Since very few seem to appreciate being given the chance to purchase the exclusives online at the price they were for attendees of the actual convention, I see no reason why HTS shouldn't maximize its profits on those items and just put all their stock of them up for auction next year instead of selling them for a fixed price on the website.
Skip the middle man! HTS can be its own scalper! They can even shill their own auctions for maximum carnage! I want to laugh at nerds having toy tantrums. Some Tankers are like retarded people on fire.

"I want to laugh at nerds having toy tantrums. Some Tankers are like retarded people on fire."
Truth... and...i got zero from HTS I understand the disappointment...and i understand the forums are a nice place to vent. But... I have been reading a lot of the tantrums, and wondering if these guys have "real" problems in their lives? NOT TOY RELATED- reality based life or death, feast or famine type problems, yah know? I'm also wondering what happens if something NOT TOY related ends up not going in their favor, or ends up as a disappointment- how do they react? Some of the tantrums are borderline scary...i want to NOT over think any of it...but in a morbidly fascinating way, it's as if i'm compelled...so i read on, and i wonder on. The SDCC EXCLUSIVES unintentionally act as a sociological experiment...culling the data, and making sense of it all, is anyone's guess...but the whole ordeal so very much acts as a color pallet of and for the collector's mindset, and just overall relation to simple fundamental thinking- it's astounding.

This part is totally wrong. It's not that they don't appreciate the opportunity. They're seriously pissed off when the servers crash & they can't complete the checkout process. And I don't blame them. They have every right to be pissed off when they wasted an hour in front of the computer & still ended up empty handed simply because Hasbro toy shops servers suck. And then when they call customer service they have a message that says they're in a fucking meeting? Are you serious??? I'm not in this one at all. I don't want any of these exclusives but I totally understand what a load of bullshit it all is. They're already pissed, frustrated & disappointed, kicking them when they're down with threads like this isn't very cool. If the page is completely frozen & they can't finish the checkout process, can you really say they were given the chance to purchase anything? It's more like they were given the chance to stare at a frozen computer page for an hour. If that's what they wanted then everybody would be happy.
