Spiderman Marvel Legends Price Jump?

So when the spidey legends started to pop up at walmart they were 19.92 and that was cool and everything, but then when i went to walmart yesterday their prices were raised 3 more dollars. I wonder what happened. Anyone else notice that? Target so far has stopped getting the legends figs, and even on sale the spidey legends do not move from tru.

Re: Spiderman Marvel Legends Price Jump?

I noticed it a few days ago and commented on the boards about it too. I think they realized that they thought they were "undercharging" on them and put their price up to "be more inline" with other retailers.
Either way it sucks! I am just glad I completed my set when it was still under $20 so now they can just sit there.
Despite the price increase it is still $4 cheaper than TRU so we are little luckier in that regard...but just a little.

They increased the price at my local Walmart at well. But I was able to argue for the $19.92 price, as they still had a peg or two marked at that.

Scan before you buy, they may still ring up at $19.92. I picked up Toxin, Spider-Girl and Boomerang earlier this week at that price even though the shelf tag said $22.92.

Thanks for the tip! My Wal-Mart removed the price tags for the Spidey Legends.

Did you ask about SCOP?

You could have got an extra $10 off of one figure at $19.92 making the price $9.92.

I was not aware of SCOP (had to google it just now). Ahh, I wish I did know now. I could have argued for that... At the same time I think they could have countered as I saw 2 different price stickers for the MLs. One marked at $19.92 and the other $22.92.

At Wal-Mart they have a blue sticker near every cash register that tells you about SCOP. Since the price tag was left at $19.92 on the peg you would have been entitled to have SCOP applied to all your figures regardless of the $22.92 label. It is Wal-Mart's fault for leaving that price tag on the peg.

A Toxin or Spider-Girl for $9.92 would have been a smoking hot price.
