While you are busy on erev pessach stuffing the last morsels of chometz in your mouth, the rov is busy selling the chometz with a goy. I dont know about you but the only chametz I eat on erev Pesach is the cake served at the siyum bechorim which is long before sof zeman ACHILA not SOF ZEMAN BIUR which is when it has to be sold by. If it is not sold then Bittul should help (if done properly). Famous story with the Chazon Ish that he had a dream that made him check with the rov who instead of selling the blios in the pots sold the pots and then went and toiveled all his pots. I have never heard of a rav who did not do the mechira but last year I am pretty sure that a store in EY destroyed all their chametz because the partners did not make the mechira.
