Hey everybody, this is my first post here in 9 years!
Anyway, I imagine some of you are fans/ collectors of the GI Joe Classified toy line. I was wondering if any of you have had a similar experience to mine, and if so, could you give me some advice.
My story.
I'm not a serious collector. I hadn't bought a GI Joe figure in over 20 years. I found out about this line this summer (after the first wave had come out.) I was new to collecting so I went to Big Bad Toy Store (the only collectible retailer I knew of at the time) and ordered the whole first wave. That was back in July. I'm still waiting for my order to be filled and shipped. 😡😡😡 Shortly after that I found out about the Target exclusive Baroness...which, of course, sold out before I could even get online. I'm still trying to get one but I'm not willing to pay 3x retail value for it. Then I found out about the Amazon exclusive Storm Shadow. I ordered it back in September. It also has not been filled or shipped. I've inquired about this to both customer service departments and they both said the same thing....they're waiting on shipments from Hasbro.
So I was wondering if any of you have similar stories (misery loves company). Also, if any if you have any advice on how to proceed from here I'd be grateful. I'm frustrated. Frustrated enough to consider cancelling my orders and just giving up on this line. So again, any advice would be appreciated and feel welcome to vent here as well.
