Does anyone know what it means when a kayak is heat-stamped "STORE"?  It's not marked "DEMO" or "BLEM" or anything else, just "STORE".

It's an OK Trident 13.
I expected the worst, but it was worse than I expected...

Perhaps a store display model,  not directly a sale to a customer?
"A venturesome minority will always be eager to get off on their own,
and no obstacle should be placed in their path;
let them take risk, for God sake, let them get lost, sun burnt, stranded, drowned,
eaten by bears, buried alive under avalanches -
that is the right and privilege of any free American."
--Edward Abbey--

It's a mystery.  Even Ocean Kayak (Johnson Outdoors) didn't know what it means.  I think it means it's very rare and extremely valuable - at least I'd like it to mean that- but I think al is right.

Thank you Mojo and al.
