 Request about Price Stickers
Dearest Super7 store superstars,
Can you not tag web orders with price stickers?
They are a I FART A LOT to strip off and remove.
You may ask why I would remove them. Well, it's embarrassing to have someone, outside of the scene, see how much I pay for some stupid toy.
Besides, think of the OCD types who save the staples from the header cards. They must freak out over a price tag on the bag or tearing it off only to find unremoveable fragments.
I know this is at the bottom of the action items barrel but I thought I'd throw it out there....

 Re: Request about Price Stickers
a helpful hint is to bust out the hair dryer to get them off. if you heat it, it should come right off with no residual pieces

 Re: Request about Price Stickers
Peter...I am with you. I am trying to figure out a way to do this without causing the staff extra heartache. SEnd me an email with any operational ideas and I will consider them.
I am getting close to knowing how to do this but I am not there yet.

Glenn For stickers I want to remove easily later on I first stick them to my arm before applying them. It picks up a little oil and a couple skin cells making them less sticky, of course I don't have much hair on my arms.

A few years ago my girlfriend and I were in some toy store where a couple of 8 year old kids were looking at the retro 12 inch GiJoes. My gf muttered, "I can't believe boys are playing with dolls now." And as we walked away I heard one of them respond, "These aren't dolls, they're highly trained killing machines!." Cracked me up.

That is pretty funny. Those of us that did have a GI Joe as kids might know the history behind GI Joe. I got my first GI Joe when he was already a member of the Adventure Team. He started out as a military figure then became an adventurer and that is how I think of him. Between our family and our cousins, we had a few GI Joes, Bullet Man, and the Atomic Man....as well as the non-Hasbro Six Million Dollar Man. Ah....those were the days

I had the vehicles as well. The Troubleshooter, the space capsule for Maj. Steve Austin. So much good nostalgia. I spoil my daughter with toys because I want her to have those memories.

 Re: Request about Price Stickers
I always use goo gone to remove price stickers. You can use it on cardboard as well without damaging anything but the sticker.

conqueror wrote: people keep the fucking staples!? Yes, I just re-bend them into the header and stuff it into the bag. COMPLETE means COMPLETE with me  S7's stickers aren't so bad, I hardly ever have a problem just stripping them off the bag with any damage. Usually a corner of the sticker is popped up and I work it on down from there. RxH has hardier bags so it's easier with them, but than things like Anraku and SB, thinner bags, UGH. But I still work my magic thanks to years of retail experience.
