One more problem I've noticed in my area. Found elite 69 no rocks still on the east coast. Bought the whole case at $7 each but no # change on brickseek after a whole day they still show all of them in stock Been talking about this for like three days. The reason it’s ringing up $7 is because it’s linked to the old SKU in the system. So that’s why the quantity on Brickseek isn’t changing.

RSC has a lot of nerve selling The Rock Exclusive for $65. As much as I enjoy ordering from them, that's full-fledged scalping and taking full advantage of the less fortunate who cant find them in stores. Ebay is one thing, but RSC? I am really disgusted with them right now. If I can find some when they arrive here I am going to buy as many as i can and sell them on here for retail, period. They got it in the store for $22 give or take a dollar and it's a business. If you don't like the price, don't buy it.

It's crap like this that pushes collectors out the door. If it has a value of $60+ then fine, but charging 4x the price is insane. One site marking up a figure does not push collectors out the door. Chill with all your doom and gloom. They mark figures below retail all the time, and above for preorders. It’s how they have done it for over 20 years. They know what they are doing.

It’s not the huge deal you are making it out to be.

It’s how they have done it for over 20 years. They know what they are doing. Why you always trying to insult people's opinions? I've never seen you comment like that on anything until someone else already has. Want to discuss it or even debate? No problem. But whats with you and always insulting? Seems to me that most people on here are 100% against scalping, and I agree. I've searched high and low for figures before and came up empty almost every time. As do a lot of people on here. If you really believe that charging 4x what a figure is worth before it even hits most stores is okay then thats just too bad. It’s not everyone’s opinions. I get along with most on here. There are a few that just are so negative about the line all the time. You, and a few others, and I am debating. I’m saying it’s not that big of a deal. I hate scalpers but the solution is don’t like it...don’t buy it. Not bitch about it 24/7. If the figures sell at that price people will continue to do it. If they don’t, they won’t. That’s the solution and for the record I had two people private message me yesterday thanking me for calling you out on your crap. For some reason people are afraid to call people out when they are being overly negative. People like me, triple sss and a few others aren’t. That’s just how it is. In a lot of ways wrestling figure collectors are a lot like wrestling fans, always bitching, never satisfied.

Barely been on here in the past 3 weeks. Also, you haven't commented on a single thing I've said since March. But if you say so. Cmon man you comment all the time and are always negative. Please! You and I got into it in the sdcc thread cause you were just complaining and complaining. It is what it is. You do your thing but be prepared for someone to call you out. It’s the internet.

And here we go one thread got locked already because of them having Rock on their site for $65 and people complaining about it...so you decide to bring it into another thread to get this one locked also? That makes perfect sense. So, are the Patterson/Mabel cases ringing up at a discount? Nope like skyllzzz27 said it’s just E69 minus Rock. For some reason they are in the system under the new sku, but they are ringing up under the old discontinued SKU.

What the bad part about all this is that when Target finally gets Elite 69 in its going to clog the shelves. Walmart get that series sooner, and because of the pricing error everyone's in a buy from them. Target going to be flooded wiyh this series assuming it gets it so I can get Liv and Sonya.

I hope target gets flooded because I've only found miz and rey so far from e69. Last 2 I was looking for so I'm good if target gets these in bunches. i think they are going to move no matter what. It's a very good set.

I'm hoping that Target's 2 case assortments, the second being a revision case with 2 Liv's and 2 Sonya. Could help move figures at Target.

Does anyone know how figure distribution works?
Like, is it common for all the stores in the same area to get the same sets of figures around the same time?
