That's the excuse they gave you? The one they gave me was there was some
kind of software glitch on their system that mistagged a lot of toys. Here
is the "official" story:

I know a lot of places will honor mistagged merch sales, but they've got a
terms & conditions page that states their re-pricing policy (they just offer
the item at the "correct" (higher) price). I gave them whatfor on the phone
and through a bunch of emails the last time but it was like talking to
rocks. I ended my last contact with "You people are ridiculous." Never
again. I'll pick this up at a b&m where I can walk out with it under my
arm.
