I'm sorry, but I just find that to be ridiculous. I feel for them, I really do, but they're their own worst enemy.

They stock a lot of items that clearly don't sell, or leave people with a "WTF?" on their minds.

They overstock everything.

They overprice everything.

They're good people and I want to see them to continue to flourish, I really do, but this 20-50% off just ain't gonna cut it. They've already cut the prices, but if they really want to make a dent in that, they're gonna have to take it on the chin and let some of that stuff go for upwards of 90% off.

After seeing the warehouse pictures, I'm just stunned that they'd order that much stuff. I realize they need enough to compete with the big box retailers and keep everyone happy, but that's beyond excessive.

They could donate some of that to Toys For Tots (who knows? They might. I'm not saying they don't, just saying it's an option.) or some other charity. I'm sure they could receive a tax break for it somewhere. (or however that works.)

I don't envy them, at all, but seriously...that warehouse is picture proof that you can go too far.

I'd like to buy some stuff, but everything on the sale list is not of interest to me. I missed out on the last sale due to a tightened wallet, but now that I've got my finances close to fixed I will have to wait for the next sale.

They overprice Transformers then only sell many of them when they go on discount.

They carry a lot of anime girl PVCs, including some with the removable clothing items, for high prices. Does anyone even buy those?

I saw 1 item I'd buy for $4 but it's not worth the shipping costs for such a one-off novelty.

Cash flow...or going down.

Awesome, I order City Commander from TF Source cause BBTS was out of them, now they are back in stock, and TF Source won't still hasn't shipped mine, charged me, or replied to my email as to why it has taken them over a week to process my order.

aaaaaaaaah found somethingI might like....

[inadvertent imitation]

They originally wanted $15 for Star Wars POTF2 figures? First of all, why would they even BUY those, secondly, what SW collector doesn't already own all those?

That's just crazy, and not good business.

I appreciate the photo walk through of BBTS's warehouse, always wanted to see what my favorite online toy store looks like behind the scenes.

I just wish that I could take advantage of the sale, I don't really need anything that they included in it.

Shadow Commander....*drool*
