what the hell is going on.. why are they 59.99 a case now?
am I wrong or didnt some other people pre-order these at 54.99? I thought I did... From BBTS Could they have raised the price automatically? I mean its cool if they did.. but I thought maybe the would have sent an e-mail or something... perhaps hasbro raised their costs? or it could possibly be the fact that they are having to clearance stuff out.. they have CG's for 6.99 and Comic packs for 5.99... they have to be taking a bath on some of those canceled orders... |

Check your email receipt. BBTS changes prices all the time. You'll be charged what the price was at the time of your order unless they screwed up.

Thanks for noting that, Hellion!
Everyone, please also keep in mind that we knew about these increases months ago. First came the news of increases on the production level, thanks to Mattel & Dora the Lead Based Explora. Now all costs associated with the new laws are being passed down to us, of course. BBTS also shot out an e-mail warning us all that the price on stuff was raised by Hasbro, so to remain profitable, they had to raise prices too. I think, as we all look around, all online venues that sell toys are going to being raising their prices. |

Wave 7 and 8, both the Tuesday after they were found at retail, and still $50 case prices. Sure you can't cancel your preorder, without a fee, but... three days after retail! The only downside is they don't have any sort of comic packs, or TRU exclusives or anything, but that just means they can focus on the regular cases. (And they look like they have vehicle preorders up too...)

All of my pre-orders are still at the $49.99 rate although I did note that they have pushed wave 7 back to June which is a bit irritating

I noticed it too a few days ago when I cancelled my wave 7 and 8 and w4 comic packs preorders (found them all at retail already for way cheaper)
I was wondering if maybe I had remembered the wrong price. I dont think its right they raise prices without letting us know first. thats bad business ettiquete. We should let them know that. Last edited by Dark 5cythe; 05-20-2008 at 08:18 PM.. |
