Every small electronics company is dealing with this if they source high-quality parts. It's just gotten much harder in the last several years to source quality components in large numbers from China, and the big hardware manufacturers always get the lion's share.
Follow any similar companies and you see a similar stop-start pattern, quickly selling out, and yearlong preorders.
