I have missed at least six rounds of Elvis shipments and 2 stocks of moving-eyes cases so far. That's the way the "hunt" goes, and the entire system is built (broken) to work that way.
so in essence what you're saying to any little kid that may come in later and want one of those cars is "tough luck ,kid, I saw them first." you're no better than the scalpers that have denied my son the ability to complete HIS collection. my friend, you are the one who needs to grow up and get over yourself.
I'm a 33-yr old dad and Cars collector, and I'm fine with taking a couple extra products off the shelf even if somebody else's kid comes by in two hours and doesn't find what I bought. It was offered for sale and I took the opportunity and paid for it. I support retail reform to make the purchase opportunities more equitable across the country/world, but in the meantime, I'm playing the game with everybody else.
Get over YOURSELF.
