I think it is just that retailer. None of those around here.
But DVD pack one and two has gone up to $32/ea at KM here. $32. Each. For a pack you can get for $19 at WM across the street.

Ya, Shopko sucks for prices on most of the stuff they sell.
But they sometimes have stuff that I never see anywhere else. |

I have a K-Mart in either direction 7 miles from my house. One is so overpriced it's nuts--DVD packs 31.99, vehicles 18.99, single figs 9.89. The other one is priced within a buck of Walmart/TRU/Target. Pretty wierd huh?

That's what I'm saying,...how do these stores think they won't go the way of the KB's of the world? They can't possibly be paying more than (well maybe a little more due to how much they order) Walmart or Target, etc. Then they charge a ton for each fig/vehicle/cp and they sit on the shelves. Well no wonder they are hurting for business. I would love to sit in on one of their meetings to first see what they buy the stock for, and then second to slap the guy/girl that stands up and says "I know, let's raise our prices...that will solve our dilemna!"

Shopko's are not in malls, they are free standing stores. They also want $18 for the TF Universe Deluxe figures that are $10 to $12 most other places.
Last week they had a sale, buy 1 get 1 for 50% off. Wal-Mart was still cheaper. |

The thing that really sucks is that no one is going to buy their expensive toys (not most people anyways) and then they won't get any of the new/old (I've never seen waves like the Mutt and Junkyard) waves. I won't buy any other figures there but if I can find one Eel since they're behind I would be happy!

Shopko here is the same insanely high prices on Joes/Star Wars/Transformers, etc. I hope noone buys from them at these prices and they lose their asses on all this stock! Last year I thought KMart was high on their figures but this year they came down a little and Shopko went up.....alot! I thought I hit the jackpot(sort of)when I found 5 Iron Grenadier/Viper comic packs at local Shopko until I saw the price on them, $21.99 each!!!!!!!!!

Shopko has always been skyhigh. Not only that, but until recently their stores were shitholes that made Kmart look like Bloomingdales.

I don't have any Shopcos around me... But my local Target had individual figures at 9.99$ around December-January! But the Targets farther away from me were still selling them at 6.99$.
The new Marvel figures are also way too high priced! Where I live they're like 8.99$. COME ON man! I live in the ALbany NY area. That is just way too much! I'm already broke from GI JOE collecting. I still have to come up with the cash for the Best of 1980s pack & the new Cobra Island 7packs.... I need a new job!
