Had my backpack stolen with wallet, con pass, float & shake set, RDwing, cigs, sketch book, you name it, it got jacked. All I had was 310.00 bucks cash in pocket. So I stood in line for 4 hours and met some really cool peeps and was able to at least replace my RDwing and get it signed by pushead as well as purchasing the USUGROW rebel ink. "Someone" fairly well known saw the frustration in my eyes as I watched the HP jars of pus and other super sick stuff be sold off so fast you would think it was a free food drive so "they" did something completely mind blowing. This "person" actually scored me a USUGROW book signed, and 3 USUGROW T's (one was for sale when he was signing) plus a really *itchen Damnedron T. I felt extremely grateful and am going to send a nice donation of cash to this individuals liaison wether they want it or not. This made it the best con ever for me because even without ID or money really, the skeletal carnival crew treated me good and got me my spot (after certain ID verifying questions were asked of course) in line. started crappy, ended happy. S7, Skeletal Crew, SB, you folks truly are down for your fans/collectors!!! I know some things in the photos arent JP related and Im sorry for that but this is literally my entire con haul so Im showing all that I have.

Thanks,
Matt

Sorry to hear of your misfortune, but glad that there are decent human beings left in the world who will step up & act on it. My applause goes out to this mystery "person."

I know your frustration eLOCO. at 2 seperate points in the con someone tried to pick up my shopping bag from directly in front of me. the nerve. I had a large white bag full of stuff. neither of these guys had white bags, they both looked like total douches and when I said something they were both very apologetic.... the 2nd guy I had to give the business to for a minute because there was no way in hell he could have thought his small black bag was my white bag. theives!

great scores, eLOCO, glad your trip got better because of a friend.

Thanks much. My time at the con was a love-hate relationship. I love to hate theives. Seriously though It meant alot to me that "the powers that be" felt my pain and actually went out of their way to try and make my experience a great one which they did. Yeah Im bummed about the figures I lost but I believe that the set can be replaced. My CC's were cancelled almost immediately, no fraud was permitted. Next year Im punching any A-Holes who even look at my bags (unless in a S7 or Pus line of course). The support through this sub-culture from fans to artists was just humbling for me and I truly see now why you folks are so protective of this community. The collectors here actually care about this movement and try to commerade with each other to tighten that community so outsiders or oppertunists cant screw you guys/ladies over on a release or a fraud type crime (been using search).

With much respect,
Matt
