Because they pay less than others?

Probably for the same reason they don't carry every current models.
They don't want to be stuck with slow moving stock that ends up
costing them more than what they would make in sales otherwise.

Big store chains contract with the mfrs They often wait until they get a
favorable price for a large quantity.

Guess that means I'll have to wait for the Powershot SD550 to make it into
