Yeah. I pretty much don't care, because I already made up my mind long ago on not buying 3rd party things anymore. To me, they don't worth how much they ask for. I only support Takara and Hasbro, which save me money big time. After all, I don't even consider those 3rd party robot as tf, but knockoffs.

I have. I'm done looking at the threads now, people have picked their sides, and are sticking to it. For me, its been interesting hearing the stories from my retailer friends with their little adventure in dealing with Warbotron/TFC since the beginning. All leading up to what just happened with the "monopoly".

Yep, just finished going through the thread at TFW. Sigh... I wish it surprised me but people are willing to ignore obvious facts to justify their purchases from a company who at the very least has shown gross incompetence and at the very worst are deceivers.

Re: BC Community Thread For Non-Sightings Chat

Thanks for the responses to my Warbotron question everyone. I was kind of curious if this was as huge a deal as some were making this out to be. Before this, the figure and the company hadn't even crossed my radar. I DO like to know who the potential scuzz-buckets are though. In a world full of consumer choices I prefer to deal with people and companies that aren't all about the Bigger, Better Deal. Shafting your retailers doesn't strike me as being conducive to good customer service and I'm not a big fan of poor customer service, nope, not at all.

Hee, I'm such a spammer! Mainly because I don't post much outside of here and the sightings thread I guess.

Wow, I didn't think I'd be this high up the list. It's probably because of the Daft Punk spam haha
