That's probably even worse. lol

I'll never understand how retailers operate. I guess it's a balance of inventory, warehouse space, underestimating the demand...idk.

It really just comes down to software making decisions based on incomplete or incorrect information. All it takes is people entering something into the system incorrectly and their pricing algorithms go to town with it. That's also how we end up with Walmart charging $37 for their own exclusives on the website/app.

This right there. The Walmart sale included all of their exclusives (NF joes, retro Transformers etc) so it was probably just somebody adding all the items and not looking at each individual one.

Not sure if anyone has ever ordered from the site Joe Bits, but I just picked up an extra Stinger Driver from there for $32 in addition to a handful of bits and bobs for customizing and kitbashing.

After a quick look at ebay, that seems to be a pretty good deal. My Stinger is tracking to arrive tomorrow, but I knew I would want another driver figure without ponying up for another Stinger.

Wait, are Tiger Paws on sale somewhere? I am still waiting for mine from Gamestop. The only other time I pre-ordered from Gamestop it was for Snow Serpents and they cancelled half my order, so not sure how worried I should be.

I just did a quick check & (Pulse UK) still doesn't have Paypal Pay in 3 working though Paypal credit seems to be back now that was missing as well until fairly recently.

Is Pay In 3 / Pay in 4 working on any of the other regional Pulse sites I wonder ?

The only VHS tapes I still own are the original releases of the Star Wars Trilogy, without all the changes.

Are you able to watch them? We had televised recordings of the first two, where the commercials were still in the running time. ROTJ was the only store-bought version.
