I recieved the BBTS email that my pre-orders of wave 3, and the legions packs had arrived yesterday. I should have cancelled them both because I have multiples of all of it by now, but I never did. I went to check my pile of loot after reading the email, and was a bit shocked to find that it said PAYMENT DECLINED. Now I'm not a rich man, but I had a little scratch in the bank, and at least enough in savings to cover this purchase I thought. I was about to log on to my bank website, when the phone rang. It was a bank loss specialist who wanted to check with me about some suspicious purchases...long story short, some scum bag internet trash ball got my account number and ran it completely dry making purchases at all these crazy websites. They had to freeze the account and open an investigation. Worst of all I have no way to complete my BBTS order. Jeez-this is the kind of stuff that you think will never happen to you. I'm blown away. How the hell can people just get and use your bank account #??? I never want to order anything online again, or leave my $ in a bank for that matter. Sorry for the rant, but this whole situation has me floored. Has anyone dealt with this before, are there ways to avoid this in the future?

Safest way to doe business on the internet is use a credit card that does not hold you liable for unauthorized purchases. Ive had some scumbags do the same and ran $800 in charges in FRANCE!! WTF. The credit card company called me and asked me if i was in france. LOL. Needless to say they froze my credit card, sent me a new one and did not hold me liable for the 800 dollars.

That sucks Fridge. I hope that the bank clears it up so you don't have pay for the charges. The people who do this crap are the worst kind of scum.
Back on topic today was a good day for toys, but not so good for other stuff like two broken law mowers and the possibly of some broken water pipes. 1x X-Men Stealth Beast (has the current comic face) 1x Stalker (green version) 3x Cobra Trooper (I think I posted on here that I would only buy one more but after seeing all three I couldn't help myself. I hope the collector over at YoJoe.com that lives in that town got one somehow. I told myself I would leave one the next time just in case. If not there should be some there when wave 3 rev. 1 arrives.)

My wife got me a Cobra Officer and a no-logo Zartan. I was surprised my local Target had them. Hopefully they are stocking up for Christmas and all this scalping will go away.
Has anyone noticed, with the exception of Yellow Stalker, the prices of the figures on eBay have kept a lot of the auctions from having any bidders?

Well I got my BBTS preorders today! I got wave 2 and 3. I'm very pleased with the figures. My first instinct was to rip them open. I didn't do it, I'm leaving them carded for awhile before I open them. As for the interesting figures:
Stalker came green. I'm glad because I already have a yellow in transit. I also like the green better. Shipwreck came with the anchor tat. He's one of my top 3 favorites at the moment. Zartan came with face color ability. The package does not say that he can change colors. He also has the crazy eye. Buzzer is my least favorite at the moment. I love dreadnoks, but his shirt is awful. He has 4 large blue paint spills on his shirt. It makes me not even want to look at him. Lady Jaye looks much better in person. As of right now my favorite 2 are Stalker and Firefly. However Beach Head is looking better everytime I look at him. As for Serpentor, I still not sure how I feel about him. |
