Toys R Us Pricing Officially Out Of Hand

I’ve noticed that the prices at the two TRUs near me – one just about twenty miles from the other – have quite different prices, at least for collector figures. For example, theĀ Evil Dead II Henrietta figure is $18.99 at one TRU, and $15.99 at another. Three bucks is a pretty significant difference in terms of what I’m willing to pay for a toy.

Now, I was already aware of this practice – I’d seen it at Target many times. And supposedly TRU will price-match to the website, which is good news.

But still, there’s adding a few bucks to a figure in a wealthier area, and then there’s this.

Holy cow. Pic from T16skyhopp, who evidently lives in El Dorado.

UPDATE: Or as RobbieValiant points out in the comments, maybe someone just mixed up the 1 and 2. I’m really not sure about that, though.
