Sales Floor Let's meet in the Middle; an Electronics/Tech thread

[Budweisered4]

We always Stage big releases even those the night before so it’s easier for the opener

Example:
Monday Night on the way to closing huddle at store close we would wheel up the new release fixture for Tuesday morning so it’s ready for store open the next day

Funkos go the same when there’s dated for a certain day

Our stockroom is even organized to where all street dates of product are easy to find

The collectors were lined up outside the store for that stupid Pop today. They were pissed when they found out that no, we did not prepare ahead of time because it's a crap toy and our electronics TM showed up half an hour late. Oh Well. 🤷‍♂️

Lol rip for them

We had about 18 OH and only sold about 4 during my 6 hour shift. No one was waiting for them outside before open.

Seconded. I came in to close and we had sold 1 of 16. It was still only one sold when I left.

Easy with the salt bud

I love when they come the day after and expect us to be fully stocked on everything they want. You snooze you loose. Still today get people asking for Pikachu Funko. Does limited time not mean anything to you?

 

[can't touch this]

We still have about 10 Bulbasaurs

 

[OneArmedJesus]

Funny bc we got 18 in but there was no line at 8am, just an ex tl. I sold like 5 in a 8 hour shift. Then they sold quickly after that

Saw this one kid at the event table with a pony tail, fedora, trench coat, socks/sandals and no chin...got his number if any of you ladies are looking for a man

Why is Breath of the Wild discontinued?

 

[GoodyNN]

Why is Breath of the Wild discontinued?

Because it's more than 2 years old and they want the space for something newer, probably?

 

[techGuy777]

There's still commercials being made for that game though and I have a lot of guests asking me for it.

 

[TTB]

Wow I was wondering the same thing...you think I should order it online before it sells out?

 

[OrderSickUp]

Speaking of Poke Pops, I went to another store in my city Tuesday and in addition to the big and little Bulbasaurs, they had 3-4 Pikachus. I was amazed. What do you guys think: Did this store get restocks of them? Or were the conspiracy theoriests right and they truly being hoarded in the backroom for however many months? 😆

When I was working Wednesday we had 6 Pikachus in stock.
I know for a fact they were not in the backroom because we sold through our initial shipment.

We never have any Funko product in the back unless it’s street dated. We throw out the planogram (still tied) and merchandise it just like a VMG. Sure we may have to add shelves but we have gotten many compliments on it and we sell thru and get a lot replenshied as well

 

[2nice2people]

I have said that a million times! I refuse to take charge of it and get it dumped on me. It goes decode so fast it should be treated like VMG. The back room is going to burst with that crap & probably 90% is decode but they turn blind eye to it.

Anyone lately get bombarded with online only Electronics products? The last few trucks we’ve gotten multiple U boats worth of product that was a known online exclusive product not sold in stores but now we have them. We got the ok to build Amp Fixtures & store tie it to try to sell thru but did the DC really need to send over 100each of multiple dpci’s

Kind of for my store, though all I've seen so far has been stuff we can only do as online item tickets.

There’s a upcoming revision for all the stuff we got but still we never get that much of things we truly need that would sell thru fast like hot cakes

That's the DPCI for the Galaxy Buds. (You're welcome btw, I posted that on the discord) meaning we'll get them in at some point

Apparently Target.com had them up at some point
