Ehhh you got a fake name and we have no idea what state your in, your good bro. If TRU messages/harassess you, give em the middle finger (doubt they will) and say they got bigger things to worry about right now ;D thanks for the heads up
Edit… just realized this was originally posted weeks ago. Lmao
Sorry to hear about the job. I know you'll find something better.

For the time being that is a "unfounded rumor"

Well, that's literally Australia ^3^

So you believe that you can raise prices indefinitely without a corresponding rise in wages? Pray tell, how _does_ that work? Do you think your wage comes from a money tree out back and not the spending of other wage earners?
Anyway, you had to know store closings were coming. They always say they're not closing stores in the beginning to fool people into thinking everything is fine. If everything was fine, they would not be seeking bankruptcy protection. Not everybody that files for bankruptcy is like a certain real estate personality and gets away with it over and over and over. It usually is serious and you're lucky to make it through once.

This have to do with store closures? I saw on the news that TRU might close some of their locations in light of the bankruptcy.

Let's just say that there are things going on that make me think that that's certainly a possibility…

So, it's worse news than what we're hearing? We can at least infer that, right?

Got some bad news amigos…looks like I'll be hopping off the TRU train in the near-ish future. It was always supposed to be a temporary job (college student), but it's a real shame that it has to end the way it's ending, there's just some real bad ju ju going on with the whole bankruptcy thing that I can't really go into.
I'll still do my best to provide pertinent info while I can, just be aware, the writing is on the wall.

The computer listing wouldn't have "profit" per item. Profits are constantly in flux based on sales and operating costs. Plus, how would a product database integrate that information per item?
The product listing would list the margin/markup, as the cost would like be in the inventory system.
The 25% IS likely the store markup. Margins on toys at the retail level is in that 20-30% range.
The only way you'd k ow the stores profits would be by looking at its balance sheets, and that wouldn't be depicted as a percentage on a product.

Wages are overrated. Be glad that you're allowed to work!

Looking forward to picking up the Wave 1 deluxes at Target this Christmas for $9.99 each. Hopefully a fun repeat of TR pricing from last year, which really helped to stretch my TF budget during the Christmas season!

No. If that happened they would have to raise the price of the good and services that the sale. Then when they started to loose business they would have to pay people off.

Wouldn't it be nice if our employers raised our wages half as fast?
Prime135
Yep, right now just him prime and bee

Kroger's in my old hometown often had non-potable items. I actually bought most of my Transformers at that Kroger's in 1985. They had an entire aisle devoted to Christmas items and Transformers in 1985 as well as half their floral shop cluttered with hundreds of Insecticons and Constructicons. As a kid, it was like walking around on Cybertron, surrounded by so many Transformers. I never saw anything like that again until Episode One came out.
The one sells some discount toys and a few other items here and there, but nothing like that. I wish they had the room to do more. The more competitive they all ate, the better their prices for customers.

Don't mean to bother you but Is Barricade the only MPM on the TRU listing???

The EE pricing I was referring to was EE Distribution. There doesn't seem to be a marked difference between four other distributors that I priced out. When I read "Hasbro Direct," I was skeptical as to how they made money from the deal and that was _before_ I was subjected to the dark side of their business practices. Where MAP applied, it was usually noted separately. I only ran into it with MLP Monopoly (USAopoly throws a hissy fit over online sales), some Jazwares products (don't want garbage quality dumped at garbage prices), and exclusives (like this "exclusive" set – Star Wars Black Series 6-Inch Action Figures: Entertainment Earth – with a MAP of $80 selling for barely half that).
Like I said, though, it's a shit show. At the volume that you have to do to make it actually work, you're big enough to bypass any distributor.

Again, let me note that my data is 1. older than some TFWers' children (a kid born while I was in BUS 240 would be entering high school this year), and 2. general retail, which the toy sector may noticeably differ from, much as the petroleum industry is actually MUCH lower ROI than everybody thinks. (Everybody thinks "Cha-Ching" when they hear about "billions in profits," but few consider that their around 10% profit margin is VERY low across the corporate sector and the amount SPENT on exploration, extraction and refining to GET that profit sees a typical oil company having higher operating costs than many entire small COUNTRIES. Exploration being a huge expense by itself… a really good team will usually hit on one test well out of every ten drilled, which means before there's any profit from that Gusher it has to pay for nine dry holes first. The reason oil is so coveted as an investment is not its profit margin, but that it's a SAFE investment where your odds of losing money are approximately comparable to mine of knocking up a Playmate of the Month.)
There's also a factor called MAP – Minimum Advertised Price, where vendors are not ALLOWED to advertise below that–this is common on some computer parts, high-end electronics and firearms components, where the ways around it are to say things like "call for price," "email for quote" or "actual price shown in cart." EE's "Hasbro Direct" pricing is probably right at MAP or pretty close to it, possibly a bit higher since they have an entire layer of distribution cut out in direct sales.
