except that situation isn't always the experience.
-old waves shelf warming
-exclusives all sold out (i missed out on MP11-Thundercracker. never saw it on shelf) or hard to obtain (MP10, missed the 1st batch but managed the 2nd.)
-overpriced
-cost of petrol, parking, other shoppers, cigarette smoke, uninterested or no product knowledge employees. there's probably more that i can't think of now.
they both have their ups and downs but i would hardly say real life shopping is better. at least not in australia :P
my BBTS POL took 11 days to leave the warehousehopefully it gets here by friday so i have the weekend to play with them.
