I've seen go up for sell on ebay for 12.00 to 13.00 and folk buy them. I just don't buy from folk that scalp it send a better message that's there no market for that kind of practice. Be patient and you'll find them. The Oakwood Walmart is good place to get what your looking for. They are collector friendly. I've seen a least five B.A.Ts there at one point. Especially our with help ;)
BTW If anyone here is an army builder the Gainesville Walmart pegs are choking with Vipers all with 25th logos and they both DVD packs If anyone lives near Dawsonville the Walmart there has two vehicles packs with Armadillo and Air-chariot and four DVD pack two of each Nothing in the way of singles excpt wave 7

It's not him, looks like he has full cases listed with multiples.

So uh, this is kind of an open letter to whoever's been hitting every Wal-Mart and Target between Decatur and Gainesville and only buying the BATs.
I hate you. I seriously hate you. I hope you get cancer of the knee. It wouldn't be so bad if you didn't leave the entire rest of the wave sitting there mockingly, you know. EDIT TO ADD: Oh. It's this guy. Thanks a lot, you scalping jerkwad. (incidentally, I can safely confirm that Wave 9 has hit the Gresham Rd, Buford, and Oakwood WMs and the Tucker Target, although someone has already gone to the trouble of picking the BATs up.) |

So, I've been doing a lot of work travel and hitting wm's and targets as I go. I raided Knoxville, Cedar Rapids, Chattanooga and have a spare bat and snow serpent for anyone that's willing to come pick them up from lenox rd/85. Ten bucks a piece for all the hunting time I spent on them. I'm interested in a black head destro cp if you've got it. Did finally find the other two cp's in chattanooga yesterday. Tons of wave 9 minus bats in the chattanooga area, plenty of snow serpents but no bats but the one i found.

Glad to see there's interest in a Joe meeting (not that I doubted there would be). The tricky part is figuring out the best location and of course when. I live in northeast GA above Gainesville in a po-dunk town called Alto.
I know we have some gainesville tankers as well as Alpharetta, Dunwoody and Lawrenceville plus the ATL represented (among other places in GA). the question becomes: where IS the best place (city) to meet in that would be within reasonable driving distance for everyone? I'd like to try to keep the drive for everyone within 45 minutes to an hour max if possible since I know gas prices are insane. plus we need an actual location (building, store, whatever) to meet at. A possible suggestion (and again if this is not good for anyone, just let me know) that I have is maybe speaking with Kyle, the owner of the Galactic Quest comic book stores and seeing if we might could do the meeting there (since he has room upstairs in Buford and an open gaming area in Lawrenceville). I don't know what the schedule is for the games that are run on Saturdays (which is kinda the day of the week when I assumed we might meet), but I could contact him and ask. it would also be helpful to get a ballpark average of how many people we think might actually be able to come to better gauge what kind of meeting place we have (so everybody's not all crammed in wherever we go with no breathing room.). again, if anyone has a suggestion feel free to make it. I figured we could meet to discuss our plastic crack addiction, maybe have a "swap shop" sort of element (for those of you looking to trade joes or who might have picked those hard to find ones up and want to meet in person to get the goods and save on shipping). make it sort of like a mini-con or something (plus we might want to figure out what to do for food in case anyone gets hungry). never really done this sort of thing before so I really don't know what kind of details to work out. Just give me some feedback and we'll work on it together and figure it out. also, glad to hear that Tracker and aileyba are okay after the car wreck. that was just insult to injury after not finding any BATs. if it makes any of you guys having a hard time feel any better I've only got one bat and snow serpent (though I have found one more snow serpent and left him for somebody else that might have come thru looking for one) and thats thanks to aileyba picking them up for me. oh and I still having seen BHD (black headed destro) yet either (not that I'm looking to get one).

thanks
Galactic Quest isn't bad idea they even have store in Buford. The Lawrenceville store is bigger. Galactic Quest I even remember reading that one of the store has a movie screen.

BTW, has anyone seen the DC Universe series 3 figures around oakwood or Gainesville? I bought a set for a friend from the Spout Springs Target and would like to pick up a figure or two from that line or myself. Not in rush to do it. just curious if anyone's seen them around so that next week maybe I can pick up one or two of them.

With two store it's a great option if one store full we cam go for the other or even plan for a movie night and watch the mini-series in the DVD packs.

also just wanted to pass long that thanks to a tip from a fellow tanker, I picked up a few BATS tonight. I have two extra ones I'm willing to part with (both are still MOC) since I know a lot of my fellow GA folks are still haing trouble finding them. so if you want them let me know (I'd really like to be able to avoid having to ship them if possible, and if you can pick them up in person I'll let them both go for $16 or $8 each). Also, if anybody else has any ideas about our meeting let me know. |
