I used to have a roomate after college that would take his paystub to a local card room and blow it in one night, and then write bad checks to cover his portion of the bills. He'd max out credit cards, and deposit bad checks at ATMs so he could withdraw on them...
One day, a HUGE guy in a black suit and sunglasses came knocking on the door looking for him. Turns out the "people" from Harrah's Casino were looking for him... he kinda disappeared after that.

This is only the 2nd time I've ordered from TT - and both times I've had to call my order in!

heh, the address portion was below the payment info and i didn't notice until after submitting the order that i hadn't updated it in my profile ... so i ended up having to call them to fix it afterwards. the guy i spoke to in the warehouse said they sold out in about 3 minutes.
their site is a little awkward to use, but if there's ever any problem with it the people i've talked to are all very friendly and stuff always gets taken care of in the end.

I'm not trying to be an ass and rub it in but the picture on Toy Tokyo makes me even happier I got one. I hope everyone here that wanted one got one.

Ouch!
Camp out on Span John! I'm so lucky I came back from lunch when I did. First checked Span, then checked TT and then felt the beads of sweat start to pop as I waited and waited and waited on-line and then finally picked up the phone.

Did they have a pic of them up or was it phone sales-I kept looking during my breaks of watching Bleach last night but didnt even see the pic there..

Fuck I just got all worried and phoned to check and it sounds like I got one!
I'm so glad to, span does not seem very international ordering friendly so I would have probably been shit out of luck if that was my last option.

TT's online checkout freakin' sucks big time.
And then the website never displays real-time stock so you can't trust that.
S7's checkout is so smooth it's scary, they make it so easy to give them money.

With the ranks increasing here everyday I wonder how many are going to be "not feeling it" later on...
Personally I'd just assume only serious collectors pick this stuff up considering the limited numbers but then I guess the argument is how do you know till you tried your first one...
I'm just trying to figure out how worried I should be about getting some of these new colorways...yesterday and today’s blow out makes me worried.
It just kind of bums me out seeing some the SB OG crew missing out...

Hey shit happens-Everyone has to start somewhere and try out a fig..That was more of a joke about KR than anything..It's a huge excuse for the regular flips there to say"i'm not feeling it" or "my cat got run over by my grandma and i have an $8,000 vet bill"-lol

Bundt cake rules. We're going to make a couple, cut them in half, stick 'em back together end to end - and have a slithering snake cake for my two year old's birthday.
