On another forum, a B&N employee told me that the company has been experimenting with discount tiers. Sometimes B&N doesn't drop everything to $2 but instead rolls back the discount %.

Oh my... Well, I guess I missed my chance to get Aquaman from them. Good thing he's still $23.97 on Amazon.

I checked in store tonight, clearance still at 75%, but they only had a small table of stuff left. Justice League Cyborg was there with no other toys or collectibles. Not sure if other stuff sold or they just got rid of it.

I went ahead and picked up the Cyborg figure, but not sure if I'll keep it or not. $19 isn't too bad.

Thanks for the update, golem216. I may go in for one last pass next week. $20 for Koto stuff isn't bad.

Clearance is now $2. I was able still find a few items, likely because they weren't with the clearance stuff.

I got the r2q4 droid, justice league flash and cyborg. I'm going to return the cyborg for $20 that i bought, maybe see if i can get that for $2.

One store showed they had a ton more in stock, but nothing in sight.

Oh man, those are great for $2! I searched all over town for Aquaman for $20, but literally all Koto statues are gone from the B&Ns in my area. I'll check to see if there are some $2 Pops later this week, though.

I checked store stock status again this morning for the store that showed having 6 or 7 ArtFX statues in stock and the stock still shows. I'm wondering now if they happened to have them in the back somewhere or if they were stashed in the store somewhere.

Anyway, I tried a return/rebuy of the Cyborg I originally got for $20 and was able to get it for $2. I guess it's more to do with how your conversation goes to get them to not question it. The cashier said that if I was returning it that they would have definitely bought it themselves.

All stores around me appear to be OOS based on inventory except for the one store, but I'm thinking it's an error. I already have most of the ones they show in stock anyway.

A few items discounted on BN.com:

https://www.barnesandnoble.com/b/cle...Sale_Price%7C1

Luke & Leia 2pk $83.96
C-3PO, R2-D2 & BB-8 3pk $76.96
Yoda & R2-D2 Dagobah $48.96

I know Yoda/R2-D2 has been cheaper before, at least 50% prior.

Nice! I wonder if this means they're starting the cycle of 25% off, 50% off, 75% off, $2 again. Seems to happen in April and October.

I was hoping to pick up K-2SO and the Flametrooper/Snowtrooper two pack, but doesn't look like those are dropping this go 'round.

Visited a local store today and saw the luke/leia and c3po/r2d2/bb8 in clearance area for 30% off. I may buy if they got at least 75% off. It seems Koto figures are all gone from this particular store. It seems all newer ones are online only, at least in my area.
