The one thing I never could understand about repackers was how do they seemlessly pull apart the card and re-seal it?

They probably just use an exacto knife on the bottom edges then slide out the tray, loot what they want then slide it back in. A touch of super glue to a quetip to restick the plaastic down and wriggle to get the stuff lined up.
That'd be my guess. I use a Gerber knife to open all my GI Joe stuff and the stuff I _do_ open I try and keep things looking nice. I'm ___NOT____ a repacker. thats just my guess.

I saw at TRU a joe 5 pack with all the weapons missing, roadblock's foot was gone, flint was replaced with a red ninja and shipwreck was replaced with a member of the cobra infantry. It was on sale for 24.99 from the regular 29.99. I asked if I could get it half of that and they wouldnt. Saw the same set for 12.90 when I went back again. Saw this twice cept once snake eyes and timber was missing, weapons, and thats it. Another time at target someone repacked a 25th serpentor in the rhino...go figure.

I just came back from Target and I saw a repack of a Rhino with Lift Ticket. It looks so obvious to next to all the others that are correct. I wish I was able to take a pic, but my new phone hasn't arrived yet. I'm using my crappy back-up phone at the moment.

Yet another Target with another Rhino repack. This time with some lame figure, probably a Corps figure or something. I think the Rhino is going to be the all time favorite repacked item this year. It may surpass the 5 packs. Again, no pics because no new phone yet.

I was in meijer yesterday. Which is like walmart if you dont have them where you live. I saw two flight pod and ram cycle boxes with the flight pods missing, and the tele vipers. They put two ram cycles and a breaker in each one. I was laughing my @%^ off. As much as it stinks to see something on the shelf that you wanted and realize you cant buy it because its been repacked, its
really funny. Like two months ago Target put all ME/25th on clearence so I was going around and buying everything up. Well I saw a repacked corbra five pack third set. It had two soilders that wernt even gi joes in it. But the crazy thing was that the idiot put the third wave zartan and two bats in it also. It was selling for $4 something so I actually bought the repack. I also saw a night raven with the tru firefly in the front. |

Ok here is not only a repacker but a cheap one too.
Here in AZ we have Frys grocery stores and Frys market place owned by Kroger. The Marketplace versions are like a mini target attached to a grocery store. They have better toy aisles. Well 25th stuff is clearance there. The New 5 packs (joe, cobra , & resolute) are $12.49. That breaks down to $2.49 a figure. I have been stocking up on resolutes for army & trade. Went to 2 Marketplaces today and some jackass had bought & returned 4 resolute sets and replaced every figure with Corps figures. The joe set i saw had no accessories and VvV figures. I hate these people. Last edited by AlternateUniverse Steeler; 08-19-2009 at 03:03 AM.. |
