Well, no new product will arrive until the old product sells out. Simply put.

My area is a lil diff. Sure we got the standard peg warmers in some stores other are empty. Talking about Target. But the comic packs are becoming the new peg warmers. You could easily find all of the comic packs in the 2 Targets I visit. They got plenty of them.

AVAC those pics are worth a thousand words of frustration... kudos to you for not just coming on here and bitching, but to commiserate;
I feel y'all's pain for sure- for some reason Hasbro has recently "remembered" MI, so here's my question... We've got wave 6 & 7 here, and I'd be happy to send them to some members here at cost, but I don't know if anybody would be willing to pay that much... I'm thinking $7 (fig+tax), $5 shipping, $3 gas = $15. That's more than I would pay, but maybe that's just me...

If I'm off on the shipping or $15 is reasonable for you PM me and maybe I can help alleviate your empty-pegged misery.

15$ per figure? or total...

last time i checked it usually only takes 1 gallon of gas to get to the store and u can buy multiples.

packing/shipping shouldn't take 5$ per figure... maybe 2$ if buying multiples...

and you would still make a ok profit

unless of course your intention was to sell them at 15$.. if so I would just go buy all the vipers and u will make 15 each w/ no problems.

Last time I checked gas was almost $4, especially in Michigan. Shipping priority mail is $4.60 from Michigan to California, and first class mail is $2.32. So, $7 (a conservative price, since a figure plus tax at $6.84 is $7.25...) for the figure, $3 (minimum, keep in mind shipping materials for non-priority mail don't grow on trees, $.70 for shipping mats is reasonable, IMO) for shipping, and $4 gas is $14. You're going to balk about a buck, which basically amounts to wear and tear on his car and the time he took to find the figure? $15 for ONE figure, shipped, IMO, is more than reasonable... but hey, what do I know...

well I know the horse is dead but let me get out the old club. When the figures were 4.88 I'd get the one I didn't want just to take one more off the peg. Now that they are 6.84 I'm not going to do that.

Sell more at a lower price or sell less at a higher price? How do you make more money? Never once did I see full pegs at 4.88 for more than a few hours.

They're still selling out here - and quickly, at that - for the new price.
