yeah bro, sorry to say but I'm 20-30 minutes north of you and I picked them up on Friday. With most of the releases at Ross, TJMAXX, and Marshalls if you don't get there the day they hit the area, you don't get them. Between the scalpers and collectors in the area, you have got to jump on it as soon as you see it posted and even then it is usually too late. I usually post a message of a find from my phone as I'm leaving the store as to give everyone here a heads up if it hasn't already been posted.
I hope in your case they just haven't put out their stock but to be honest, that area is known to have a bunch of scalpers. I bet that if you don't find them in the store, you will find them being sold at the flee market. |

Big score today. A guy in Largo listed a Defiant for sale for $80 on Craigslist. It looked dirty but in good shape otherwise. I went to check it out today. It has a few missing and broken parts as can be expected, but it has a lot of the hard to find parts. It has some yellowing but not terrible. Overall is is really good shape. Best of all, I got him to sell it for only $50. Of course, I already have a Defiant. So I am going to clean this one up and decide what to do with it. I might be bringing with me to Mutt Meet.
I hit a Ross in Clearwater today, nothing there at all in terms of wave 5 vehicles. |

I have been very lucky to find what im looking for on the pasco/pinellas county-line. From 25th to POC I have found them all. If you live in the area of pasco/pinellas there shouldnt be a problem finding what you are looking for.
