Also, not everybody who collects joes reads this site or another one and has access to the DPCI to have somebody look for them. There are collectors who just go to the store, see it isn't on the shelf and assume they don't have it.
But I do agree that no eBay listings should say "sold out in stores" because that is not the issue across the country.

watch, they will go on clearance (matter of when, not if) and you will not see a price drop on ebay or forums. i saw this happen the other clearanced exclusives.

Generally that's because clearances are store-specific. When the first round of exclusives were being clearanced for $2.50, they had been gone from my store for a month or two.

very true but don't look for those saving to be passed on to the secondary market for those that luck out and clear out clearance stock. it rarely happens.
i bought MANY of them on clearance and they all ended up in a closet and used as needed for projects with my kids. it's one of the better stories i have regarding joe hunting in terms of finds and dividends. i got priceless memories and customs for what i consider pennies on the dollar cost. i don't see the UBP in large numbers like others but at the current price, they are not moving at all. you can bet joe hunters will decend on them like ravenous wolves when they do get clearanced though.

I'm in Canada and I'm trying to get both jets and the Ultimated Battle Pack for Christmas, but we've got nothing in my area. All we have are the Armadillo and Air Chariots and the HISS Tanks and the modified carded single Joe figures.
I'm hoping to find them at Zellers, because they got a few of Target exclusives, but which were mainly Transformers, but it wouldn't surprise me if they didn't show up. It's good to know (well......for me at least) that they aren't that hard to get. I'm hoping to find at least one of these under my tree this year, but I'll probably have to wait till next year. |
