Have you ever been the 1st to find & report someth

[TheChamp420]

Just wondering if you've ever been the 1st to find something new at retail that hasn't been reported yet? Isn't it an awesome feeling?

It's only happened to me once or twice, but I remember finding RR2010 PPV3 at WM. I drink RSC just got them in stock, I was so pumped for Edge & Punk, even though for some reason the Edge wouldn't ring up at Wm & they took him away, I managed to find an Edge in Punk packaging and that rang up.

They shouldnt have taken it back. They should've just rang it up at the same price or just double scanned punk.

Ahh I remember those days of scandal, when certain figures wouldn't ring up and they wouldn't let you buy at certain Walmarts.

As far as your question, I think I've been the first to find something at retail a handful of times. I've definitely have been the first in my area to find stuff over a dozen times. Not anymore though, since I just order from RSC and don't do retail anymore really.

"OMG, there's lead in these toys. These are recalled."
Did you hear nonsense like that too?

It's hard to be first on the east coast. The last time I was really close was with Transformers Classic Jetfire. I found him on the pallets in walmart and just missed reporting by a few hours on tfw2005.com. For a little while I thought I was first, lol.

I think I did it once.

I remember being the first one to find Elite 11 Punk. Pretty awesome feeling, made a lot of people on this board happy.

[Scott!]

I was first in the uk section to find basic 18. Pretty cool.

[WWEKidCollector]

I was the first one to know the McRibb was back Last Year. Jk

I don't think I have ever found anything first on this site. However, I was the first person to put the KMart Exclusive Cena on eBay.

Only once a super long time ago I was the 1st person to find & post the 1st series of jakks classic superstars 2 packs....it was pretty exciting at the time to be the 1st person to find them, it's the one & only highlight of my wrestling figure forum life...besides that it'll never happen again cuz Ohio doesn't get new stuff till like a month after everyone else anymore

I was the first to find and post pictures of Entrance Greats HBK when he came out. Had a few offers on him because people were too impatient to wait another day before they ended up finding him.

Also got my nWo single and 2 packs before anyone else. I didn't have a camera at the time and posted that Rock had nWo spray painted on his back. People on here actually told me I was lying and to kill myself. I got banned for it.

[realjuicewinslow]

I think I was the first to find on of those annoying Signature Series. lol.

[Von Hooten]

I was the first to report Yoko... on the PA findings thread.

Not to sound like one of these guys, but... If you live on the East coast you have no chance of being the first to report something unless if it is a total fluke.

WWE Stuff takes too long to get here vs the East Coast. For me and where I live the patteren is usually this. January RSC will get Elite Series "x", 3 weeks to 1 month later E"x" shows up in the West Coast, 1 month after that they show up on the East cost, and about maybe 2 months after that my area will finally get them or not get them like with E10 and E11.

Items that are "street dated" aren't aloud to be sold until said street date, and stores that don't give a crap about that all seem to be on the West Coast. I always here about these stores, that I never heard of, that we don't have here in the East Coast that put out the good stuff

There was one time where I was the first to get my hands on some Transformers RotF figures first. Normally Walmart wouldn't sell them to me because of the "street date" but a few barcodes from other Transformer Packages took care of that problem

[si4life02]

I think I was the first to report the 3rd allstar set

[Von Hooten]

Wait I forgot. I was the first to report that I was new to the threads when I first joined. ;D

[GBGav]

I was the first to post pics of CS12 Dean Malenko and RA22.5(?) Psycosis. Though I know I was the 2nd to buy the Psycosis as another member on here bought it from the same shop a little earlier in the day.

I found the Elite 14 display at TRU first and posted it here, with no pics, and was doubted. Then I posted pics, and was still doubted, until others found it. I was just trying to share what I found and be helpful - don't think I'm gonna bothering doing that again. No one told me to kill myself, though.

It was weird because I had never found anything first, like vonhooten said, the East Coast seems to get stuff last a lot of the time.

yes and noone believed me lol

[WWEKidCollector]

What about that Poor Guy who found Elite 16 at Krogers a couple of months ago? Wfigs chew'd him up and spat him out about it.

[Edgefan]

those flex force figures with belts that were found at Meijer

[Matt Culture]

the better question is, if you saw someone in a store hide something, that you wanted, because you either needed it for your collection or knew it was a collectible, would you take it, or would you be the bigger man, and leave it for him
