's distribution not some grand conspiracy [/quote]

Yup.

The way these mail delivery services (Amazon, Walmart, Target, etc) work is that they have certain distribution warehouses or delivery points.  When your distribution source is out, they stop delivering to your zip code unless the source is replenished.  They don't spend money to move shipments from warehouse to warehouse, they just wait until your distribution point is refreshed and then they will deliver to your zip code again.  But if you live in a dense area like Montgomery County, especially one that is denser with higher income density, then you may find this happening more because your locale is purchasing things from their warehouse faster than they can stock and restock popular items.  They can increase the requested items, but they are at the mercy of the distribution source to deliver more of the product to that warehouse. [/quote]
