You know, I can understand the first price increase because of the economy and all (price of oil, etc), but another one is beyond stupid. Some of you may say it's not, but I for one will stop buying in a heartbeat.
My whole collection is about to be up for sale (Waves 1 - 8, loose/complete and MOSC) because of the price, the terrible distribution, and with all the new product coming. Ridiculous. Right? I could use a Flint, Torpedo, and Flash. Thanks!!! |

Fuck you, Target. They can't even keep the goddamn things in stock.

Wow, thats HIGHER than they are in Canada now. WTF???
they are only $7.92 here, they always have been, but our stuff is always more than your stuff. maybe because of OUR strong dollar, instad of OUR prices lowering to match yours, YOUR prices are rising to match ours. ehhg! |

I not sure if this has been posted...Target is alos not accepting the $5.00 coupon in the chicago area now.
They said because of fraud. Apparently some genius photoshop moron took out the toy image on the coupon and was using it for the discount. This bull the coupon was good until October. WTF Target greedy bastards raise prices in less than a year and we can't even use the discount coupon.

And there you have it. Oil might play a part, but it doesn't play that much of a part(obviously) if everything else doesn't go up in price either. Comic packs and multi-packs are still the same price. It's an EXCUSE, plain and simple. Hasbro execs: "These things are selling like hotcakes, lets raise it up another dollar. I bet those collectors will still buy them! Bwahahhahhaa!" *laughs all the way to the bank*

I don't think the Indiana Jones figures are selling very well.
I don't think it has much to do with oil either. I think the increase is 'cause Joe figures fly of the shelves pretty fast and they can't keep them in stock so they charge more since people are willing to pay.

This sucks! I saw some 2 Buzzer's at a local target for $7.99 and thought to myself....They're never getting rid of those!! I thought it might have been a price hike at that Target, but apparantly we all got screwed!

It sucks but what are you going to do? Just buy less or space out your purchases.
