If they don't receive the full shipment- they fill online orders first and retail gets the left overs- which means it might be difficult to find this exclusive item in store. Another possibility is that they were gauging the demand for this item in order to ascertain what kind of supply they would need.
But it said 'Also available in stores'...

Which means absolutely nothing- they have stuff like that online that I have never seen in store.

Hey Frostliger, thanks! Good of you to share! I've gotten the BBs I want but am very sure that we'll be out of the 2 pack for sure. So I've done my pre-order too.

My thoughts exactly when I saw it was up again. went all the way to checkout and found that it was almost $30 with tax and shipping. I am resisting, but we will see how I feel after I talk to the stockers at "the Wal" tonight.

After being severely depressed for not buying that 2-pack while I had the chance (I was all the way to the very last step buying it online when it suddenly disappeared), I bought it the instant I saw it online this morning. I was really surprised, but I could not lose the chance this time around.
Sure, I don't like the battle damage, but it'll do. I don't have a 74 BB either, so it works out for me.

I guess it's easier for us non-Americans. In Asia each deluxe figure is USD$18-21
RRP So when I see how including shipping it 'only' costs $30 to an address in the States it's an easier decision to make.
