I can make a product, sell it, and say it's backlogged for 2 weeks. I get 100 orders a week, and make sure my factory makes 50 a week. See, backlogged.

Originally a large log placed at the back of a fire. Figurative sense is first attested 1883, via notion of "a reserve of something stored up."

You see, backlogged means they have extras but won't hand them out until needed... (like when people start complaining too much...)
