The Product Of A Shameless Collector

JTA reader Peter G. writes in with photographic evidence of the marks of an unscrupulous collector in action in Ocean NJ. Click through for his experience.

Hey Paul,

Not sure what to make of it, but they had some of the Internet-only Final Wave of Vintage figures, and they were marked on clearance for $6.96. There were three on the shelf: Aurra Sing, Mawhonic, and Naboo Pilot. They were fairly beat up, but I took them as openers.

Did Target really get a case of these? Did someone return the wrong thing? There was no trouble ringing them up during checkout.

If only the Royal Guard or Republic Trooper were there...

- Peter (aka Jub Goobles)

Peter - Someone has returned the less desirable "carry-forward" figures from the final online exclusive The Vintage Collection wave. This "collector" may have not been interested in the exclusive TVC packaging and picked up the Discover The Force versions instead. These were meant to be available at TARGET, so it makes sense that they would come up in their system. I actually expected to see this a lot more than I did in my area. I am however glad that you needed them for your own collection.
