Heres what usually happens when Im shopping for figs: I'll have the figs I want, ready to leave. Then like some really hot girls will walk by, and of course, I'll end up throwing the figs onto the closest shelf I see, as if I never had them. Then when they get past me, I'll go get the figs back. I'll end up seing another kid in my aisle looking at MY figs....... I'll be shopping, and get the figures I want, then some little kid comes in the aisle with his mom looking for a figure. Of course, I have the figure hes looking for, then later I'll feel all bad about it.... I do like, some James Bomd moves through the aisles making sure that nobody is trying to get my figures (not joking at all). Pretty much all of the above ^^^^ If your that afraid of being caught buying figures just tell them you are shopping for your little brother, thats what I used to do untill I learned not to really give a crap about what people think.

Ahh yes,yesterday when me and my girlfriend were at target picking up some figs(she collect to) i saw 1 numbered big show which was what my gf was looking for.I grab it hand it to her then some 7 or 8 year old kid screams at me and his mom comes. She starts saying you two are to old to be playing with figures you should be more worried about other stuff. I replyied you kid is to old to screm like a little crap when he doesnt get what he wants and this a collectors edition that he will just rip open and destory. The kid then grabs the figure of my girlfriends hand at this point im really pissed off so i grab it back from him and he crys the mom then calls secruity on me after we explain what happend she ended getting banned from the store

If anyone is actually embarrassed to buy something that makes them happy, they should rethink collecting altogether.
-And I've never had a problem.

The best thing I ever saw was at Toys R US , shipment of Tickle Me Elmo. A huge pallet of them came in and all hell insued. Two Ladies went at the last two , one had it in her hand and turned around. I swear on my Mom about this. The 2nd lady grabbed her hair forcing the other lady to turn around (Cursing was going on during this whole thing). A huge punch to the face by the lady who had her hair pulled. Security went ape crap and neither lady got their Elmo.

Like when i see one of my mates that HATES wrestling, i just throw them away or say "Yeah its just my cousins Birthday in a few days" lol I remember the day that i was buying some RA figures like a year ago at K-Mart. And the chick at the counter "She was hot, probably in her 20's" Said to me "Are these all for you?" i was like yeah, then she came up with some smart ass remark with Ha how sad. So i just told her, to hurry up and serve me so i can see your head manager. lol anyway went told the manager, i came back a week later and she hadn't been working there since. hahaha i feel like an bunghole for doing that now though lol

I would feel bad too, but people need to be a bit more considerate... so she deserved it.
