Unfortunately it looks like they aren't going to be listing the full inventory number anymore. If there are 6 or more it will say "6+". If there are less than 6 it will say "limited stock". Obviously it will say out of stock if there are none. This really sucks because the only way that you will ever be able to tell if there is a new case in is if the stock happens to fall below 6 and then jump back over six, otherwise it is pretty much useless.

Looks like people used and abused brickseek for finding figures at walmart.
I kept saying don't mention them in store or they will disable it, and now it looks like they did.

That's a very valid point and I'm with you 100%. But sometimes you get that little fire started in you when you know a store employee is BSing you and you want to let them know they are lying and maybe help you after you call them out on the BS line of "oh all we have is what's in the aisle".

It sucks when walmart or target employees won't help you. But you move on an try again the next day or even just wait a few hours and call the store.

Where's those snitches that deserve dem stitches? all the stupid ass YouTube collectors that cry about not finding the exclusives and new series at stores first in their videos. then others that turn around and show people how to use brickseek in the next video they put out

Well possibly good news, there is now a pop up on the site saying that they are aware if it and that is how they are receiving the inventory from Walmart and that they are hoping to get full inventories again soon. So that's something ...

retailers are sick of collectors calling stores 24 hours a day asking to hold items, or if they have _____ in stock for $3 because they saw it on brickseek
and then how many people go in to stores BITCHING and complaining about store employees or lack of stock because they saw it on brickseek
the entire process is just a catalyst for complaints and arguments. i wouldnt be shocked if Walmart and Target were sick of this crapand are going to change the way they manage inventory so they dont have to deal with people who are trying to flip stuff on ebay

Anyone also having issues with PopFindr now, too? It's redesigned and not working for me now.

Listen. We're not Hot Wheels guys, so we haven't hit bottom yet.

We've clearly met different collectors of both persuasions. Some of the WWE collectors out this way surpassed rock bottom ages ago. We're talking somewhere between the mantle and the core.

Hah! I've probably been lucky, having met mostly pretty decent wrestling figure dudes. But I think it's universal that the Hot Wheels guys are the bottom rung. They are the furries of the toy collecting world. They're like when you'd go to hobby shops back in the day for gaming stuff and there would always be that one awkward creep there who's really into model trains.
I mean, we're bad, no doubt about that. We're NXT fans, AEW fans. But Hot Wheels guys are ECW Mutants.
