    EB Games will refund your deposit if you make it an issue. However, they only price match on games, not "loot". They consider toys and collectibles to be part of their loot product category.
    I have a list of all G1 characters that have been released in CHUG form. You can find it here. Please feel free to let me know if I got anything wrong so I can fix it.

    They refund whatever you've paid on it, including the deposit, even if the item is already in stock. I've done it with a few games I changed my mind on. Even cancelled Unicron and got my $100 back since I figured there was no way I'd be able to store 2 of them.

    From their FAQ:

    2: Store Pickup:

    Once the order is ready for pick up at your chosen store, simply pop in to store and you will be able to change it to something else, or get a refund if you wish.

    Wasn't sure but makes sense I guess.

    Thanks. I was hoping that that was the case, and ordinarily I would have been happy to make that assumption, but lately far too many things have been bumped to exclusives, and I read some speculation about them being exclusive in the US (to Target, I think it was)... Figured it was better to ask

    I pre-ordered Jazz and Hotrod at Zing. Considering you end up paying for shipping from other places anyway. I put the $10 down on each

    I ended up ordering them from Zing as well. I figure that these figures will be in high demand and I don't mind paying a few extra $$ to secure mine...

    Im glad I got Giggawatt from Robotkingdom instead of Zing. Already got Snapdragon and Exhaust from Zing/Eb. Dont mind soo much with these main releases. I might get a 2nd Jazz if he pops up somewhere else earlier.
