well you can count me in. I live in tempe. I usually drive far to look for stuff so location isn't really a problem. Hangout and talk joes and trade sounds fun.

well for us Central Phx people there is a card bender at Spectrum WM. I have an idea hwo it might be so I will confront him next time i see him. I was able to get a revision pointing destro ig, hiss driver, and crismon guard. All the snow jobs, armored cc, and snake eyes pointing were bent. I did pick up a se that did not looked bent at the time but I just looked at it again and sure enough the back is bent.
Seriously why do this? |

I seriously doubt there's a card bender out there. I've seen so many cards bent at Walmarts in Tucson for the same revisions that have been claimed to have been bent in Phx. Does he bend in Phx then drive to Tucson, or is there a Joe-bending community? The Anti-Hisstank, maybe? I went to WM on a midnight run to look for wave 8 and found one in box and the box itself was crushed. All the cards were bent. I went to several WMs the next day and they were all crushed in the same manner.
Tucson and Phx WMs get their stuff from the same DC so it's not at all out of the realm of possibility for the entire pallet of them, or the top few layers of the pallet, to have gotten crushed at some point in distribution from China to the store. I haven't seen this at Target or TRU, which makes me believe it's more of an anomoly than an epidemic. |

It was finally confirmed that night I posted finding two sealed revision cases. One was mint, the other was slightly crushed. I opened both. The mint contents were fine. The crushed contents were folded in half (some even in different ways). To be honest, it looked more like water damage/warping than actual pressure-related trauma. The sealed contents somehow looked way worse than the box itself. And it's not just Tucson/Phx. I read ppl complaining about it in TX and FL during the same waves. Oh, and doc, let me know if you need an extra SJ and SE. I ordered the other revision case that has those, so I won't be needing the ones I picked up on my hunt over the weekend. I might even have an extra armored CC. Last edited by n3rf; 09-29-2008 at 04:53 PM.. |
