Probably because a lot of people start buying their Christmas gifts more than just a few days before Christmas. So, that being said, more people will buy it as a gift, so higher sales (and better longevity, because it will have about 2 weeks before Christmas, then all the people who buy it with their Christmas money ... etc. people who wouldn't have bought it otherwise)
