You call your boss and tell him/her that you're going to be a little late.

I don't hide for myself. If I want a figure, I just buy it. Cash in hand? Nope. I hardly ever have cash in pocket. I just use my debit card. If I am looking, then I am willing to buy.

I DO hide for fellow tankers. I don't know if people still need certain figures, so I'm not going to overextend myself to make a purchase that I may need to return. So I will locate a place to hide the figures and then post in the Florida Sightings thread my find and hiding spot so someone can get it if they wish. If I'm blocking a non-tanker collector or a scalper, I don't really care. Any Floridian tanker that is within driving distance can take advantage of what I hide.

It never ceases to amaze me what I learn here though. I wonder what people are going to think when they see a 31yr old 250lb guy sifting through the My Little Pony section now.

are there that many of you that dont use credit cards yet? or debit cards? I cant remember the last time I used cash. You guys sound like you are 10 years old not having cash with you so you hide the toys. Does your mom take you to the store still? haha

Actually, my mother does still take me as I don't drive due to medical reasons. Some people don't want the hassle of credit cards (I have them and wish I didn't). Debit cards are fine for those who are good with balancing checking accounts but one forgotten purchased could cost 'em more than the toy they bought if it ended up overdrawing the account. Cash is still the best thing to have.
I've never hidden toys before. I've had them hidden for me if the person knew I could get there in a reasonable amount of time(say that day or the next). Coming from an area of rural Ohio that hardly ever sees new stuff in this line, as many of us have seen, it's easy to hide things if they're going to come back for it or if they know of a local tanker or someone else who needs it. The only time I would figure hiding a Joe or other toy is wrong is if they're just hiding them out of maliciousness. Hiding a figure so no one could ever buy it and not telling anyone about it.

I didnt realize people were spending their very last dollar on GI Joes so I guess having cash is the way to go for people that cant control themselves.

And your thinly-veiled contempt for what other people do with their money is so helpful.

The thing about this is when a MOD shows up, the anger subsides and people can debate without attacking each other. I would advise you to put the clothes back on, that is just wrong.
