What would the best course of action be? Should I get the Botcon version off eBay, put my pre-order on BBTS of Universe wave 2 and Thundercracker on a diffent card in case I don't have a full-time job by then, or pay the 800 or more for the Botcon set (something I am trying to avoid)? |

Dude if you're having to use a credit card that's "good enough" to buy a toy you should seek debt counseling. Assuming "good enough" means "not maxed out yet". If that's what it means don't do it. |

And on top of that you only have a part time job. I say keep the card in the pocket and save some stress later on. |

I say keep the card in the pocket and save some stress later on. | Listen to P_D man, I had about $2,000 when my mom kicked me out and I'm having to pay for my dad's bills and stuff since he claims he has cancer and can't work normal jobs and I have problems myself and I have yet been unable to get a job, down to my last 400 or so and I still see lots of TFs I want. I know what it's like to be low on cash or unable to afford something you want but with a credit card you end up paying way too much, don't do it. Are any of these toys worth going in the hole for? |
