So here is some proof that retail employees bend cards on toys just to make sure collectors don't buy them.

I have pulled stuff out of the back for kids,but I make a practice of crimping a corner,just in case, a parent has put their kid up to asking for a car or figure.

One word.

COCK!!!

As a parent and a collector this is fucked up!

I'm sorry but I want to give my kids NICE THINGS!!!!!

If you look after the post from from the guy that's referenced here, you'll see that people mention the fact that this one guy is wrong in what he's doing. (Although not in a polite way)

So, Why are we bringing drama from another site into ours?

I agree Shogi but This is kinda a good posting for those who don;t think store employees don;t bend and thats its solely just other collectors trying to A stop scalping or B keep stuff on pegs to buy later. I do agree we don't need any other site drama but I still think it was a wothwhile post. Just my opinion :>

I think it's valid in that it's someone admitting that they do it.

dat shit pisses me off. what gives dis asshole da right? first off,judging people 4 what they do with their own,and in my case,hard earned money.not all collectors are hoarders, scalpers or act unruly when it comes 2 their particular toyline or lines. and even if they do,theyre still spending money at your place of employment,which puts money in your damn pockets. da whole idea is 2 sell as much merchindise as possible to whoever,not pick and choose who u personally feel should be buying a certain item. rather its my wife buying a new blouse 4 work or me buying a toy wit my grown ass,what buisness is it of yours. as long as im paying 4 it. dis is da main reason i hate target. everytime i buy a joe item there, i get all kinds judgmental glances and snickers. da worst part is dat target is my wifes favorite place 2 shop.

benders only affect us moc collectors;who dnt play wit their collectables might i ad. i feel most toy collectors open their collectables.plus most younger children arent interested in most toy collectables outside of moviebased toys. so what exactly is/are this/these selfabsorbed asshole/assholes accomplishing.
