CabDriver Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 That's not actually Walmart - Walmart runs an Amazon-style site where any seller can sell their goods. Notice the seller is "D.K. Wholesale Office Furniture, Inc." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike999 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Holy carp! What is it with that kit? Here's somebody on eBay asking $101.99. With FREE SHIPPING! Gee, thanks a lot, Santa Claus. I thought these people may know nothing about scale models, and believe these are antique kits made in 1966. But the eBay listing clearly says "Is Discontinued By Manufacturer: No" and "Release date: April 27, 2017." So the seller should know better.

espo Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 They didn't mention how many models are in that case lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSheep214 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Yup... Walmart has other distributors to stock some of their products. Not everything is stocked by Walmart online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1930fordpickup Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 If you are trying to see if your local Walmart has models, you will have to go to the website for that store. Then look under in store only. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like amazon, or eBay, you can find the same item (or a kit) listed for a wide range of prices. From low to outrageous. Walmart, just like those other sites, is simply providing a service to outside sellers to sell their wares (for whatever prices they want to charge). In that the Walmart is no different than eBay or amazon. Edited October 5, 2021 by peteski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that the Walmart is no different than eBay or amazon. Yep. Prices can vary, wildly. I tend to look around, for kits. Most of my standard tools and supplies--I already know where I'm going, for those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
