Helping each other to get toys

andytew · 01-02-2008, 08:19 PM

Hi all,

I am not sure whether this has been discussed, but i couldnt find in the forum.

Since we are bunch of TF fans, I believe many of us are still hunting for some old or new toys, I would like to suggest whenever any of the member here finds a place to get toys or planning to buy some toys, why dont we help each other by sharing here. I have seen some members posted some questions asking where to get TF toys, but non of them get answered. I realized this is kind of selfish attitude, i thought this is one of the purpose of this forum- sharing, and not keeping everything to ourselves and showing off what you have collected.

For example, we can arrange a mass order for certain toys, in this way, all members who are interested will have a chance to grab the toya, and the price might be cheaper, all of us can share the shipping cost and taxes, and the organizer may have chance to make some $$$ since he/she is the one who owns the opportunity.

Just my 2 cents, your comments, please!

This is a good suggestion.. but i have known people who have offered this service before and ended up getting fed up...

They ended up being taken for granted. I myself use to be one of those who have contacts and try to help members get good pricing... until i get fed up. When it's a good deal.. there's no appreciation. But when something goes wrong.. fingers are pointing everywhere :)

Honestly... good pricing is given if some effort is being made to form a rapport with a seller.. instead of running around looking for the cheapest price and going to the cheapest to buy with no loyalty to any shop.

I get mine from 1 or 2 shops only and my prices are unbeatable...

Honestly... it's not selfish mentality... but rather people are sick and tired of being taken for granted for the services they offered... y would they wanna bother themselves when what's important is that they can get it cheap for themselves

Cheers!!!
