Thru the back, I just slide it out when I need to mess with it. It slides pretty easy on carpet. The case was just sitting in the back of my shop and my boss one day asked if I wanted it because he needed the space.
Nice! The last few times I've gone to REI I've seen two display cases like that sitting in the garage - I've thought about asking if they're free for the taking but (a) I don't know where I'd put it and (b) I don't know how I'd get it home.
Not quite whole, but just unpacked. And yes, the packers did a crappy job and some pieces are scuffed. Have been too busy elsewhere to do a full inventory, but I'm curious as to how their claim department will deal with scuffs on a custom or super hard to find toy...
I haven't looked at everything individually yet, but no custom or very rare piece seems to have suffered a horrible fate. I was talking hypothetically... but even more common toys might be a pain to find. To make a long story short, I wasn't home (hadn't been for months) when they packed. I was assured that every piece would be packed individually and that if I packed anything myself, it would be unpacked and repacked by the company to follow their standards. I brought as many pieces with me as I could (siamese, cococroc, etc.), but in the end, there were too many. The packers used paper, which did a surprisingly ok protection job on most, but some toys with sharp horns or tails or what not tore through it and rubbed on boxes. And they packed many smaller toys together. Sigh. Ah well. They're just things, I'll live.
I hear this all the time and never listen and they never unpack it. They just mark it down that it was already packed so they are not responsible for that particular one. Just saying. Hope all is well.
Bummer. Sorry to hear about toys scuffed in the move. I hope you have a toy inventory. I am with living dead- There's no way anyone but me would pack my toys.
My guess is that they won't. I am sorry to hear about any damage, but in the end, I just come to expect these kind of things. Scuffs add a bit of character to a vinyl And, think of it this way, a scuffed toy, is always better than none at all. Hope you are settling in to the Hammer well! You'll be missed around Montreal
petitetoilonrouge sorry to hear about the scuffs. Its one thing if you cause a scuff but if someone else does its really hard to swallow.
not quite whole, but pretty much every toy are in here. this my "i dont have a life" room, my bed, desk and my whole collection are in the same room. I still need to buy, whats happen next?
I want to see something like this on "Auction Hunters" or "Storage Wars" and see what they would do with the figures and what they would get for some of them.
you need to replace all that nonsense with this system: or this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=naM_YHnnDLQ&NR=1 voila!
Well when you really own a store and sell on a message board to avoid fees, you really have to maximize the space you have.
haha, the place i work have something like this. i might install some wall mount shelf like choon does to display more
Once I ship everything off, and put up what i forgot about, this will be it for the vinyl stuff I own. Top shelf: the shelf below:
Thanks, Scott I'm trying to hold on to these and move foward. I think I can be OK just collecting Tokoji until some things change for me. It's hard enough finding some of them so it'll keep my collecting bug satisfied. bonemask: I still have the first Bako release up for sale. If it doesn't move for what I want, then I'll hold on to it. but I'm trying to keep it simple.
