He looked at me and fully serious said to me, "well you can buy one of these from the store for -insert inflated price here-" (I want to say it was a $20 or $25 two pack, this was some time ago and he was saying the store was charging double the retail price). I hate saying negative stuff online, but seriously, I advise you go elsewhere.

Sounds like the owner to a store around me called Hero Headquarters.

He will send his employees out to find figures at the TRU and Walmart that are down the street from him and mark the figures up $20. Not just that, but he does it to the figures he even gets instock. The day the first wave of DCD Arkham Asylum figures came out he priced Harley at $65 despite his discounts for ordering from Diamond.
