Other / copy on beanie catalog
English term or phrase: stocking
The only thing you should be scared of is not stocking them.
This sentence is found in a catalog of beanie toys,
and after describing how cute they are and then the
above sentece is mentioned.

I thought it was to stock and leave the toys untouched,
but is their any meaning to make a soup of them?

stocking = carrying that stock = 仕入れる、扱う
Explanation:
It's just a silly marketing ploy to mildly threaten (store owners) that scary things may happen if they *don't* stock beanie toys.

No soup! (-:

Thanks. The sentence is on a photo of pretty children playing with the toy. And so I didn't think about any busuiness meaning.
