What a crazy story man, glad to hear you ended up with the figure in the end. The fact that the manager asked if you were going to sell the figure online is completely ridiculous. It doesn't matter what you're doing with it, to ask you that is pretty unprofessional. Like others have said, you handled the situation a LOT better than I would have.

Ok heres an update. I figured I would go up there again tonight and lie my ass off. I took my daughter and went to customer service. The woman there just got in. I told her they were holding a figure for me. She looked and couldnt find it. Wouldnt you know it right behind me on line was the manager who asked if I wad selling it on ebay. He was.off duty and was shopping himself. He told the woman it was in a locked drawer. He asked if someone called me and told me to come up for the figure. I said YUP I got a call a little while ago. The woman got the drawer unlocked and handed me the figure. I walked around the store for a little while then went by the blu rays. I picked up a movie for myself and one for my wife then as someone suggested on here earlier I went to electronics to pay. Sure as Chocolate Shark the Kaitlyn didnt scan. The guy asked me how much it was. I told him $12.99 he rang her up for $10.99 and my daughter and I walked out the store. Crazy to get your hands on one figure but it all worked out in the end. Thanks everybody for the responses and feedback. Thank god. I'm so glad you lied to them. What a bunch of in losers man.

Thankfully, your situation was resolved. Reading how you were unable to buy Kaitlyn because she couldn't have been scanned and the fact that the manager asked you if you were gonna sell it on eBay was ridiculous. However, it's awesome to hear that you finally got Kaitlyn for your daughter and that she is happy with it.

As someone who works at Target this has to be the most backwoods Target in the country. 99.99999999999999% of the time you get a price error they will ask you for the price you saw and take your word for it or just have someone check the shelf.

I would have slammed a ten on the counter and took off.

Awesome ending to the story. It's just too bad that this situation had to turn you into a lier to get the outcome needed. It is nice to know that the figure stayed in the store and the manager didn't just buy it himself. That makes me think that he was at least attempting to solve the problem through protocol.

Thanks. This little girl made it all worth while. That's great to hear that everything worked out for you. Had that happen at target with the basic 24 otunga and they just put a basic upc in. Seeing the smile with the figure makes my day so much better. I remember the smile my girlfriends kid had on when I gave her the bella twins. You don't appreciate getting a new figure untill you give to a child who wants it.

The issue here is that Target for one they are all listed under the same stock number so there shouldn't have been an issue and frankly it's not any of their business what you do with it. The Target I work in would not have treared you kike yhat and would have gone out of thier way to take care of you. Really just irritates me that customer service has gotten so bad in a lot of retail stores.

I just posted this in the mass thread, but I had the same problem with her today at Target: The set was 12.99 each. I actually scanned her in the aisle and it came up with an "item not registered" message, the other ones scanned normal. I guess it really does have a different barcode than the rest? I was on a lunch break and didn't have all day to fart around so I just did the easiest thing and brought a Brock up to the register with me so she could scan that and she just did it with no questions and that was it. Shawn was 19.99 which was a jip, but whatever, hes old in Elite years at this point so it was still worth it. Target's are so random, some of them Elites are 19.99 at others I see them as low as 15.99.

I work an hour and a half away from my house so I stopped in two different Targets out by my job between yesterday and today. I found Kaitlyn at both and when I scanned her in the aisle she came up as item not found. I bought both. Im going to keep one for myself and put one on my classifieds. At the Target yesterday.the guy at the register just asked me how much she was and rung it up for what I told him. The one this morning they asked me how much I said I wasnt sure because honestly out of four Targets Ive been to in the last week, they all had different prices. She called the front end manager and he just put in $7.99 which was awesome. I dont know why the one by my house was such a hassle but I went feom not being able to buy Kaitlyn at all to having too many. Lol. I got the first for my daughter the second for myself and the third for my classifieds. Turned out to be a good week after all.
