At the end of the year, have a sushi merchant that brings back all sushi merchant items sold that year but for double the price. This would give people who missed merchant appearances (specifically surprise ones that last 1-2 days) chances to get the items they missed without having to wait 1-2 years again for them to (possibly) return!
#Sushi Merchant Summary (2x cost & end of year)

Potential counter arguments:
- This would be unfair to people who bought items when the merchant originally came. The 2x cost multiplier could be adjusted but this would be the intended method of keeping things fair(er) for those who bought merchant items at the original time of their arrival.
- People who buy returning cosmetics would want those cosmetics to age so it's "rarer" and bringing them back at the end of the year would reset those timers. If it's coming back in the merchant, it's not rare anymore. Why try to gatekeep items the OG owners (who didn't obtain through merchant) couldn't gatekeep?
- Then people could just stockpile rolls until the end of the year and not care about attending merchant events. No - 2x multiplier would make it painful. Also people wouldn't want to wait that long anyways; this wouldn't be used as some "strategy" or anything.

yes but that doesn't mean never and we have seen this with cosmic ade, takoyaki, and comet shaved ice (and probably others)
The point of the suggestion is to give a chance for those who missed the merchant due to unavailability to get the items
And since merchant items are voted for by deluxe with some influence from julia, if majority agrees for an item to have a second wind with the merchant, the "may never return" comment has a grey area
