As for pricing, that's not really up my alley - I passed along the issues raised here so that the owner and managers know what is being said. All I can tell you is this: we run coupons and an ever-changing blowout sale all the time, so discounts are the norm for us. We also try to have the best in customer service, a very wide selection of merchandise that includes hard-to-find items, and to keep and ship them in the best condition possible. We may not be the cheapest store out there, and on some items, we may even have incorrect pricing (we're human, we do make mistakes - and sometimes we even pay too much ourselves). And it's probably clear already that I can't just wave my hand and make all our prices lower - that's not one of my super-powers. But we're not greedy corporate monsters either! I work with people who play the games we sell, collect the toys and feel pretty lucky to work in an industry we love.
Anyway, I can probably help a little with prices - coupons and discounts are big with us, so please let me know if you need a code or if there's something I might do to help. Mostly we run those on Twitter, Facebook or our blog, but I will gladly send current specials to anyone who wants them.

You know, as to pricing, this board is a great resource as to what really is and is not a rarity among the marel Universe line- thar loose Secret Wars Thing you have for $25 is certainly not either rare or worth anything- I just saw it in the two pack (With Bulldozer) for $14 at Wal Mart. That figure has been released several times now and I've never hear of anyone looking for it.
It would be great to hear about "blowout sales" or cupons here though- if there's really a value to be had, you can bet we'd jump on it.
As to my personal issue...I'm over it. It would be nice o see that awful Firestar removed from the loose Figures section as it's not in stock and is not part of the Marvel Universe line at all (and all the other figures in that section are).
Why even list figures that are not available? BBTS does this too and it's maddening!
