Then I call SHENANIGOATS!!!!!!!!!!!
Honestly philtastics possible explanation was about the best light that could be shone on TRU pricing, and that is not saying much.
Even with direct to Hasbro agreements, there is still no way they are paying so much that they have to overcharge on the product the way they do. As I said, if you are a nationwide business with over 70 locations, and specialize in the products Hasbro sells, you aren't getting a worse deal than the small independent guys who may or may not deal directly with Hasbro.
Maybe they'll say overhead, inflation, blah blah blah. However I see it as either greed by TRU, or the parent company trying to make back some of the purchase price.
