So, because you want this spot all to yourself, you continue to post crap like this. This is supposed t be a "sightings" forum where tankers help other tankers. We need to create a forum thread for people like you called the "one-way" thread

this spot is a public store, I am not the only going to the tru's near me. it is a sighting. I saw them at tru. I could have 3 tru's that are all the same distance from where I am at. there are a lot of posts with just a store and nothing more. obviously it bothers you. there is no one who has been posting here over the last few week on the sighting's thread are within 20 miles of where I am at. there is only so many tru's, so figure it out. even better, stay and post about Merced.

Okay you two, knock it off. This is getting out of hand and we don't need a MOD stepping in. The important thing is that these are finally hitting the West Coast, eventually they'll reach a TRU near you. This "I gotta have NOW" syndrome is not worth getting all work up over for toys. If rollcall doesn't want to say where he's seeing them that's his choice.

It is because it is either Tustin TRU or Mission Viejo TRU where he specifically searches. When you did your Mission Viejo outing days ago and he responded it did hit a nerve for him because that is his spot where no one searches other than him. A lot of the joe collectors in the area have given up on the hobby so moral of the strory check Mission Viejo and Tustin TRU.

It is nice that you help personal friends out in the big stashes you get but not everyone in Southern California knows you. The idea of a sighting is to update the entire community not just your buddies on where something was found. A few posts back you showed some hot wheels that you picked up. Those looked cool and if I was interested may want to pick up. Unfortunately you gave no indication where you got it. Do I really need to PM you guys to get the answer? As for the "I need to get it now" syndrome excuse, please no more excuses use the sighting forum as it was intended for. Last edited by rhodium1977; 10-20-2013 at 10:10 PM.. |

Wow. I remember when there used to be only rare postings on this thread. I understand both points of view on posting locations and not posting them. Ultimately, this is a public forum that is not policed by the anti-scalper authorities (which sadly don't exist). As Southern California is the Coruscant of the Scalper Empire, posting exact locations might alert the non-collector readers of this thread where to go. At the same time, a web of verifiable collectors helping each other should be what any online community aspires to be (despite the competitive nature of this hobby). Since we do not have that degree of secure openness in this thread, and have not really since I've been a reader, I usually ask people to PM if I see something and don't post the precise location. That said, I saw and bought GI Joe Trooper (blue variant) from wave 1 at Rosemead Kmart last night. I also bought a Red Ninja. The rest of the case was left there on the pegs.

If more people took responsibility in that they troop build rather than blame it on some made up imaginary scalpers that would be great. Troop build all you want. All I ask is after your buddies pick up what they want then simply post where you got the stuff. Joe collectors anymore are as bad as hot wheels collectors in their paranoia. I hate to break it to you but GI Joe aint that hot. There is a reason why they are not being carried by the majors. By the way, thank you maradona for correctly giving a sighting.
