I just saw a 30th Cobra Trooper at a CVS pharmacy. The price is listed at $15.49!!!! That's an Ebay price. Sorry for not posting a pic, but I left my phone in the car. Anyone else see this? (and no, I'm not in Canada)

Drugstores are like supermarkets they only have toy sections so the kids there with their moms see the toys, want the toys, cry when mom says no and eventually gets said toy so they will shut up....Hence the two arms and a leg price.

Yeah our CVS has some Joes (including a RoC Ripcord) for around $15. The only one I'd pay that for would be Renegades Storm Shadow.

The reason why the pharmacies have to charge higher prices is because they get less stock in, so it costs them more to get the product at all.
Just like the online e-tailers. That's just the way the system works.
