About 2 yrs ago I found some Iron Man and X-Men (toy biz) carded figures in a Value Village. They were marked $2.99 with black sharpie across the bubble. must have been donated from a collection somebody was thinning out. A few weeks ago I saw a POTF2 boxed A-Wing in Goodwill. They wanted $45...which is just crazy. They had it in the display case like it was some kinda hot commodity. Neither place is retail so guess my sighting don't count either

My local K-Mart put out a case of SW 2002 Saga figures (the blue carded ones) about a month ago. I suspect they were found in the stockroom after years of being lost. The cards are a bit crispy and warped but they put them out on the sales floor just the same. The scan at $5.99.. some have sold but most are still there. Weird

While working at a toy store in 1998 I found a 1988 Voltar under a shelving unit I was taking apart... a 10 year old figure was pretty cool to see again. I wish I bought it @ $2.99 but I was into Star Wars at the time and just put it in the clearance bin.
Recently I found a foil 25th Flash at Target. It appeared to be a stock room find, it would not scan, so the cashier let me have it for $2.99 lol I've never seen toys more than a few years after they were at retails. Sometimes I see LEGO sets from like, 2010-2011 even still at TRU, but that's not really that long ago. It is more because they absolutely refuse to clearance stuff out, so it sits for years. Only real story I have is one time I worked at a grocery store (back in like, 2001-2002). One time when we were tearing down the cereal aisle, we found boxes of cereal from the 1980s that had fallen behind/under the shelf.
