I am constantly amazed at the prices i find at kbkids and kbtoys.  they • are
usually 10-20% higher than anywhere else i go.  an example is the tie
fighter/y-wing set.  $49 at target $59 at kbkids.  it is no wonder they • always
have inventory.

Yes, for currently available sets, KB Toys pretty much sucks rocks.  They
are pretty consistently over priced, but this plays into their 20% off sale
that they run quite frequently, which brings their prices in line with
elsewhere.

Where KB really shines is on the couple, usually older sets, that they get
and heavily discount.

Recently:

Night Lord's Castle @ $40
Aqua Dozer @ $12 (Now back up to $15)
Witches Windship @ $5
Deep Reef Refuge @ $30

These are at about half of retail price, and if you get them when they are
having their 20% off sale, are a real bargain.  If you have a coupon you are
even better off.  I was just at the site and seen all but the Castle today.
