Okay, here's the issue, Target had a big X wing on clearance about 5 months ago, it went down to $27.50, before I could pick one up--cuz now the price is right, they were gone. TODAY I find one, still mib, no clearance price or sticker and the electronic sticker reader still read $49.99. Is there any way I can get this price down? Unfortunately, I saw a yellow sticker on the shelf and it read $49.99.
I dont want to pay $50 but I dont want to miss out either, any helpful hints or suggestions? |

tell a manager.
they're usually really good about holding to that sort of thing. it'll help if you have your phone handy and can google the sale.

Yeah I saw the same at 2 Target stores, they were clearanced a few months back and now each store has about 5 sets each back to the regular $50 price.

I found an article at Jedi temple archives with a picture of the clearance tag--it went to $34.98/30% off. Here is hoping, if I have time Im going back there tonite.

Do you have proof that you saw the lower price? Most places will do price matching (even their own). But if you can't prove it, they will tell you it was a "sale price" and that you're out of luck.

I picked one up one clearance at my target a few months ago. It was $9.99 I don't collect a lot of SW stuff,but I couldn't resist that one.
I had a similiar experiance with the first target 25th exclusives.They clearanced and were gone.Then months later I walk in and they had all 3( a case found in back I assume).The difference in our stories is the vehicles were put out with clearance stickers.$2.50 each 1x hiss 1x awe striker 1 x night spectre. What has most likly happened is the x-wings went on clearance,and once they were gone they bumped the price back up.target DCPI#'s are shared with many equally priced toys in the same line.There computer reads every dcuc figure the same.I could buy a flash andreturn a big barda with the same reciept.So once they clearance an item to make room for the new ones,the price goes back up in the computer. Or at least this is what I think to be the case.

Not going to happen.
Targets have restocked the X-wing and the clone battle backs that were clearance at full price. I have seen them at many targets past 2 weeks. |

Yeah my Target never did clearance the X-Wing. Instead when all the stores started to clearance it, they took it off the shelves and placed it in back. I kept checking on item # on the scanner for about 3 months and it never went down in price. I just quit checking and they never came back out from the back.

Hmm? I was wanting another one of these but all of the ones at my local Targets disappear when everyone was talking about them being on clearance. I just assumed someone beat me to them when they dropped the price.
