Man WTF,
Everytime I go over to hasbrotoyshop.com everything is always listed as out of stock, well not everything but most of the things I want. Why can't I never be able to get the items I need from HTS. Do people actually sleep by there computers/laptops or something. Or do they leave their computers logged on to HTS and never leave the site. Quote:
Does HTS put a limit on the amout you can buy.

Apparently they don't

I know scalpers like to buy up all the joes in the brick-or-motar stores but now it looks like we have a new breed of scalper called THE CYBER SCALPER.
Quote:
If there out of stock does that mean forever or is it a temporary thing, I just hope they get it back in stock ASAP.

Now do you feel my pain.

That fall20 code certainly helped me decide to order some items yesterday. I missed out on the wave 10 figures, but no reason to be upset about it. I'll get them eventually. I did manage to get the 2 new DVD sets and some vehicles. The 1st wave of these items don't seem to be selling much in my area. I don't sit at my computer all day either. It's all about being on the right times. Sometimes luck is on your side, sometimes it is not. |

You think that there are only two or three people ordering from HTS? As soon as one person notices they have stock in, it gets posted on a Joe site. Within seconds it's on EVERY Joe site. And then every collector who happens to see the postings rushes over to attempt to buy the figures. So you end up with a bunch of people all buying their limit and then some of them placing additional orders to make the squads they want. Speedy sell out. It's like sales on Black Friday. You go wanting to buy something and discover there are a hundred people showing up at the store at 4 in the morning and then snatching every last one of the items before you can even manage to get your hands on one.

Items were up for sale for 8 hrs yesterday. Anyone who has a normal work schedule and computer access coulda bought these items. Sure it sucks, but most of us just say "oh well, I was too late." Its nobodys fault, no need to complain. If this is the worst part of your life, you have no room to complain.

This situation reminds me of a quote from the movie "Kelly's Heroes":
[Oddball sees that the bridge he wants to cross is intact and is pleased with himself] Oddball: It's still up! [a plane flies over the bridge and bombs it... direct hit] Oddball: No it ain't. |
