What's the best way to found out which toys are going on clearance? Any particular websites/apps that you like? Also, what good deals have you found lately?

Pic related. This bitch sells for ass-rape prices on eBay now, and she was once $9 on Amazon.

Honestly? It's impossible unless you pay attention if you're toy hunting in store. For me, I'd say it's a hunch. For example, I can easily see almost the whole Power Players wave go to clearance in a couple months. No one's buying them except for Galileo who's harder to find.

I almost got a good deal for a Colossal T-Rex (25 shipped) but the seller cancelled it because of 'irl holdups'. Oh well.

Impossible to tell, my meijer still has some of the ml absorbing man wave that they just refuse to put on clearance. Put the retro x-men wave on clearance before a year had even passed though.

The best way is to hunt around in person.

Pick out you're favorite store and go there often. Or save the gas money and just buy whatever at regular price.

There's really no way to tell at most stores other than going there in person. Walmart and Target don't do global clearance, something that's on clearance in one store is likely full price in another.

fuck. none of my TRU's had Rogue, or any of the GOOD ML's. most of the good toys were only around during the 10% off season, while the stragglers stuck around to be like 80%, like the Lightseekers.

Fucking Lightseekers. A shame that Tyrax was the only good looking one out of that shitfest.

I remembered thinking all the good shit would still be there when it goes to 20 but the fucking idiots assumed 10% was good enough and bought out like 70% the store. I'm glad I made out with them Pokemon Mega sets, made a tidy profit on them a couple months ago.

Oh damn, I picked up an extra when it was on clearance for customizing, put it away and never looked at it. Can't believe it's selling for $100+ misb.

Aw man, I always wanted a Slippy but I wasn't willing to pay $11 for him. Wish he'd gone on clearance in my area.

A couple of months ago, I would have said Brickseek's inventory checkers were the best way to see when something goes on clearance, but they've stopped working (at least for me). Other than that, I think it helps to think in terms of waves or think seasonally. Be aware of when new waves of toy lines are to be released and check stores in the weeks before. Product tends to go on clearance after some holidays, so check stores after Easter. Depending on how long this coronavirus pandemic goes, it could be potential windfall for bargain hunters.

Pretty much the way with ML, for those who are paying attention.

Yeah, I was kinda oblivious to this for a while, but it turns out that quite a few figures I halfheartedly picked up because "eh, why not" have really gone up in price as they get harder to find.

I sold some Spidey rogues recently and in hindsight I probably could've waited on them just in case...

I've had a similar problem. It used to be pretty great but the last few times I used Brickseek it was so horribly wrong.
