Not much on sale at the Aurora Target store. The Star Destoryer shelf is empty.

Differnet Target have different clearance pricing now just like Walmart which sucks.

I managed to find two at the Erin Mills Town Centre Target in Mississauga Ontario...I purchased one and left the other one there, just as the store was closing. There'll be one waiting there in the morning for anyone in the area looking to find one.

Got mines! They don't do Rain Checks one these btw...I asked and they said no, due to the fact it wasn't an "advertised" sale. Also it's not a clearance item, it's just a "unadvertised sale". Thanks to original poster that mentioned this to begin with.

No chance at getting a rain check me neither. Nonetheless, the CS clerk was kind enough to make some phone calls and find me a SD in a nearby Target. I picked mine and then went take a look in the toy section and there were none, so it was the last one. Dang! these ones are going out fast.

Oh well too bad no rain checks then, hopefully they will restock them though, the targets in my area are all out.

The sole reason why some of these sets will never see 50% or more.

The destroyer was a one week sale. It's back to the regular price of 149.99 and my local target suddenly has two on the shelf.

did you scan one? I'm sure these still ring at $104.99. IIRC, this sale is supposed to last until September ends the 26th or 28th 20th

That's quite odd. The sales associate I dealt with handed out rain-checks - it wasn't even my suggestion, he asked me if I wanted one and off I went... odd, they need to become more consistent!

Just like Walmart, they are not and will never be. The better ones they hired when they first openned quit due to lack of hours. Some of the new ones they hired do not really give a s***. But like all retailers, they get them which ever way they can if they are desperate.

Oakville Target still has everything except the Destroyer.

I'm tempted by that Palpatine set but even at $28 it seems awfully steep.

Oh didn't even know Palpatine was included in that set but then again i never really looked at it closely because the box and the set looked very unattractive, but thanks!

Agree, it is and will be one of those sets that nobody want till it hit the 50% off or more clearance sale\bargain bin.

Kinda reminds me of this one :-D. It was overpriced until it hit 12 bucks and change at RCS.

Target in Burlington still has some Destroyers as well as that big tractor trailer from the Agents line.
