This shit makes me sick. Whats with these people anyway?
My perspective on this situation is this: Prior to reading about it on this site, I have never seen this in my area, let alone ever conceived of such a thing either. I had never heard the term "re-pack" and initially didn't even know what it meant. I am sure there are thieves that lurk here that never had either. By us constantly bringing it up I think that it has had unintended consequences in that it has given these thieves "food for thought" and they have turned around and started doing this as a result. By trying to bring this situation to the forefront we have made it worse because invariably these guys are going to gravitate to this site one day or another and learn how to re-pack. Well, I believe that day has come and will only increase with the nostalgia that sure to come with the release of the movie. More people will get into it, more people will steal. As far telling anyone at these stores about it, look, most of them don't give a shit. Managers, cart people, service desk, concessions, whoever, they have bigger fish to fry or just plain don't care. Maybe we can annoy them to death? I saw one ( a re[-pack) down in D.C. when I went to visit and I did tell a manager. Thats the last time I ever do that. The guy basically embarrassed me without embarrassing me. His response was less than enthusiastic and he looked at me like I was some nut case. So... I have given up on that approach. I'm also not going to sweat it because realistically how many of these things am I going to buy anyway? Do we really care about other collectors? Are we really that virtuous? No, we just hate to see someone getting something else for free, basically having more than us and not deserving of it. So, really, we're just as selfish as they are, we just won't stoop to their level. After the experience I had I am giving up playing sheriff and Columbo. It's Target, TRU, Walmart and Kmart's problem. Thats why they have loss prevention, that's why these people have jobs. I wonder if any of them lose their jobs after we uncover these wackyrepackies? If so, good, I hope they do. After all, they're not doing their job, right? Ultimately they are the ones losing, not us.

OK wow, 12 pages and what I have figured out is this. Stores are stupid, re-packers are bad, maybe every repack story isn't true, the worse the economy gets the more repacking happens and Tankers are torn on the entire subject. ????

seeing all these repacks makes me realize why i can not get a part time job at target or walmart. im just not dumb enough to work there. Anyone else have a bunch a dumbasses working at their local walmart? i have 4 in my neck of the woods, and everyone of them is full of dumbasses. when i lived in naples, there was 2 i went to there, once again a bunch of dumbasses. im sorry if i offended anyone that may work there, but damn, it seems like you have to be damn near retarded to work there.
