Very true. Personally, I always assume that if I help people out when I am feasting that I will be helped out in turn when it is famine time here. That said, after helping people out with wave 5 vehicles and black hisses, I've recieved a lot of PM's asking for help with these, but now that I missed them at my local store, I'm just hoping I'm not foolish believing in my "toy karma" theories. lol.

So will we still have a glut of black Hiss at Walmart hitting clearance next year?

^ Truth #2. I completely agree. Hence why I've offered some extras I've found to a 'Tank member who hooked me up with a 25th Clear Wraith earlier this year.

Now I'm not advocating for paying $40, but please use some perspective here. How much were people willing to pay two weeks ago when these were still canceled exclusives. Now people are finding them at Ross for about 1/2 the original retail price. But here's the thing, quantities are still limited, and access is also limited. Not to mention that by next week, they'll be gone pretty much for good.
I picked up a bunch of Black Hiss tanks and Fury's last time and sold them all for cost. I don't mind helping, but time and effort have a value too, and that always seems to be lost among all the PMs demanding these kinds of things for practically nothing. |

I'm not paying the tank to sell my stuff and to hang out talking about Joes, but yet someone is putting time an effort into maintaining this site, maybe the tank should charge a fee to be apart of this site. They do it because it is something they like to do, just as i pick stuff up for others because i am already there for myself, I didn't just go to buy stuff for others an either does anyone else.

The greed comes from both sides, however. Yes we have folks looking to turn a profit, but we also have folks acting like you're the world's biggest scalper if you ask for full price (including tax and Paypal fees) and exact shipping. Do know how often you get: "but they're $11.99, why are you asking for another $8 to ship?"

I've been laid up for days from being sick and having a root canal. On top of that I have no Ross so no Green Range Viper for me. Oh well. Glad you guys(or most) got a great score...............
