You're not in a position to guarantee such a thing, and how long do things need to be delayed before it becomes "not OK"?

Doesn't much matter if the parts don't show. Lots of other options become more viable if you'd know you aren't getting the parts until half way through the season.

As a side note, re-read the first couple of sentences in the product announcement. It is implied (stated, even) that there wasn't any sort of long-lead issue with anything in the announcement.
