Here's an obnoxious one...  I sold a guy a factory sealed blu-ray.

He comes back over two weeks later to say that there's a small tear in the cardboard on the slipcover and he'd like to return it. 

From his photos it appears he's removed the shrinkwrap.  So I ask him about that and offer a partial refund for the cardboard tear... no response. 

I call eBay and ask what to do - they said that they expect me to provide a label and accept the return, full stop.  So I'll spend money to ship it to him, pay for him to ship it back, and then end up with an item that isn't in the condition I sent it to him in and is worth less for having been opened. 

1 out of 10.

This figure looks great.  It's not a $28 item.  My biggest gripe is that his left hand basically won't hold any of the accessories that he comes with, and the extra hand that you can swap out is for his right arm, so it's basically only worthwhile if you want him to hold the cup instead of the staff or a blaster in his right hand.

Amazon has had a bunch of flash sales running today, I picked up the Jedi Survivor 3-pack with the SBD, BD and Magnaguard for 50% off. ($34.99) also picked up Wim on sale too…he had been sold out there for awhile. Saw quite a few other things discounted as well…YMMV. 

I saw it was available for shipping for the first time this morning, but I held off on ordering a second because I’m still waiting on the first one to arrive. If I ever see one in store I might pull the trigger though.

What a weird situation.  I’m quite happy to not be obsessively checking the app anymore.

Yeah, I'd love a behind the scenes accounting for why Target bothered to cancel all of the pre-orders, not change any pricing, but then it seems sufficient quantities showed up at retail in the following weeks.  Maybe they've got some kind of screwed up pre-order / shipping algorithm but this seems to have done nothing other than annoy the crap out of collectors with no upside for Target. 

I'm glad it seems to have all worked out for everyone, but geez, this could have been handled a lot better.
