Madcrazyloco suggested we meet up and swap a figure or two. Normally I avoid face-to-face transactions. Too many horror stories I have heard from eBay folks doing just that.
Usually ends in one person offering to give the other a massage. But anyway, madcrazyloco was a cordial and helpful fellow Joe fan and I am the proud owner of a figure I couldn't find. Hat's off to this Real American Hero! (sorry, just had to) Smitty |

Meeting up with an ebayer and meeting up with a fellow joe board member is completely different I've met many people from various Joe boards and have never had a bad experience. Mostly just made a lot of friends. I recommend everyone doing this at least a couple of times.

I've met up with 2 tank members myself. The first member was wobbles and we just purchased a few figures from each other a few times when we each needed something. Since then I believe wobbles has sold off his Joe collection and left the game. Another member I met was RedEyes. We look out for each other while out on hunts. If we see something that we think the other guy needs we will place a phone call, or even just purchase the item and meet up. RedEyes has even gone as far as to hide items for me in a store and then text my cellphone to tell me where he has hidden them. It's like a treasure hunt...LOL
I think it's pretty cool when you find a fellow Joe fan who lives locally to you. |

I've met 2 people on the boards here - one was in wal-mart and the other I've made a few trades with. It's nice to have local people who can help you find stuff.
