20% off action figures at TRU

[FruitBuyer]

Yeah, I really don't see what they're trying to do with that Barricade pricing. Don't you want to try and get rid of as much of your stock as possible?

[Thurmus]

No. They first want to get as much money as possible then get rid of stock.

It's not wrong that they make at least some effort towards their creditors. At the end of the day it's not TRU that's gonna take a bath on the loss of funds since they've filed for bankruptcy.

I see, that makes sense.

Just saw a TV commercial for the close down sale, think they had an Optimus Prime as one of the toys but was watching out of the corner of my eye.

Was wondering... at what % off would you open your wallet/purse? 30%, 40%, 50% or more.

it isn't about discount % for me at the moment, they just don't have anything i really want!

Once they get to the 25-30% mark I will go in for a look but only purchase if they have specific figures we want/need.

I did go in to the Castle Hill one for a look the other day when it was only 15-20% off Transformers and quite a few people were picking them up as gifts to put away for their kids so will be interesting to see what is left if it gets to the point I am tempted to go in and seriously look.

I don't have a TRU near me, so I'll only be going back if I pass one on the ay to somewhere else.

I saw the SS Thundercracker weekend before last and in person it looks stunning. I had no intention of getting it. I think if it gets down to about $40 I might grab it, if I am at a TRU and there are any left.

Otherwise, most of their other stock, I either already have or have pre-ordered from somewhere else if I'm interested in it.

20% makes them comparable to normalish prices at other stores.
So you need to need something unique to justify it. Get under 30% and things get interesting and it is a race between price drops and empty shelves.
