February 2016 Polybag Availability Update

Original Post:

Sorry if there's a post like this already. I searched but polybag comes up in so many threads its hard to see! I was thinking of getting polybags to sell. I'm not really looking for huge profit, mostly it seemed like a good idea for building up my eBay feedback. So I don't need to be super profitable but of course I don't want to lose money with shipping, etc. How do you know what bags will do well (obviously like anything theres no sure thing but any idea what does decent vs what js pretty much always a flop). They are hard to search for since they are random. How long do they usually last? Is there any general tips you could give?

The Snowspeeder is available at Walmart as well.

Is that Popcorn Cart poly still hanging around Walmarts?  Has it been found anywhere else?

There's only a few at 2/5 walmarts near me.

Anyone seen the 30461 Pod Racer 20th Anniv Star Wars polybag anywhere?  Not finding that in Target or Walmart near me.  Any DPCI or SKU? Thanks!

anyone have walmart SKU for Dum-E polybag?

 

 

Found the 30461 Podracer polybag at Target today on an endcap with all the 20th Anniversary Star Wars sets.  All the previous Targets I have visited only had the Snowspeeder and Naboo Starfighter polys, must have been waiting for an April 1 set date.  DPCI for all three:

30461 Podracer 204-00-4899

30384 Snowspeeder 204-00-4845

30383 Naboo Starfighter 204-00-0546

Also found a new (to me) poly at Walmart, 30363 City theme Race Boat.  If you're looking for polybags at Walmart, check the Easter section that may not be near the toys, there are a bunch of Easter toys and Lego has a display stand with Minecraft, Tulips, Star Wars, City, Friends, Ninjago small sets.

Target's got that screwed up in their inventory system.  I went last week to get the Cherry Pickers with that DPCI and all they found when they scanned the packages was the Naboo Starfighter.  

I guess a bunch of people were able to order the Cherry Picker yesterday for $3.99 until Target made the product page unavailable, but I did confirm via photo and receipt the DPCI is correct.

Picked up a couple of these the other day may go back a clean them out. Between the wheels and popcorn kernels/box it's a nice parts bag

So the Iron Man poly is at Walmart correct?  Need to hunt one of these down.

Needles in haystacks.....they're tough to locate. Some have found them in the Lego aisle, some have found them in the Easter section, some haven't found them at all! Good luck!!

Agree. Walmart had the worse inventory system/location compare to Target.

Remind me again, using B-Seek-ing tactics, does anyone have success with Polys?

I put in a SKU I want and at least 20 in stock in every store, but obviously none are there haha. So do they combine all polys under similar SKUs? Or does that mean they aren't on the floor yet?

And if that tactic doesn't work, is it literally just a "drive by and search" technique to locate polys?

This dumb poly is giving me FOMO.
Walmart's SKU pulls up the specific description, so I'm sure it's not combined like Target often does.
I don't think there's any way around the "Drive by and search."
My closest stores claim to have 5 each, but I can't find any. The numbers haven't gone down in the last week, so I'm assuming they're in the back or don't exist.

It has a unique sku, but shares the same upc as race car.

Exactly. All my stores numbers don’t decrease either, so I am thinking if a store hasn’t put out the actual Endgame sets...then same would go with the polys?

That seems way to organized for a Walmart though [emoji23]

Our WM has the Endgame sets out (in a cardboard end-cap), showed 16 poly bags 2 days ago (but none in store), then 15 yesterday (but none in store again)... so not sure what to think.
