Wow im sorry for the some of you that have had bad experiences at Target....and i agree they need to determine what is collectible and not collectible, awhile back when DCUC and new SWs they had a sign saying that all collectibles are subject to limit and availabilty or something to that affect....wierd...

now on the other hand Walmart sometimes you might meet and person who knows nothing about the Telxons but sometimes you do....on several occassions they let me go to the back and check for cases....without any employee assisting me. and managers are usually helpful tell me when they expect shipment.

The last thing I want is to have someone I don't know to come up to me when I hunt and call me one. I buy figures for me, my nephews, and nieces on occasion.

I just want to clarify some things. 2 Rare figs? I have a Limited budget. I never pulled the stock off the shelf. Actually I find figures that are hidden away and put them back and tell employees about repacked items. I'll tell you the real story why it seem that target store knows me.

My experiences with the people who work at your store are actually very good. Very helpful and amicable except for a couple of people.

You should never describe much less judge someone you do not know. I actually looked forward to meeting you at one point, learning that you work there.

Moral of the story? Never assume.
Alternately, skywarpnipples might not be talking about you. If he's seen a scalper doing the things he's talking about, and you don't do those things, then he's not talking about you and it's not like he's accusing you personally of doing those things.

Wal-Mart at I-17 & Happy Valley also had some of the new Cyberverse legions. I saw a bunch of Soundwaves, 2 Mirages, and at least one Evac.

Crap like this makes me want to quit collecting. So much drama over SWNips saying the guy wears sunglasses? No wonder I am about the only Tucson person left.

This probably is a shot in the dark, for those folks that are seeing deluxe knockouts and voyager bulkheads would someone mind picking one of each up for me and mind mailing them to me in Tucson and i would paypal you the $$$ plus shipping to 85748 via parcel post and some $$$ for your trouble ...

i have been looking for the last few weeks down here in tucson and finding zilch.

if someone does not mind...PM me the total...
