Actually it should settle in after a bit of driving. A car is not light as you think especially on the springs. I don't think retailers wanna say see results in six months. We as customers don't want to wait that long either. you should see results after driving it for a short time. I've never heard of this scenario before but unless your shocks are weak already. As digndoug says, suspension is designed to be lower in the back, which I can say can be true too, and that is the way most new cars are designed, but spring manufacturers have already researched and tested spring design to anticipate that. For the most part, why do you think most springs have a lower drop in the front than the rear. then again, if that doesnt compensate, I've seen most cars drop the way they are suppose to.
