Mainly online. Mainly E-bay or Guru-planet.com, maybe small joes or amazon. I'll buy what I can find at TRU, Target, Ross or other brick and morter places.

Its been awhile since I have seen anything WORTHWHILE at retail...I used to do ALL of my shopping at retail, then I started a new job that I work 55 hours+ a week at, so I have little time to "hunt", lately if its something new I will either pre-order, but I have also done a lot of trading lately to get what I want.

1. Online (BBTS, Matty, HTS, TRU, Amazon, etc.)
2. Brick n' Mortar (Target, WM, TRU, LCS, etc.) Online and 'in store' is very close margin. 3. Trading. Mostly small, individual pieces. 4. Auction (eBay). Only if it's a good deal.

1. BBTS for 3.75" Joes, which are the bulk of my collecting. Club for their exclusives.
2. Target and TRU for Marvel Universe or DCUC, which I buy a lot less of than I once did. 3. My local comic book store orders Sideshow Joes for me and usually meets or betters the retail price (though they don't deal in exclusives). 4. Very rarely I find something in a Wal-Mart.

New stuff I get at retail if I can and/or order it online if I have too.
Vintage stuff I mostly order on E-bay. Sometimes I may order from one of the site sponsors if they have what I am looking for and for a good price. |

You should've had a fifth option in you poll:
5. Neither, I just sit on the Tank and whine about not being about to find anything in retail. |

I usually am patient and wait for retail. If I know the stores around me are going to have clogged pegs for some time, then I will do a preorder. Evilbay will be my last choice if i missed out on a figure.

Here's another new poll. This time [if it hasn't been done already], I thought I would tap into Tankers minds on how where we purchase most of our Joe collectibles. Not too mention, I get rather annoyed with Tankers whining about not finding toys when most of us know why they are so hard to find.
I get mine in stores, rarely online, though I'm thinking of buying more online or just giving up on it altogether. I love Joe too much to do that but it spare me the stress of endless fruitless hunts. |
