For real. It even says on the package that stuff may differ from what's pictured. Swaps don't take time and effort. None of these people are idiots. They do their job, which is ask if there's anything wrong with it, scan it, and give you money back. It's not their job to google if it's the right figure. I've returned a lot of stuff in my time (no swaps though) and its painless and not some crazy inconvenience like some of you act like it is. Y'all just mad cause the swappers got what you don't. I've spotted a switcheroo bandit. Defensive, and poor ghetto grammar. I'm not defensive since nobody accused me of anything. You should feel like a bad person for the "poor ghetto grammar" remark. That's pretty racist. Shame on you.

The fact that mattel refuses to do anything to fix this shows how little they care about their customers.

If you don't have $10 for a basic fig that you want, your priorities aren't in order. Small example of the trash in this world. You must have misspoke. My priorities ARE in order BECAUSE I don't spend the $10 or $20 I don't have on a new figure that I want. But.. my bills are paid, family is fed, and I have no debt outside of a few medical bills. But yeah... I would never do the switchout thing.. but I also don't think that "my priorities aren't in order because I don't have extra money for action figures sometimes".

That's pretty racist. Shame on you. You did write a long paragraph explaining why a switcheroo isn't such a hassle. I say: "if it talks like a duck, walks like a duck, then by golly it's a duck". Oh, and about the grammar, read your last sentence which starts with: "Y'all"

Welcome to the south, dick. Also, it's a contraction of "you" and "all." Consider yourself smote.

People need to lay off the employees when this happens.
Odds are they don't follow wrestling or especially collecting at all, so in cases where similar looking or basic-style or even Jakks figures are used, they aren't going to realise.
And in cases where you have black figures used for white guys or other extreme switches, it's probably a case of them just following procedure, even if they know something is amiss.
This is more to do with the management side of things than the assistants.

And in cases where you have black figures used for white guys or other extreme switches, it's probably a case of them just following procedure, even if they know something is amiss. This is more to do with the management side of things than the assistants. This is why I went to work for small business. I got tired of all the ass kissing corporate did to scumbag garbage that cost us hundreds of dollars at our store every year. I worked for a national drug store for about 2 and a half years. I knew this price-matching prescriptions from club pharmacies like Costco, and constantly giving gift cards so people wouldn't leave, only to have them leave, transfer back and get another giftcard for transferring back was throwing good money after bad. And the 'never question the customer' crap bugged me. I had a dip#### bring a package of pills to be rang up. It was one that was a bottle packaged inside of a box. Not hard at all to tell that it was sealed and had a bottle that weighed at least a few ounces in it. They brought it back, torn open, less than 30 seconds later, and said the box was empty. I called my manager, who allowed them to get another. I told the manager that they were full of crap, that I'm not stupid. His response? "Better to let them have a 6 dollar box of medicine than them call corporate and get a $50 dollar gift card in the mail." I doubt this chain will make it, they were already in pretty hefty financial trouble when I jumped off. That's a lot of people who will lose their jobs because of a bunch of corporate asshats who don't have the slightest idea how to really run a business. Working small business doesn't generally afford these opportunities, but you have no idea the flooding sense of release you get when you can tell a jackass to stop being one, and the first time I got to tell someone to leave the premises, I felt validated, finally. Garbage that costs us business is not to be kept around draining our business dry.
