Chris Neal's booth is consistently the best booth of the entire convention for sales of ARAH stuff. He is the one I got the 100% complete and unbroken Night Striker from. I also got all the Sears Dreadnok stuff from my haul this year. He even had a 2009 Canadian JoeCon set, the one with the HATE tank. Granted it was $700, but he had it.

Just got my POC Wave 4 Destro in off ebay and he is going to become an opener for me. This is exactly why I do not ship carded figures in envelopes! I am very disappointed in this as I feel that I paid too much for it as it was.
On a side note, I got my Hammer in, love it! Made my day! Just need to pick up a few small parts but for $20 its not bad!

I use padded envelopes all the time, but not for carded stuff! They are fine for loose figures and small parts. But only a moron puts a carded figure in a padded envelope and thinks it will be okay. I love how he wrote "don't crush" on it as if that was going to help. That is an invitation for the mailmen to crush them.

The booth you got that X-19 from was Chris's booth, I saw you then LOL Did you also get the Equalizer there? I saw a few with the boxes. I picked up mine before the showroom opened from the old guy near the front with all the parts and the Sky Raven. Nice score and Chris's booth had the best prices! What did the Condor run you?

On my way out I spotted an SUV with said contraband in plain sight. No security around and almost no one in the lot. Orlando is a nice place but not THAT nice! I would of at least concealed them with a beach towel or something.

Yah it does suck. I messaged him on there so let's see what he/she does for me. I will just have to get another Destro today to make up for the damaged one I wasted money on. I am not normally an opener so its a waste to me. I have plenty of ARAH figs already open to play with so I just keep all the newer stuff carded.

Got a prompt reply. It must be nice to have a supplier of figs lol its also hard for me to believe that the seller has had one complaint from shipping the figs this way.

Dear sirt8669,
Hi Tony. I am very sorry about the figure and surely the damage was due to rough handling by the courier. I have shipped very many MOC figures this way, Joes, sports figures, etc. and I have had only 1 other complaint. This was from a long-time repeat buyer who said that his new mailman forced the package thru his door mail slot. Nonetheless, I want you to be totally satisfied with this transaction, so I am offering a replacement. If you can wait 10-14 days, I will order a Destro from my supplier and mail this to you free of charge in a box to increase the chances it gets to you in perfect condition (this is not 100% guranteed as I have personally received items in crushed boxes myself). If you accept this offer, pls send me back the loose figure, accessories and file card after you receive the replacement. OR if you wish to keep the figure as is, I will give you a 50% refund of your payment. As you suggested, in the future, I will probably offer as an alternative, shipment of MOC figures in boxes, at an additional charge.
