Kristen Wilson says
Wow, I had no idea, these are really cool things too.. I surely hope they aren’t gaming the system, you know? Curious though, when one is crossed off, what does that mean?
Amy Kathleen Kelsch says
Hi Kristen,
If a company sells out of a product or moves the product to a new link, the link will automatically appear crossed-off on the website. Good questions.
