compra por discontinuidad u obsolescencia (para cubrirl o garantizar)
Explanation:

Many part obsolescence mitigation strategies exist for managing obsolescence once it occurs, including: life time buy (also referred to as final order or Life Of Type - LOT buy), last-time buy (also referred to as bridge buy), part replacement, aftermarket sources, emulation, re-engineering, salvage, and design refresh/redesign of the system. The opportunity to make lifetime buys is usually offered by manufacturers of electronic parts prior to part discontinuance (usually in the form of a published “last order date”). Lifetime buys play a role in nearly every electronic part obsolescence management portfolio no matter what other reactive or pro-active strategies are being followed.

agree  Bubo Coroman (X): creo que ésta encaja con el contexto, porque lo de "stockpiling" supone que la persona nunca se deshace de lo que compra, en el supuesto de que la "estrategia" referida sea la de particulares, es decir clientes de la empresa

Compra adelantada de futuros productos descontinuados"


Explanation:
Hola.

Poco tienen que ver este término con la "compra para toda la vida". Además, poco tiene que ver esa frase con el resto de la oración.
En realidad ese término se refiere a la compra por adelantado que se hace de algún producto o repuestos que corresponden a un producto cuyo fabricante informó que lo va a descontinuar. De esa manera, a pesar de que el producto original y sus repuestos se dejen de fabricar, se podrán seguir consiguiendo gracias a los comerciantes que adoptan esta estrategia de compra.
La realidad es que no conozco ninguna traducción exacta o equivalente en español. Yo usaría "compra adelantada de futuros productos descontinuados".
Hope it helps,
Saludos.
