I think with a lot of these comic shops they're realizing there is more money in the card games - Magic, Yu-Gi-Oh, etc. and give very little concern for action figures. I experienced that with Dungeon Comics when it was in Dundas.
I think depends on how pack the store is. Part of the model is like, it's only 1 action figure. If the store clearance it, they lose money for sure. Maybe someday people would want to buy it.
