That's the regular price for a basic figure at Walmart. Lol

The sale is good if you're buying the BOPPV Basics, which cost $14.99 nowadays, but it's a shame that 2 for $19.99 could be considered a good deal when I can buy 2 basic figures at Target, Walmart and Kmart for about the same price. I don't understand why TRU are raising their prices, do they get more profit from it?

Yeah.. Gotta love the "best price" tags at TRU, when only one set goes down to what it should be compared to Walmart..
Haven't found better pricing for basics than at target (8.99)
And pricing of elites at target/Walmart (16.99-17.99)
Kmart is also 17.99 although I found a deal once on all their elites at only 11.99 each. That's when I snagged all my e17 figs including mankind

My guess is that there are a lot more Walmarts and Targets who buy in a bigger bulk (for less), than there are TRU's. This allows Walmart and Target to sell em for less. |

TRU is always higher without a "sale"! They are that specialty shop.... The original scalpers!! If mom and dad can't find it at the regular stores, TRU will have it... For a slightly higher price!!
Just playin, haha!! I like TRU. This weeks deal isn't too bad. Plus, I had a $10 off coupon! I used this sale to pick up the MitB play set and BoPPV Sheamus. Only paid $2.50 for him!
But, it would have been nice I'd they'd had the sale on all WWE toys. I would have picked up E20 CM Punk and E20 Cena (for the accessories). I Want to keep an E20 CM Punk MOC. Anyone else think of it as a very historic figure??
I mean, Punk with the WWE Championship... He's the last wrestler to hold that belt in real life... What if it's like that in MWE??
Anyone got a collection of MOC set of Elite WWE Champions?? I would love to see a display!!

My guess is that there are a lot more Walmarts and Targets who buy in a bigger bulk (for less), than there are TRU's. This allows Walmart and Target to sell em for less. I could see this being true for Walmart, but I'm not so sure about Target. The closest Target where I live doesn't really carry the Elite line anymore and I have heard of others in this board complaining about Target not carrying Elites. You also have to consider the fact that Toys R Us is not only raising the price of Basics and Battle Packs(which are now $23.99!!!), they're raising prices on TRU exclusive figures like the BOPPV Elites and Basics in some areas. I don't know what the financial situation of TRU is that is causing some of the prices to rise, but it just doesn't make much sense to me to raise the prices of these figures when you could get them elsewhere for less. |

I work for TRU, they want you to believe they are struggling financially, so thats why prices rise. In all honesty, the reason BOPPV are so high is because no one else has them. Also, greedy corporate bungholes. doesnt go much farther than that.
