Re: Transformers DOTM holiday 3 packs released at Canadian Retail
I don't remember the price, but I'm sure its been posted in sightings threads, and I do recall it dropping quite a bit toward the end.
Also from what I remember from my time served in retail, Crappy Tire gets hosed quite a lot on stuff like this when it doesn't sell before the summer changeovers because being a section of the seasonal department that's only there for a couple of months, its not even merchandise that they have around for the rest of the year to shelfwarm. Plus, since the section itself is so well, seasonal haha, bringing last year's crap out doesn't do much.
Like, I remember hunting around for fittings & shit all the time and having to crawl through sleds in the warehouse to get there in the winter, but for toys like this, much of it ends up being loss leaders for the sake of flyer & department presence, but that's largely how the stores make their money. That's why we had such a huge emphasis on not fucking up on the weekend rushes (namely with big ticket flyer items), and why nobody gave a shit about random Nascar crap that went on clearance haha.
