So I was out and about over the weekend, and stopped by my local Target. I don't really hunt all that much, just grabbing what I want when I find it. Anyways, I walk into the WWE Aisle and find it rather bare. All they had was Elite 21 Orton and Del Rio and an old Rhodes/Mysterio 2 pack. Really had no need for anything, until I looked behind the Del Rio to find Elite 21 Mysterio.
I don't have an Elite Mysterio, and actually prefer that attire with the top. So naturally, I think to grab it. However, when I grabbed it, first thing I noticed was the bottom had been ripped completely open.
Come to find out that someone had completely opened the figure....but took nothing. Perhaps they got caught in the act? Anyways, despite the figure being in perfect condition, entrance shirt and all, I still got it for $11 bucks because it had been opened.
Has anyone else ever gotten any good deals or price breaks thanks to someone else's mistake or generosity?

I got Elite 10 John Morrison at WM over the winter for $7 because the package looked like it was stampeded by a herd of buffalo. I traded it loose to a member on the board.

Ive never seen a swap first hand, I've never had a problem with people ripping open packages round my area  |

Lucky you, cashiers always basically tell me to go to hell when I try to get a deal.

Has anyone else ever gotten any good deals or price breaks thanks to someone else's mistake or generosity? I got Honky Tonk Man and AJ Lee 25% off because the boxes were damaged. It's not the first time Target in my area had damaged boxes, but it was the first time I wanted something they had damaged. I took them to the service desk and they offer 25% off. I wasn't fighting that. A authentic saving is a big savings!! |

The first swap I saw was at Toy R Us in Tulsa. I don't doubt it was someone on the formu, especially reading the "OK findings" awhile back. I saw 3 figures swapped. DM Austin switched with a Jakks "NWO" back spray painted Austin. BAF Bret Hart switched with RVD, and E15 R-truth with a jakks brown vest and a Mattel bacis R-Truth. I live about 1 and half hours away from Tulsa, but I get the feeling that the local hunters are horrible people. |

I tried to get a discount on E20 Punk at Wal Mart because the package was torn to hell but they said no.
