Anybody do this? Today, I was putting something in the letter box, it was right beside my local Toymaster so I doddled in to find DA8 Helms, Morrison and Sandman. I pull back Helms to reveal... PUNK! Now I didn't have any money so I puck it up, and put it in the Spiderman section. There were also MITB and HITC, that was it.  So my question is, did you hide any figures? |

Yes. When there used to be a TRU by my house, I found the perfect hiding space. When I mean perfect, I mean I kept some figs there for months. It was upstairs sandwiched between the back of a shelf and a window.

I used to hide them. I found that the best hiding spot was inside the WCW wrestling buddy boxes because nobody ever bought them. I had figures in them forever. The Jarrett I hid was there for over 2 years.

You're damn right I hide figs. I don't think it's unfair. You found it first, and you could have "accidentally" mis placed it somewhere. And then after that you could have "accidentally" found it again. Lucky you.

Yeah i always hide them. The day after Benoit died i chucked all of the Benoit figures up on the top shelfe behind some board games  turns out there not worth anything after buying them all...  I also once hid a Hardy/ Nitro pack behind some hot wheels stuff but it went by time i went back :-\ |

I've never really done this, to be honest.
I would often put the figure at the back of the rack of WWE figures, so it would be tougher to see from just looking, but i never actually moved it to a different part of the store.
I think its a smart idea, but I'm just much too straightforward to be messing about like that.
