Actually, I remember hearing stories years ago back when it was just chases, of hobby store owners taking all the chases, putting them in a shopping cart at retail, taking them back to their store and obviously marking them up. I'm sure in some places it still happens. I know with CL's there are some employees on the take.
Another story that comes to mind is where a scalper somehow got hold of a Wal-Mart Smock and actually went into the back and came out with several chases.
