Side note, customer service with FP and PC over the phone is always great. I remember calling PC one time and the guy kept calling mate and laughing. I asked him if he was laughing at my accent he said no but then burst into laughter again :rofl: I told him it was ok if he was laughing at me and to just get it all out so we could continue talking. So he did :rofl: He was very helpful though, told him g'day mate when it was all said and done :lol:

I just called to see what was up with them charging me twice and I listened to the voicemail :rofl: I did the math wrong and their CS isn't open for another four hours. Wonder what we Americans sound like to them :wow:

Female Australian accents are sexy AF :smokin
 
I gotta start looking into some case/stand for my small, slowly (outside of last week) growing collection. Anything y'all recommend?
 
:smh:

The music POPs always make me want the Hendrix one.. and then make me think "they should make a Mac Dre one :pimp: "

I still dont think this is anywhere near "sneaker game"

but the reason I hate this article so much because pop collectors are the biggest hypocrits on earth.

you know why i don't like this article or people who complain about this... because i have yet to see anyone sell their pops (that are more than 4 months old or over 20 ppg). For Retail + shipping.
A lot of people want to complain about flippers, but no one wants to sell there old pops for what they paid. But yet claim they want it's value. at one point all pops were only worth 10 or 15. a lot may have paid more for a pop but that was your prerogative.

so it's laughable when i see articles or people complaining. but no one is looking at funko and demanding better stock or more ways to cop desired pops.

Is it because they refer to resellers as collectors as well? It's the same story with kicks. If you're a "Sneakerhead" you buy for the love but if you flip your kicks your a reseller but no one wants to be known as a reseller.

And yeah no one is selling their pops that have jumped in value for retail + ship because that would be dumb. Unless your doing it for a friend, there's nothing wrong with making a profit. Everybody gotta eat B. Peoples complaint about resellers (because I hate the word flipper since i think of that damn Dolphin) is the fact that they buy out stock simply to make money and in doing so take away a person who truly collects' chance to obtain a pop for box price.

Case in point a member of the group i mod was posting all over in groups talking about it was his first time going on Sunday and what were tips, yadda yadda yadda only to see him post this morning all his pickups for market resale price. Like cmon man. Like he took away someone's chance to get a limited pop so he can make some funds. Nothing wrong with that but he's not a collector.

And complaining to funko would make no sense. Pop values are like shooting stars you don't know which are gonna shoot up or crash out. and even tho they think that making limited pops for collectors is happening they should have seen the eBay listings at 9-10pm after Fundays.

Yeah maybe this is far from sneaker game 2.0 but when I find myself lined up in a mall or on the sidewalk sitting in a chair in the wee hours of the morning, can't help but feel a sense of deja vu.

it also happens with practically every hobby out there. You got flippers, limited items, and all that fun stuff. Its more like "sneaker game" (I hate that term) 38299192848

WSM10, if you can find a Doctor Strange that would be awesome. They were all out here in the first hour the employees told me here.

So all my GS here were out of Dr. Strange besides one and that one can't find the last one they have(what?), but they took my info on him and said he's mine if they find him. If that doesn't work, I should have an extra coming to me in the mail and as soon as I get him, he's yours for cost+shipping or trade. I'll keep you updated and please do the same for me if you manage to grab him before I do. Sorry it's such a disaster for you on him.

The pop collector in me says fantastic. I'm really glad you got him and that's a legit grail right there.

The Pac fan in me says I can't ever get that guy. [emoji]128512[/emoji]

Hahahahha i can understand that, but I like Pac as well
 
My Grail is nothing crazy at all, just a personal favorite from one of my favorite shows headless Hershel :smile:
 
People also love to complain about resellers yet would do the same(buy stock out) if they had the same opportunities in front
