Am I the only one who finds this just as bad as bending up the cards?

By a fair shot, I mean the chance to get out and hunt. I know what the reality is. I just talking about ideally. I also understand the economics and the business. I've been in it (officially) for 18 years. I believe that limiting customers to one each of a "collectable" item as Target does is a nice idea in theory, but there are easy ways to get around it. As far as my "Marxist" ways, I have a standing offer to trade 1 to 1 any figures I can find for anyone. In the "Joes for Everyone" thread. If everyone read it, applied and used it, there would be NO situation where people didn't get what they wanted here. The simple fact is that about four people made trades, then they forgot about it. Either everyone has everything they want, no one wants to bother with the mail, no one new NOTICES the thread, or no one cares anymore.
At least I offered a solution.
As far as the fouled up cards are concerned, I don't have a lot more to say. If I find new figs, I open them.
