Slasher at it again- WEst Boylston Wal Mart shoppers look!!!!
|
I looked at figures for you guys yesterday at the Wal Mart in West Boylston, the same Wal Mart that has had some big issues with placing returned 'slashed' figures back up.
Well I noticed that they have the Death Star Gunner but the figure was the ROTS Emperor.
Now for that part that really P'ed me off. I bought a pack of NASCAR racing cards for the fun of it ( well I went pack feeling and this pack had a memorabilia card in it ). After opening the pack I found the race used card but noticed it had been tampered with. As the peice of race used glove was gone! I checked the foil and sure enough it was heat burned a bit from being re-sealed.
This Wal Mart is crap and now offically on the boycot list.

Sorry to hear that man. They should have a teraining class for the returnd dept for being able to spot when a collectible comes back and is tampered with or fraud has been perpetrated by a person returning items.

this WW is one of the worst as far as returns go. last year during the ROTS line I found several slashed packages there. Hell I found 3 Evolution fig packs for the Stormtroopers that had all sorts of figs in there. Store employees don't care enough or even know enough to be allowed to accept return items especially collectible stuff. Last year I did speak to a Hasbro rep and she basically said they were aware of what was going on, but it was up to the store to do something about it because once the item leaves Hasbro it is no longer their problem. She did say they aren't supposed to sell the product though because it isn't right. If they did sell it they were supposed to sell it for less. But that never happened considering since I brought several items to employees attention and they were back on the shelves the next time I went.
