I just looked up if a figure from E17 was at my local target by looking for stores near me and it says in stock? How accurate is this?

My understanding is that if there is an elite of any series on the shelves, every elite on the site will say in stock.

If they're not on the shelf, pull the price tag off the peg and scan it on the price scanner, and it will tell you if they're in the stockroom or not. Because I know the employees lie most of the time because they don't wanna go back and look for them.

So just because it says something is in stock on the site doesn't mean it's actually there?

Yeah, you have to scan the tag thing that they clip onto the metal peg that the figures hang on. And on the price scanner, about 3 lines down, "Stockroom:" and then "Yes" or "No" depending on what the answer is. |

Target aka Satan's a**hole I thought TRU was Satan's anus, especially after raising basics to $13.49, elites to $17.99 and battle packs to $23.99! On topic, target website is really only good for checking daily and seeing if a nearby store goes from "out of stock" or "limited stock" to "in stock"... If one near you does, hop in the car and go get them fresh pickins! |

Speaking of Target, one of my Targets lowered Elites to $15.39. Not as good as some places that sell them for $12.99 but it's nice to see prices go down.

this is why i hate target. the employees do not want to look for figures . they dont want to talk to you on the phone i always get hung up on and when it says that there in the back they say there is not and wont get them.

It's accurate in telling u if it has elites in stock but not specific figures.

At least my store doesnt. |

You don't have to scan the tag to see in there's back room stock, scanning a figure UPC works too.

I went in to my Target the other day, and they had ALL of the World Champions set. ONLY time I've ever seen them freshly stocked. Unfortunately, I had everybody I wanted already. BUT, I almost was gonna do a price match. They still had the sale sticker for the $8.99 basics, but it was expired. I prolly could've contested it, but meh. My Target never has any elites.
