October releases are usually light: Things that missed GenCon and companies releasing things a bit too early for Christmas for boutique stores like your FLGS.
As I base everything off of Game Trade Magazine by Alliance Games Distributors, it's fair to note that this solicitation is in Issue #200. Sometime around January of 2000 the first copy of Game Trade Monthly arrived in the mail to the store I was running. As much as I adored the old checklist solicitations and brightly colored weekly updates, this new magazine format looked polished, was chock full of item descriptions, plus the distributor provided five copies to each store for free to give out to the "good" customers. In my post-FLGS running days, I've never seen that occur (which is why I pull up the pdf off the website a month before it arrives in print), but the concept is good.
