CX Is Not Quite That Popular Here, So They Still Have Tons Left.
I have noticed that CX, while a popular subject matter, seems only popular by locality. It is not a universally popular livery. I think that because everytime I order CX I order extra thinking that it will sell well. Not so. I think I still have an inventory of CX that were released from a year ago. Lufthansa, CX, BA, the three that seems most over done are also the most challenging for me to sell. But here is what is interesting. While I still have a few BB Lufthansa left in stock from last year, and not moving, I had a number of the Lufthansa GSE sets that sold out for more per unit than the planes did!

I would guess that a UK retailer is going to sell more BA than he is CX. A Hong Kong retailer is going to sell more CX than he is Alaska Air. I am going to sell more Alaska, United, NW, Delta, Continental, than I am BA or CX. I have sold more units of the Pan Am Concorde fantasy model than I have the recent CX.
