Patton is a bit harder to defend than a collection of movies from the 1930's, but still, consider how many movies are out on DVD. Consider that fact the new releases that you say stores have 500 copies of are usually all stashed together in large center displays that are changed out weekly and probably sell at a higher gross. It all comes down to the bottom line and I think in general what these stores do makes sense. Ive had to order things online before, I admit its a bit of an inconvenience, but perhaps working in retail has given me an insiders perspective on how things work and just a bit more patience.
