Sneaky algorithm
It seems to me that certain items only appear in GO HQ when either I don't need them, or I haven't got enough room in my storage to buy them. I have thought this for a while but thought I was probabl...

Haha, okay I'll bite.
I opened up the game and clicked on the first hard hat I saw. Requirements:
2 of those french handbags (good luck getting many of those in HQ)
4 watermelons
4 panes of glass
4 bags of cement
5 minerals
6 screws
I needed glass, cement, and watermelons.
First click on HQ, a few seconds after clicking on the hard hat: Glass was in the list.
Waited for the 30 second expiration. Clicked Refresh in HQ. Found cement in the listing.
Went to a second hard hat. Things that I actually needed more of were: suits, light bulbs, and a Japanese lantern.
Went to HQ. Found 2 cities offering suits and 4 cities offering light bulbs. (And one city offering another glass for the first hard hat).
Of course, there will be things that are more in demand and as such, harder to find. That does not mean conspiracy, it means a marketplace with items in high demand.
Now, after the latest expansion, try finding anyone selling City expansion items! Everyone wants to expand again!

I'll just correct that statement ... there's plenty of availability of Exhausts and Dozer Blades. Indeed I'm awash with them, and having to sell them to preserve Storage capacity. But Dozer Wheels? No way!! Current stock is 16-2-15, and all I keep getting [on the rare occasions I get a bubble pop-up] is more of the same. So something is holding them back from me.
No surprisingly I never get to buy them at the Global Exchange. I'm on a 10Mbps connection, so it takes up to 10 seconds to open the relevant City's Exchange ... you can guess the rest!
(Edit - oh, another Dozer Blade! How kind!]
