A Tip For Canadian And American Walmart Shoppers

Posted by Paul | September 08, 2013 at 02:59 PM ET

JTA Canadian reader Bruno writes in with a tip that may help you secure The Black Series 6" figures at your local store. And since they're even hard to find at Walmart in the USA, maybe these tips can perhaps help American readers too. Click through for more!

Hi Paul,

Please share this. It may help a lot of people actually.

Just thought i would share a tip with you. Remember i always complain about the 6 inch line not being available at local Wal-Mart. Well i took matters in hand and did the following:

I was trying to find a way to contact the local Wal-Mart to ask them why they did not get anymore 6 inch black series toys. I finally landed on a customer feedback page for Wal-Mart Canada. I wrote a nice note saying that there was no stock and i was asking why and that it would be nice to get some more.

I filled in all of the required details and phone number and i was able to choose the store i was referring to. I sent this away not expecting much. I got a canned email a few days after thanking me for my feedback and left it at that. Everyone knows that these companies usually don’t pay much attention to customers demands and i was not expecting anything.

Today i got a Phone call from Wal-Mart. It was a lady named Susan and she was telling me that they had gotten some in their store. I was like “what? Are you serious? “ I truly did not expect this at all. I spoke to her about the supply problem and i asked her if this was going to be restocked on a regular basis. She put me on hold and came back a few minutes later to tell me yes. They had a hard time to get those but apparently it is better now. I guess she spoke to some sort of manager or supervisor on this.

I was floored and impressed. What i did actually worked and gave me results in the end. Now i have to wait for the darn paycheck to come in before i can go get some new sandtroopers but now i know that the store knows that this is a good seller toy and that they should get some more.

I would encourage everyone to do the same. It just cost me a few minutes of my time to do what i did and i got some good results. If they are hard to find in your area it does not hurt to ask for them.

I got results, maybe you can get some too!

cheers!
