What's w/ this 202 and Gilbert store getting so many wave 5 shipments back to back so quickly?
For the record, I've never been to this store but maybe I should add it to my list in the future because I'm not finding anything new at my typical stops.
I found a guy in Mesa on eBay selling Wave 5 figs for $15-$20 each (shipping extra). I guess when you're making that % of profit, it make sense to be driving all around town buying them up in the spirit of a free market society.
Well, I'm happy to say that I have completed my Wave 4 and Wave 5 "complete set" needs, so I can wash my hands of the dirty...for a couple of weeks/months, at least.
BTW, Stygian, I read your comparison of buying figs to porn. I've had that same conversation w/ the wife! Dead on analogy.
EDIT: Oh, and just in case, I got my sets through my preorder (aka Back up Plan) w/ BBTS (NOT the eBay guy). Paid about $.25 more per figure than I would have @ Target.
