The store can charge what price they want they aren't making you buy the figures. You can try to justify doing this but it is still lying and however you want to look at it it is stealing. What comes around goes around. Congrats on your findings though.

What comes around goes around. Congrats on your findings though. Exactly. If people don't have the money to buy to item for the price the store originally has listed then they should find a cheaper place not lower themselves to stealing from a store..

How dare Ryback or any of you defend this man who apparently buys in my territory...go figure!
Not only is he stealing from the stores, he is taking money and merchandise royalties from the boys and WWE wrestlers/workers.
Target and Everett PD WILL BE INVESTIGATING!!!

Why don't you all get off his ass about getting the figures for cheap? I was at the EXACT same Target before him yesterday and got the last Jericho and PTP. I ripped the 12.50 tag off of the shelf and brought it up front because I saw they were charging 19.99 for figs when all the other Targets are cheaper (and the sale is supposed to bes 10.50) so when I got up to the register I argued with this young forigen lady for about 15 minutes and she refused to give me the figures for that price. So I ended up paying 42 fn bucks for the elite and bp. ..Because I pay full-price and y'all lie to people's faces to get a discount. Is that really difficult to understand?

ROFL @ Everett PD will be investagating. My grandfather was the chief of police at that very department. I know those guys and I know they'd laugh in your face if you reported this..
And guys he isn't stealing from mattel in any way shape or form. The only ones losing out on what? 15/20 bucks is that Target store itself. And the only reason they lost out was because one of their employees was dumb enough to mark down the prices. Almost always if you request a price change and a manager is near by, he will do it for you without thinking twice. Mattel already made their money, hell even if people steal an item straight out of a box it dosent affect mattel it only effects the store with the bad employees who let it happen. I'm not defending stealing or lying in any sence. But I mean like I said earlier. I tried the same thing. At the same store. In the same day. And I didn't get the deal. So its not like the entire store is full of dumbasses. Thrashard was lucky enough to find a dumbass and the only one who should be getting any heat is the employee who marked it down. Know what, infact, no one whould be getting heat over this as no one did anything wrong.
The store had the sale tags all over every single peg. Elites, BPs, everything. Now they didn't have any basics either meaning they have a bunch of saletags up for an item not even in stock. But anyway don't put sale tags over items which aren't on sale unless you want someone making a big deal out of it. Which almost always happens trust me I worked at Kmart for 2 years and every day a customer would come up demanding a price adjustment because a sale tag was in an incorrect place or the tag was still up after being expired. And know what, everytime my manager came over they would do the price adjustment without thinking, then send me to take the tags down/ put them in the correct place. Its the employees fault. Not the customers.

The bottom line is if the employee trusts you to be an honest human being and you knowingly quote them a lowball price, then you are in the wrong.

Heres the difference he fraudentially misled the worker knowing what the real price should be. If the item had the wrong tag that would be different. It's not an employees sole fault. I am sure even at target they are under pressure to get the customer out the door. Again it isn't mattel's loss it is the principle of the matter. Seems pretty black and white to me. I work retail and see this on a regular basis. Hold yourself to a higher standard and don't lie to get what you want

You're going to lie about the price of a toy and then brag about it? get a life. Nobody is forcing your hand at buying the figures.

Elite pegs had the 12.50 sticker right on them. So he did what I did and said that they were marked at 12.50 and lucky for him they changed it. They should change the price anytime there's sale tags where they shouldn't be as that is the stores fault and no one elses.

This man is almost for sure lying about the price tags being labeled. I went to a target and saw they had wwe toys on sale, but the elites where one of the items not, i repeat not on sale. I tried scanning an elite 19 brock lesnar they had just to be sure. The item did not scan on the in store price scanner. I went to a female target worker right near by and ask them to scan the elite 19 brock, she said the price is 16.99. So that is the price that should have rang up, but because these items are brand new and others have mentioned target have the very same issues they where not on file. My local target is not this one in question i should note.
This guy conned a target cashier into getting a better price and that is stealing. I went to target after already buying an elite 19 brock at my local toysrus. I was hoping myself i could save a few bucks and getting a cheaper price at target with no luck. Someone should call the police on this guy for theft. Also why is this thread not deleted and this guy not banned ? I already reported this thread, so why is it still here ??

Employees do put wrong tags on shelves at the individual store. I was at a Target once during a sale on basics for (I think) $6.99. But, the tags were everywhere (I would have gotten an elite if they had one). So, they should give you the price that is on the tag because they made a mistake. They don't have to, but they should.

Maybe you could be the ultimate jackass and switch the figures, take them back and get a refund. That would definitely be the 'greatest' coup/robbery. LOL. Nice finds but you gotta do what you gotta do I guess. How come I never got presents for Easter? All I had were lousy egg hunts.

My store specifically did not have tags on elites. But even if the store did have tags covering elites, it should not say elites on the sale tags, because they were not on sale. I repeat elites were not on sale.
I honestly feel bad for that cashier, because that person might really get into trouble for what that person did and it was not her fault. But this guy is an awful human being and he does not care, as the title says. I worked in retail on 2 different occasions so i know what its like.

I repeat elites were not on sale. No, but most people don't stop to read what the writing on the tag says. They see the tag and the gigantic price, grab a figure, and go check out. The employees should still keep them in the right place. If the tags were on the Elite peg, then I completely agree with what he did.

Again the items were not on the shelf and i am guessing on not on file which is targets fault. But this guy took advantage and somewhere down the line that cashier might pay the price. I will say again this guy is an awful human being and people who think this is ok are just as awful.

Are you trolling powerfred? Because if not then you seriously should just leave the boards. How dare you accuse him of theft and report him. How come back when people were finding B25 and 26 brand new on clearance for 2 bucks a pop no one bitched those poeple out. Its the same exact thing. He did nothing wrong and anyone who continues to harrass the man should be the ones who are banned and deleted.
And yes, I know because I was there just a couple hours before him, that the sale tags WERE indeed on the elite pegs.. it is the stores fault. As a matter of fact. I'm going back to this store with my reciept and I'm going to show them thrashards recipt and demand that I get my money back. Go ahead try and stop me.

The employees should still keep them in the right place. If the tags were on the Elite peg, then I completely agree with what he did. The problem w/ this logic is simple. He did not get them off the peg. He got them out of the box. He opened a fresh case. He said so in the original thread. Then he said he played stupid. He knew it was the wrong price. It wasn't a mistake by the store or the employees. It was a willful act of deceit by a customer. It's just toys, but still. My initial problem w/ this was the fact that he did it in this manner to get an EASTER present for his kid. Easter of all things. Committing, what amounts to, an act of theft to get a present for a religious holiday is just plain wrong. If it weren't for that fact, I probably wouldn't find it as objectionable as I do.
