Re: Star Wars Online/Pre Order Sightings Thread
To be clear Hasbro Canada raised prices and not retailers. The price has gone up across Canada for every store. Retailers are not gouging us.
There's no doubt operating costs have risen. Ocean cargo prices are at an all-time high. Maybe Hasbro Canada thinks Canadians are on a better foundation as opposed to our USA counterparts and can handle a price increase in today's world. Target has risen prices in some stores. Maybe Walmart USA increased orders to get a better discount to keep prices low. Many factors are possible.
However, paying $35+ for one repainted Star Wars Black or Marvel Legends figure is just foolish. I'm going to have to find another way or stop collecting.
