BC Community Thread For Non-Sightings Chat

[kirbenvost]

Thanks, I asked in the United Vancouver Collectors social group and the general consensus was to start up a thread so I just took the initiative after seeing that Quebec has their own too. It is a lot of fun being part of a community like this so I wanted to keep that while at the same time keeping the mods and other members happy.

lol, it probably will catch up eventually, we already hit 5 pages in the first day. Not that we need to make it artificially bigger or anything.

I support this thread. And that scalper was hilarious

Thank you for starting this thread! It will save me lots of time when people don't go off-topic at the sighting thread. It really bugs me when people go off-topic or post silly comments in the sighting forum. It is better to keep all those other topics elsewhere or here instead. I seriously don't care about people selling ridiculous price on craigslist or scalp the whole freaking Toy's R Us, because I will never buy from them. ALL that I care is only sightings to see what's up with the retail. Although I know there isn't much to sight lately, I am not into the Transfomers Prime line plus the DOTMs is still clogging the shelves.............

Man this scalper talk makes me wonder where was I when it happened? Or I was there and just ignored it all together?

Anyone care to fill in the details with a PM?

I barely even go to the Social Group... I check at time and I feel so lost or the last post date made posting pointless

*I forgot to multiquote

Yeah, I don't think I follow either. Was this about the guy that was selling MP-Megatron or something for like 600 dollars??

I was curious, since I purchase/pre-order most of my TF's online now due to the dry spell in BC.

I get the itch to buy random TF's that are not the main focus to my collection. To prevent that itch, I play with TF's more often than I usually would lately... How often do you play/pose/transform your collection?

I approve this thread! As for scalpers, I've long felt that the Sightings threads should only be to people who contribute to the community, or at least have a post count of 50 or something. To those other BC collectors who don't post much because they don't have sightings to report, I strongly urge you to use this opportunity to introduce yourself We're a friendly bunch, and I love seeing new people come forth to join our little community.

Vohkuhl, most of my figures are in storage boxes due to space constraints, but I do rotate a few out every few months! I find I play with the smaller, fiddly figures the most

Chalk me up as a collector who never sighted much worth posting about... but I do have to say that I came to enjoy the banter in the sightings thread. That's the stuff that congeals a community, so I'm glad to see this thread happen.

I've met a good number of boardies around town over the years, and every single one's been nothin' but gold. Stay awesome you guys.
