We are just approaching the time of year where we see that great annual British event in the video game business. I refer of course to the hijacking of a truck load of whatever is the hottest product this year. Will it be a truck load of Nintendo Wiis or maybe Halo 3s this year? We will see.

Whatever it is you can’t sell a 40 foot container of stock at a car boot sale. So it must re-enter the trade distribution channel somewhere. And that re entry will be completely organised well before the hijack.

Do you keep a pair of ladies tights in your drawers to pull over your head when you are out earning your Christmas bonus? Tell us about it and we will keep your IP address a secret. Honestly.
