There are a few MEGOs that are half price.
Like Greg, Alice & Marcia. And the Charmed sisters. Check it out.
What !!
Is this a ruse ?
I paid $15.99 plus tax for all these figures mentioned above and now 1/2 price.
Not happy at all.

I'm in a groove and on the move collecting Mego POTA figures. PM me anytime.
No surprise there, since my local 2 Targets have bunches of peg warmers of the females.
Hey I bought some not because of the characters just for custom fodder if you parted each figure out that's about $15-20 each figure in parts alone so it's a win win

I hear ya on that, I would like to do a Lt. Janice Rand, maybe Angels Kris? but no idea on how to
redo her hair style.
Strolled into Target by me and they have the Bewitchded set now up for $29.99 an a 10% off sign on all figures.
Wave 1 is still at $12.99 and plenty of supply. Breaks my Corny heart.
Asked the Target dude who happened to be in the same aisle about....what if these aren't selling in January?
He said could be a super clearance price of $7.99 next, but couldn't confirm.
Also asked if this Target would be getting in any Wave 2 - 3 soon. And he said , and I quote......highly unlikely if this " stuff " don't sell bro.
So I bought some popcorn on the way out and started singing christmas music.

I hear some complain that a sale happened after you bought -or the sale wasn't long enough.
That is the way retail works.
Price for maximum profit. There is a high demand (you bought it) -it was priced right. $15.99
Some people freak out when they can't find it retail, buy it secondary market. $30 plus shipping.
If they don't sell ,lower the price. If the demand is there at that price (you bought it) it was priced right. $12.99
freak out when they can't find it retail, buy it secondary market. $30 plus shipping.
If sales slow down, put it on sale. priced right at $6.99
They move enough product during the sale - the sale ends. priced right at $12.99
They decide they have sold as many as can - they have a close out sale or sell inventory to secondary seller. ?? $3.99 ??
Waited until stores, hoarders and speculators realized they couldn't unload them - BONUS: Every figure is available.....~ $2
After that you can hold it for 20 years MIP and you can sell it for $0-$30
How much did you pay? That depends on how bad you wanted it and how long you were willing to wait.
THE PRICE YOU PAID IS NOT TARGET'S FAULT.
Every product at every store goes through this process.
I bought Dracula when found him at $15.99 a month after he came out. That was a good purchase.
I bought Wolfman at $12.99 The week he came out. That was a good purchase.
I want Frankenstein and haven't seen him at my local target. I will wait. If I find it at retail or lower, I'll buy it.
I have seen figures I didn't want at $6.49 - I dd not buy them.
I am not really sure why people even complain about this. Even at 16 plus tax it is way cheaper than one FTC plus shipping (and sales tax if you live in FLA).

The Target that I checked today had yellow clearance stickers on all the Tootie figures
for nine dollars and change .The other figures still scan 12.99. I will check back I'm sure
Action Jackson is next because they had over 12 . The clearance price should drop even
more because no one is buying poor Tootie at this Target.14'' Flash is still reg price and they
had 4 but no Batman
