At least Sheamus was replaced with an elite.

At least Sheamus was replaced with an elite. Thats not even remotely a positive note on a terrible situation. If you saw that in store are you telling me you'd be "ok" with a switch like that saying that at least it was switched with another elite?!?!?! |

WTF...This must have been just one a-hole doing this, right? I wonder if he or she was audacious enough to return them all at once or what? This is so stupid. I would have been furious if I was you because I still have not even found Elite 13 once where I am.

Well, I think they should stop accepting returns on figures. Or start keeping a visual log book so they can tell when being duped.

Wow. This isn't a suprise to me. I remember there was an elite series in Kmart in where all were replaced with Jakks basics. I recalled a Finlay, Kane, Kingston, Big Show and Morrison basic figures. I don't know what upsets me more replacing elites with basic or stealing the title belts from the package. Sometimes they replace the original with a crappy Jakks belt. I seen a ton of elite Drew, Miz or w/ Jakks I-C belts, or elite/best of 11' Sheamus with no belts.

See, here is the thing. You guys are posting this literally everyday and more and more collectors get on and its so easy to see these types of articles and how easy everyone else is getting away with this and with the ppl complaining about prices all the time. Why not? The more ppl they see getting away with this everyday, the more ppl are going to do it. Its only getting worse cause were making it worse. Posting these are like telling ppl hey guys look how many ppl are getting away with this, you gotta go try it now. SO they do.

I can honestly say I've never seen a switcheroo in town here. I've come across a lot of figs just after they had been put out though, and I almost always order the figs I REALLY want online.

I've never personally seen switches of figures in my local stores but how do these switcharoos occur to begin with? Is it something along the manufacturers side or just returns from customers etc and to be honest, as long as the figures in the switcharoos are people that I would look forward to, I wouldn't mind seeing them every once in a while. But I could see how this is a problem that needs to be resolved soon.

Maybe it's a sign for mattel to lower their damn prices and change the packaging already.
