One of our LQSs has an abundance of fabric. I met the owner and had quite a conversation. She stated there were some fabrics she wasn't crazy about but she buys according to the varied tastes of her clients/customer/friends. She sells a lot of fabrics whether she likes them or not! She sends emails asking for suggestions. Only a couple times did I go into her shop and she didn't have what I hoped for. She made a note and let me know that she ordered it because some one else may have wanted and not seen and not said anything. When she gets it in, she emails to let us aware of what is new in the shop.
