(...) Are they going to clearance all the over-stock? I ask because in the TRU's I have visited I have found some old Star Wars sets on clearance and some like Watto's Junkyard and Gungan Sub still at full price. The clearance seems hit or miss at (...)

Howdy Bob!! (...) I was there today. The one back drop was indeed $14.99. They also had an Studios "Exploding Bank" for $19.99. Also not that great of a deal, but certainly has some great parts. The Rockraiders set in question is: (URL) didn't catch (...) (21 years ago, 27-Aug-03, to lugnet.market.shopping)

I stopped by my TRU this afternoon. For several weeks now, they have had a series of shopping carts out front just filled with *junk* for clearance. And if it rains during the days, these carts filled with stock sit in the rain. Needless to say, (...) (21 years ago, 27-Aug-03, to lugnet.market.shopping)

Hi, I live in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada and we visited the Niagara Falls, NY TRU last week. They had much older items than we have here (at least in Kitchener). They were clearing Rock Raiders and I did see some older sets in the "rafters"...but (...) (21 years ago, 27-Aug-03, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) Is this also happening at Canadian TRU Stores or only in US because I haven't seen any old sets, just shelves filled with brand new items. Steve (21 years ago, 27-Aug-03, to lugnet.market.shopping, FTX)

(...) Woohoo! (...) There's a reason for that, too. TRU stores are notorious for tossing older stock up onto the very top shelves to get it out of the way of newer stock. Noone really looks at the top shelves (not normal people, at least), however, (...) (21 years ago, 27-Aug-03, to lugnet.market.shopping, FTX)

(...) Jake is correct about the old stock. I found 2-6478 Fire Fighter HQ at a TRU about a month and a half ago. The manager was happy to let them go for $10.00 each. Of course, that was in addition to the 2 loaded carts I purchased. Steven Weiser (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.market.shopping, FTX)

All, I just got a call from a colleague in our sales department. They are working closely with the big chains this summer to clear out much of their old inventory to make way for newer products. While my colleagues were out and about all over the (...) (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct, FTX) !

(...) I just stopped by my local store and the only two shelf tags with prices over $49.99 are the AT-TE and the NBA full-court game, neither of which are really all that new as of this reset. And neither was in stock at this time. Of course, I live (...) (21 years ago, 23-Aug-03, to lugnet.market.shopping)
