How do you know that something's really hot and not just a reoccuring deal? For example way back in the day Dell sold the Rebel XT for $700. Rossman bought a dozen and made a huge profit selling them.

I on the other hand thought that it was going to be a reoccuring deal because Dell has a history of these "hot" deals ($750 off $1500 laptop anyone?).

So how do you tell? When do you know that it's time to buy a lot and you are SURE that you can sell them off again for profit?
