    Why doesn't TRU Oz follow TRU USA and limit 1 per customer? All it takes is for one Scalper to clean out an entire store of its very limited stock.

    It's definitely going to be harder to get hands on one from non-NSW stores given the word is out there.

    Reserved one, mate reserved 2 which was lucky coz the box was edge crushed & no available replacement. All reserved. Another guy who wanted 2 but reserved one bought the extra crushed one. His lucky day.

    Heh, that was me! I actually reserved two over the phone, but only allowed one . Kid at the counter said something about only allowing one per person cos it was so popular.

    So yeah, my lucky day cos I was opening one anyway

    Didn't recognize you as it's been a while. I did thought you look familiar. Glad it went to another member. We were going to have my mate's replaced but all were reserved.

    A few people here reserved 2 and some bought 2.

    It'd be nice if all the stores had a purchasing limit... but I guess that wouldn't stop someone from just going back in over and over.
    Scalpers will be determined enough to find a way... especially if any have been seeing how much we've been wetting our pants in anticipation for this figure (40 thousand views just on this topic alone).

    I thi a password facility for these types of theads could be a handy idea... Only members and genuine collectors allowed. That would at least slow the scalpers down so the real collectors could get ahead of the game...

    Or a preorder system were you leave a 20% for example deposit & then collect from your nominated store. At present, TRU have no intent of implementing either.
    Would i give preference to our members who contribute and are active here access to information like an MP release over those who use the site for their own benefit without contributing? Absolutely.

    just rang Knox, was told 1-2 weeks, but after mentioning that I had heard they will be in on Monday she was like "oh yeah well if they get the delivery unpacked in time then probably Monday" LOL.

    So after asking if I can get one held she took my name and number and added it to the "customer logbook" and told me they will ring when it arrives. Just hoping that this means one is on hold for me as she didn't specifically say!
