Ok, see? My post was stupid & embarrassing. You probably think I'm a fucking idiot for posting it.
*BUT* check this out I have 2 identical items, you & one other guy are there buying from me at the same time. I tell him he can have one for $20 but YOU have to pay $43. Yes you would be furious! You would come on here & start a new thread about it. "you're not gonna believe what happened to me today! I was at the store & this asshole sold another guy the figure I wanted for $20 but he told me I had to pay $43. But he didn't have any explanation. Just being a big fat douchebag! What a $*&$#%^$!!! blah blah" See? It would be ok for you to feel that way but for me, I should be embarrassed. Isn't it funny how that works? And besides, going & making a stink to the store manager might actually work. It's 50/50. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, but you never know til you try. So why the fuck should I be embarrassed??? I think it's a safe bet that if local Skywarps, AT-STs and other things aren't on clearance in your area yet, they eventually will be. |

It sucks, because i already had the vintage playset... I just wanted the new Roadblock and Tripwire's accessories...
I'm not even searching for it as a clearance item... I'd be happy to pay full price for it... Why does it have to be so damned hard to find these things?!?!?! *sigh* ...I hate it too. I just want to be able to go to a store, pay retail price for something (like that Outpost Defender with RB) and have ONE for my collection. And I refuse to pay jacked-up prices on the secondary market, that just encourages this mentality. |

At the one I went to they had a few battlestations at half price, the larger 12" SE and SS with motorcycle at half price, 2-packs at half price, and the Night Raven at half price. They also had the Marvel Iron Man and Cap. America sets with the larger enemy figure at half price as well. |

Today was the Walmart clearance day people dream of!
Skywarp: $10 AT-ST: $10 OctoDroid: $10 Night Raven: $10 Transformers Hardhead & black Silverbolt jet: $5 Dewback: $5 Rebel Pilots 3-pack: $3 Devastator: $50 Ninja battles: $10 Gigantic battles: $5 Transformers movie 2-packs: $5 Now I didn't get all of this, only a few of what I wanted. Quick math is I got about $300 worth of stuff for $60! I'm just relaying the prices so people can keep an eye out. It's funny, but when I was there, I was the only collector. There were about 3-4 moms with shopping carts packed with this stuff clearing them out. There were several of each these on the shelf when I got there, but as of now, Night Ravens are probably the only thing left. Most of the other walmarts around me are still full price. It's funny, but they also had a full set of DCUC wave 11 on the shelf untouched. I'm glad I saved my receipts from when I paid full price for some of this. Got quite a chunk of change back today as well! |

I swear if that Skywarp is 30.00 or less.. it is coming home with me!!! I will damn sure drop 30.00 on it but I won't drop 60.00. And for 30.00 I may even have the nerve to take it out of package!

Besides, all the shopping moms had 1 or 2 in their carts, and there were maybe 2 left on the shelf, which I know are now gone. However, I'm happy with my AT-STs! |
