    I saw this earlier and first thought that they maybe started their new sale before ending their old sale so the two were going on at the same time.

    I wish they had a better selection because as it stands, there are only 5 (by my count) Deluxes that fit that combined sale that are in stock. Add shipping and it's more expensive than their $7.99 sale.

    Also, here is the 'The Brand New Sales, Deals, and Coupons Thread' for things like this.

    i'm aware of the thread but brand new toys going for a 3rd of retail is worth a special mention in my book

    Well it isn't really a third off, is it? Once you factor in shipping, it's not as good a sale as the one they just ended in-store. (Plus the figures that they're offering online are rather plentiful at B&Ms at this point.)

    It was at $16.74 for two Deluxes with shipping, instead of the $22.78 it is now.

    So they meant to go from $7.99 Deluxes, to buy-one-get-one-half-off, and the two accidentally overlapped? Funny. Did anyone manage to get it?

    According to the TRU weekly flyer, the sale is in store as well and according to the picture its Deluxes, FAB and Robot Replicas... basically all the figures that are normally 11.99.
