Paint jobs for consumers

Curious what anyone thinks about this. Do racket companies remarket the same sticks the next season or a few seasons later with different paint jobs? In the latest Tennis magazine there was a blurb about the new Prince Beast stick that the writer says is just the Triple Threat Scream with a new paint job. Last year, I was searching for another Prince TT Stealth OS and was having a hard time finding one that was 28" like the original. After ordering several online that showed up at 27" and 27.5" I talked to one of the vendors and he said that Prince had released a lot of old quantity onto the market that were other models and just repainted to look like certain sticks. The look was the same, but definitely not the same racket. Lots of talk about the pros and their paint jobs, wonder if the consumers are getting painted themselves. Anyone have any experience with this?
