Wow, if there was a sign of how screwed up things are, the past 2 weeks, at two different Targets, I've seen 3 different elite 53 Alexa Bliss' on the pegs. Seen the same thing around me but with Sami zayn and big e mixed in as well. Target is now pushing out figures from a year ago that I guess they just found in warehouses. Odd thing is they are not full cases. Only 4 or 5 random figures from elite 53 in each store.

I’ve been seeing a ridiculously high number of swaps in the southington/Meriden area.
Worst one was the torso of a 90s tmnt figure in place of a Thanos BAF torso. I contacted Walmart through the website and the local store I complained about actually called me to apologize for any inconvenience. Insane
At least 6 Marvel legends figures had swapped parts. Usually, I’m one for not wanting to complain about something like this...but that pissed me off real good when I found the figure I needed and the part was swapped.
Been seeing more and more belts yanked and basics crammed into elites. Obviously has to be the same guy

Its probably the same person as I usually dont see this in the new haven area stores. Seems localized to meriden. Mostly belts are missing or figures returned with other accessories gone.

The amount on shelves right now is too damn high

There's a thief/swapper in the Stratford Walmart too. Drives me absolutely crazy. Really wish I'd catch this jerkoff in the act.

The KOmaniaIII Owens Chase are 1 per case like the Wolfe. Either someone opened 3+ cases and picked those out to put up, or it was a manufacturer mistake. Idk how big or popular that store is, but from what I know most stores will get either 1 case of Elites, or occasionally they will get 2, usually around the holidays or sometimes for bigger orders that come in such as the Wrestlemania Elite Series. Either way that's really, really weird.

That's a possibility, but I know they aren't available to buy on Target.com. so if they were returns then they must have come from someone who searched quite a bit for them from other Targets. Dk why they would return them. Could get a lot more than $20 selling them online. I heard there was a Red Rooster at one of the Targets around here a couple weeks ago. That was definitely a return. Wish I came across that one.

Wish I came across that one. Interesting to find a rooster in the store. Definitely a return probably ly someone wanted him MOC and it was damaged or had that giant UPC code sticker on the box. The chase figures really seem to have very little value on the secondary market. Nearly all of them you can get for $20 - $25. With that after you figure shipping and the fees u might be getting the figure for less than retail.

Most are priced on ebay for $30-40 except for a select few that are more like the E67 Jeff Hardy Chase. But you're right about shipping. They charge so much to ship now that you'll end up losing almost half your money.

Has anyone found anything new in like the past 2 months? Target and walmart are all nothing but top picks, old battle packs, older basics, and elites ranging from series 53 to 66. Been that way for at least a month and a half now.

Nothing. My local Walmart as literally nothing for the last 2 weeks almost now. Just a few of the rings, and a Cruiserweight belt. Every time I walk down the aisle they're in and see empty pegs, I get pissed off. The only new thing in probably the past month, was one of my Targets got a case of Elite 66, with AJ, Kurt and Nikki left, with the packaging on all beaten to hell.

Milford Target had E66 for a week or so about a month ago. Other than that, same old shelf warmers as always.

This is CRAZY there is LITERALLY nothing at Walmart in Milford or Stratford, Target in Milford has random Elite 53s and NXT Rusevs. Target in Trumbull mall has a few Elite 64, Target Trumbull Hawley lane has NOTHING. It's been like this for 6-8 weeks, is this common place in other areas of the state???
