That sucks, you can return it if the picture from the seller didn't look like what you received. You'd have to go through eBay if the seller doesn't want to except a return.

Hold up hold up hold....
They are controlling what you can purchase inside their stores?
I live too close to the hood for them to try that crap around here.

From what I read and saw on the new certain Targets and Walmart’s are only letting customers buy groceries and other essentials (paper goods, pet supplies, diapers) and everything else is blocked off.

I cannot fathom the logic in this. Who decides what a 'non-'essential' item is? I don't have kids but say I did and I needed to buy games or books to keep them entertained during this lockdown - would i be refused? Pretty ridiculous.
Nice buy btw - our rights are already curtailed enough without telling us what we can buy as well.

It may also be a manpower issue. In some metro areas, there are employees out sick or older employees taking a leave of absence. They're working as hard as possible to make sure that the things people need to survive are stocked, and there may not be enough staff to maintain other sections.
They're just toys, folks.

I was just at both Walmart & Target and they weren't blocked off. They were, however, wiped of WWE stock at Walmart, there was 1 B105 John Cena, and at Target different AJ Styles figures be it Top Picks Elite & Basics, and also the regular basic series AJ's and Matt Hardy WM36's.
Heading out for while this afternoon, hopefully the other places on the way will not be closed off, and maybe I can find that 75 Hurricane variant.

Toy sales are skyrocketing right now.
From my experience alone, we're purchasing a lot of Lego, art supplies and puzzles for our kids

I mean...a pandemic is a pretty good reason to block off part of the store. I manage a pharmacy and we closed our front end...
You guys will survive without fig hunting. Take a deep breath and re-prioritize.

Man I feel bad for those employees. Someones gonna get shot around here. NOT ENDORSING THAT, just saying. They are blocking off the toys and stuff like that because some states are making them do it. People like to go to WalMart and just chill. The area is blocked off, so you can't walk through.

Man I feel bad for those employees. Someones gonna get shot around here. NOT ENDORSING THAT, just saying. I can honestly see that happening if someone tried that around me. Hell, people rebelled so dang hard when Gov. Wolf deemed alcohol as non-essential, that he was forced to reopen beer distributors and liquor stores. (The liquor stores are online only though.) There was talk about fishing being deemed non-essential, and people lost their ish, so they not only made it an essential activity, they started trout season two weeks early. People in rural PA are not the type to tell what you can and can't do. I'm fairly certain if they tried to tell Bobby Joe out in Clymer that he can't buy a new toolbox for his truck right now, there'd be a murder occurring. Not remotely endorsing that, but I know how people around here are.

Hold up hold up hold.... They are controlling what you can purchase inside their stores? I live too close to the hood for them to try that crap around here. Here in Puerto Rico they where selling everything the first day on quarentine but, then they cut it off because people started going to walmart to just chill since the rest of the stores were close off and still are. Right now Friday, Saturday and Sunday, walmart is closed, supermarkets, everything else to. You can only get gas and med if its and emergency. The only good thing is that the virus is not spreading fast because of quarentine. Still my walmart is without figures since like january or mid february i think. I will keep the figure since i will open it, but i posted on the comments and review that it was all damage.

What can you say, it really sucks like everything else right now...whatever they do with blocking off,I'm actually barely in the state of mind right now to figure hunt anyhow... I went in just to still keep tabs on my Spin Master Batman figures at Target but of course, nothing feels right and my head is just spinning with all this going on. And I work at a grocery store to add to it all.😴 lol

My Walmart is blocked off as well. A friend of mine who works there told me.

I work as a paint merchandiser for a hardware store and is crazy not working and being all at home.
