Okay! So I go down to a local Target and find two wave 9 figures. I go to the checkout only to see that I paid 7.99 for each!!! That's right 7.99 each. No mistake on the DCPI number or anything. I was so excited that, unfortunately for me, I didn't notice till I got home. What the hell is going on!!?? Anyone else seeing this? I saw a thread for a Walmart hike, but now this? If this keeps up I will have to stop buying!

They're going to kill off the casual buyer if they keep this up. It's bad enough that I had to severely cut back on my toy spending thanks to insane gas prices. The higher in price that these go, the less likely I am going to be collecting them all.

No kidding, when I saw the price, it made me so mad. It's bad enough most of us invest lots of time and gas, and then the price goes up? Again?

you know it could be a one time whoopsydaisy. I went to a Burgerking within the last 2 weeks and ordered 3 valuemeals kingsized for me, my bro, and his friend, and they total came out to 8.99. which was awesome. It may just be a one time thing that the PC Charged and they might cash it. then again bush could fart oil so....who knows

Remember back in February Wal-Mart raised their price above the 5.99 retail price to 6.84 This sucks if it happens again. I saw a thread with someone saying their WM had a price hike too. If both Target and Wal-Mart raise prices again that is bullshit. Anyone ever notice that Target and Wal-Mart never raised their price on the comic packs seems kind of funny that single card figures have raised in price a few times now, but comic packs stay the same.
