Just went into TRU cardiff, and it had the most miserable selection ever.
Looks like they have been filling their shelves with dross overstock,
hopefully in preperation for new stuff, but It looked like they were cutting
down on the shelf space. They had loads of odds and sods of bellville (all
full price) loads of UCS Xwings (all full price), some UFO ships (all full
price) and some football sets. And that was it (apart from the wealth of
Znap they always have - at full price)
Why are we always last with the new stuff :(
