Agreed. After the last 5 or 6 failed hunts, I decided that I am just going to look whenever I'm already at the store for something else. This old cat's seen the last of his hunting days.

LOL. Remember all the crazy news stories about people getting shot, stabbed, beat down etc for PS3s and XBOX360s? I've heard similar news stories for toys during the holidays out here in L.A. Yup, we're hardcore out here.

And it has! You wanna know how I got these scars....?

SquirtleSquad7 · 09-09-2012, 11:10 AM

I would've bought them for 15, but this guy has a terrible attitude. His buddy was asking what to price something & his response was "I don't care, just make it money in my pocket". I only buy something from him if it's somewhat a fair price. I guess I'm holding out for retail or one of you guys still.

I'm all for and understand him making a profit, but that attitude pisses me off.

That guy does sound like a douche SS7

I'm L.A. Born and bred, not la county, or some suburb, actual LA, I know all about how crazy peeps can get over some stupid stuff that really doesn't matter.

This reminds me of a story...my co-worker and I were in LA and on Crenshaw Blvd. Not the most friendly area esp if you are't from the area. I'm a big guy but he was even bigger than me and made me look small.

For whatever reason, he decided to get into a situation with some locals in the area that I had to bail his ass out of.

He kept looking at me saying "What did I do wrong? What did I do wrong?"

Frank & Sons, bad or good, I'd like to see for myself but I'm not in LA.

Theres a "cool" toy store here north of Seattle called Boba Khan. Lots of cool toys, old and new, usually plenty of stock. I've had experiences there that were both good and bad. Like it or hate it, it is free enterprise. Lody said it and it's true. Business is the bottom line, just don't be taken by douche's prices.

says who? I have STILL not found any wave 18 19 or anything like that in the wild. I have kraven and beast but only cuz i called ahead, so technically they weren't on the pegs when i saw em. lol.

Everyone wants to scream about it but they are never willing to ask the other person "Hey-are you willing to take X for that item"

Instead they automatically say "That guy is ripping everyone off"

Like I always say...if I have something YOU want, ask me. You WILL be surprised.

Dude fer reals. None of the stores within 5 miles of me have anything new, but go 7-10 miles out and there they are

Tiberius · 09-09-2012, 11:33 AM

It's ok, I can travel 100miles and find nothing :P

TheDub · 09-09-2012, 11:34 AM
