 Angel on one shoulder, Devil on the other ... So, I go to the PO and there are a pile of little packages from Frank K. -- Hooray!
Open them up ...
1 - Pickle Bigaro - Yum.
2 - Custom Grus/Prodon set - Wow.
3 - Purple Usagi - Love it.
4 - Pickle Bigaro - ("Weird -- That has a sorta almost familiar ring to it, somehow!")
Yep, Frank sent me 2 Pickle Bigaros.
Immediately, the little red guy with the trident and horns appears on one shoulder - "Frank's already said he can't track his order histories after the shipments are made. Besides, maybe you just ordered and paid him twice for the Bigaro by accident? Or, probably this is intentional, as a reward for sending Frank your thousandth Kozik-direct dollar! At the very worst, this is one of the 4 or 5 pieces designated for screwups -- It's never gonna be missed."
The little angel on the other shoulder doesn't say anything, blast his feathery narrow ass, he just gives me that sad, disappointed-cocker-spaniel look. I hate that.
Then the devil says "Hey, what the Hell are you emailing Frank for? Stop that! Are you crazy? I mean it, you stop that typing this instant!"
Sigh. Damned conscience is nothing but a chronic nuisance. Ah well - If, by some chance, mini-Beelzebub was right in one of his theories, I may have a spare Pickle Bigaro on the RxH trading block soon. More likely though, it's going back to Frank. I doubt that 'declining to be a thief' even earns me good Toy Karma!

I will take the second! i was bumped off the pre-order list and i think i should get this since i didnt whine about it haha. 
Sounds like it was a mistake though so maybe it will find its way to the right owner.

Or there is a person out there that actually paid for a Bigaro and didn't get it!!! Maybe the person before or after you on the mailing order list? Think about that.

I never got my evil (Frank just ended up refunding me) so you should wait and find out who didn't get theirs and sort it out.

If he can't keep track of what he sends out...then why should you?
Just keep it and be glad he didn't send you any stupongers....

Miami; is this thread still on track? Did you return the bigarao? If honesty is a question, as it should be, pm me a deal so Frank gets paid and you derive some benefit. In the meantime I must go back and re-index my still bagged SDCC loot.
Hmm, no sense being subtle or anything, oh well.

Miami ended up buying it so he could use it as a trade item for another piece he wanted, so that worked out great in the end. I flowed Muton one of the 2 I had kept for myself, as he has much Love for Bigaro so that worked out good as well. Flynn's is sitting here I need to go over to the store as he has Stomps for me.
Some months I ship like 200 boxes so a 1% fuckup rate is, I think, acceptable, I always try to do my best to fix any problems.
Stupongers RULE! COLLECT THEM ALL!

'S all good or at least better than average...I think somebody here might have one for me. (EDIT: Ooops, damn missed again.)
A lotta good pcs. Mr. Kozik! Although my 10" labbit w/ the lift-off top will always be one of the faves. Gonna have it buried with me, nestled in the crook of my arm. Scare some pot-hunter from the future out of their shorts, heh.
