RESTOCKS

After a few months with some testing, feedback and discussion, we have arrived at a solution for restock that we hope and believe will work well in the long run.

Note that restock in connection with holidays and events will take place regardless of what is written below.

The times for the usual restock will change from time to time for the sake of variation. If the times change, we will put a sign in the park about it.

The shops in the park
The shops in the park will only sell hats that are not sold in the kobbelshops. There will be two restocks a week, where we sell higher and varied numbers of each hat, than what is sold today. Restock takes place every Saturday from 12: 00-13:30, and every Wednesday from kl. 19: 00-20:30.

The number of each hat sold in the shop per restock is greater than today, as the restocks will take place less frequently.
Focus has been placed on the same hats not coming back for a long while.

Kobbel
The kobbels have some fixed hats that are selected for each kobbel. They will rotate in their own “system” only within that kobbel.
There is a low % chance that a hat will occasionally come in a random kobbel instead of in the regular shop. This means that on a rare occasion, a hat that should actually have arrived in the regular shops will end up in a random kobbelshop.
