Here's one:
I'm at Target back during the Thanos wave and there's jack- I'm seriously thinkning of buying one on amazon for $25 (plus the $7.50 hosing in shipping, of course).
this guy comes down the asile and looks at the MU figures and we get to talking- he's cool and even makes customs.
He tells me that sunday nights Target restocks and every monday morning scalpers hit that store.

Buh.

So I start going there first thing Monday mornings- the very next week I score a Thanos and an extra Union Jack which I was gong to do some custom with...and that same guy shows up, looks at my Union Jack and say "Man, that's the one I was looking for!"
So I give the guy that fig to buy and he's happy, I'm happy and I see that guy all over now and we're cool.

And now I hit target on Monday mornings- beating scalpers most times- recently buying two color Doc Stranges, a Skarr, a Scarlett Spider and two Falcons- hooking up two Arkers and completing my collection (for now).

Pays to be cool and it's odd to consider but I outscalped the scalpers!
