Consumer experts say supply issues could delay toys this holiday season.

The global supply chain is playing catch-up from pandemic-related disruptions including factory shutdowns and a spike in online ordering.

That has led to a shortage of shipping containers, causing prices for those containers to skyrocket.

On top of that, a trucker shortage is delaying shipments from getting to stores.

Experts believe the supply chain will improve by next summer, but until that happens, waiting to make purchases could mean missing out on the perfect Christmas gift.
