Could also be 2 people picked up the 2.Quote:

I remember VERY clearly my own experience with MP-10... called around and a lady from Cannington stated that they had none in stock. I decided to go there myself for the heck of it, and lo and behold there were 3 on the shelf when I got mine. And this was only about 1 hour after my phone call.
I trust member eyewitness reports. I don't trust TRU staff answers.
The staff I spoke to at TRU Joondalup seems to be aware that Soundwave is a "HOT COLLECTOR'S ITEM" and that people were going stir-crazy trying to get them so I'd say he's pretty clued in.
They don't take reserves or orders by the phone unfortunately.
For those heading out north, stay safe on the roads and freeways, the police is out in force enforcing speed limits there.
I can verify that there was one left when I called, the guy said same thing two was sold so left one.Quote:

Then again, would you trust them to have checked the back thoroughly and reconcile numbers with those on their system? If they say it's there, then that's almost certainly going to be true... but if they tell you it's not there, well... grain of salt, is what I'm saying. Or spoonful of salt if the staff is tentative and unsure.Quote:
