These are great ideas Trazz.
I hope no one takes this personally..I was involved in several projects like this in the past and I saw solid community members get the backseat to others that were not loyal community members, which isn't fair. Dave and I will discuss and again, continue to take your ideas as Community members to make a system that works. I'm off to harass my local stores after work LOL. |

I have a couple ideas but I'm not sure any of them are foolproof.
The first idea that came to mind was requiring someone to have a successful donation to the pay it forward thread. I participated in that and liked it and most people have the feedback in the thread that they actually came through with the goods. Another idea would be just have the price match the lowest on eBay but have the extra money go to buy freebie dg sets to give away or buy stuff for the pay it forward thread giveaways. I can't speak for everyone but I can handle paying the $60 or whatever if I thought the extra was helping other people or getting these figures to people, but not when its just going to somebody that's just making life difficult for fans just to make money. If the price is that high I doubt scalpers would be able to buy from you and make money. I think the feedback threads is a good quantifier, it doesn't help me though because out of all the PIF thread and trades I've done only 1 person has left me any feedback.(Thanks Lion!) I'll keep thinking maybe something else better will come to me. 124 to go 124 left well your almost there keep posting. lol See what I am doing, I'm trying to get guys who have been on since 2008 with less then 300 post to come out of there shells. I'm not saying you have to have 40,000 post but it couldn't hurt to let the Tank get to know you better. I'm going to stick to my 300 post minimum. Feedback is just one factor it isn't everything. Other providers of DG Joes may have other requirements. |

I have a DG that is literally within biking distance of my house that I am willing and able to make a weekly run to for hunting. Given my own project, I would be remiss if I did not return generosity to this community, and so I volunteer what little resources I have to spare to this endeavor.

Hey guys. My name is Sean and I have actually been helping Tankers get some Dollar Store Joes for the past couple of weeks. And I'm still in the process of doing just that. Last week after purchasing a few sets from a few Dollar General Stores I have a couple of the managers if they could make sure the GI Joes keep coming. Then they actually suggesting that I just tell them how many I need each week and they will be able to order them and hold them for me to pick up. I already have taken orders and my list is getting longer everyday but it's still not more than I can handle. Everyone so far has found that what I'm charging for shipped sets are reasonable and have been willing to pay just that. Here's the thread:
http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...joes-sale.html So I would love to continue helping Tankers get these figures. So far, everyone that I have shipped them to have been happy with their purchases. |

Thanks Sean
Bassitcarlos and I have been talking with managers here and they keep ordering since there is a lot of interest for them. Ok, update TheLongestDay a memeber in the UK is working a reasonable trade with me right now for the DG SE and SS so they are currently pending. |
