No kidding. This is unreal. Even worse is that if you ask a manager or something, they know the original price. They're aware of the increase, but can offer no explanation. Bunch of crooks...

The less there are, the more the price will go up I suppose m

TRU on 360/183 had a new case of Generations DLX figures and a case of TF Prime Voyagers. I saw them on the top shelf. The also had Vortex and another combaticon on the peg. Prices on them are up to $15.99 from 14.99 but they supposedly price match.

TRU on 35/parmer had a bunch of GDO powerdives and megatrons.

Looking for any trades? I got some stuff in my sales thread up for grabs

I guess GDO Leaders are out in Canada and there's a Starscream too? I'm in Kitchener, Canada and hit a TRU here. They had those two so that was a nice surprise. No FE Voyagers though

ugh, the leaders, they cost over $45 though with the exchange rate

Base prices aren't determined by anyone in the store. I think any kind of markups above base price in a particular location(like Bunker Hill) are automatic and based on volume of the store.

Even when I help customers, if it comes up, I'll bring up how expensive things are/can be. There's this one flimsy looking Batpod thing that rings up for $32. Which is crazy. It looks like it's worth $20 tops.
