Whoever did that repack is pretty hillarious, not to say I like or encourage repacks.

Urban myth. I've never done that, nor have I ever seen it be done. Sounds like you have experience with it thou?

He also didn't mention the collectors that hide merchandise behind other toys or underneath the base shelves in other departments. The sad thing about that is that it screws up inventory and at the end of the year when the merch is found its damaged.

won't deny alot of collectors hide certain items,but from my experience alot of toys r us employees as well as other major retail employees who work the backrooms end up only putting half cases on the floor and take the hard to find items to collector shops.at least collectors who buy from these store keep what they have and not turn them around for a profit,at least the true collectors.

I've actually witness TRU employees doing this for owners of secondary stores. I was collecting Star Wars figures at the time and there was nothing on the shelves. As I was getting ready to leave I saw an employee bring out SW figures and vehicles from the back, and give them to an owner of a comic book store I go to at least twice a week. So yeah I'm incline to believe some of these employees exisit.
i've heard a few store owners admit to this, either to other customers or to myself. when i was collecting SW in the 90's... one dealer told me he was doing this in the 80's with SW toys at TRU and Kay-Bee (I think it was KB...might have been something else).
