Wal*Mart sending back non-selling BDs? - Blu-ray Forum

Grant Matrix · 09-30-2008, 11:40 AM

So the same Walmart store that refused to price match Iron Man BD (https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...37#post1187637) did something else that left me shocked. On Sunday morning they had half an isle filled with catalog titles and older releases. It was a great selection of movies. This morning it looked as though they took ¾ of the movies off the shelves and did who knows what with them, but it was the kind of site usually seen when a store is sending product back to the seller. I would say about 40 movies that had a decent stock two days ago were removed and now have empty shelves. Anyone else notice this in their Walmart?

New MODS......I noticed a new selection of catalog titles was available including FOX titles such as I robot, ID4. They added the Universal titles they didnt have as well

Agreed, they are getting ready for the Christmas shopping season, they will be adding many, many more titles soon.

Well thats good my walmart has a CRAPPY selection of BD titles, its that bad I can't even find the BD of transformers. And when I casked about it they couldn't give me a straight answer.

I went in at Midnight to go get Iron Man and the same thing was in progress. 3/4 of everything was gone and being boxed up. My suspicion is new titles.

Yeah, I hope its new titles. Sucks that they would box it all up...should discount titles!

They are sent back to the vendors for other titles. The wally world I work at does this quite often. Once they get pulled, they are sent back to our claims department, scanned, boxed and sent back to the vendors. We now have two end caps as well an 8 foot section of titles at the store I work at.
