So it would probably be a wasted question.
To be blunt, and no disrespect to either the person who asked the question or those voting for it, as it is an issue that effects all of us, but the question will be wasted. Hasbro has stated in similar themed questions that the stores are the ones who set the end pricing. Also in the response I have from Zellers if it was an issue from Hasbro I'm sure they would have stated it outright rather than dance around their pricing structure.
If this is one of the questions the response will likely be, that while they work with the companies running exclusive and do what they can to make these items available to us, that the pricing is set by the retailers, and beyond their control.
