i did..... some yrs back when RA was in style. anywho.... iam like 15-16.... so i seen someone way older then me. maybe in in his early 20's - mid 30's. point is he was a complete douche bag!!! being we was in the same asile.... and said to him, hey, these figures are awesome, do u collect aswell! with a cheesy smile ![:D](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/grin.gif) he picked up all the figures he wanted.... then left. i was like damn.... rude ass. and no he was not a scalper. cause he only got 1 of each, at that time was series ra13. so u knows.... that series had cena with the us spinner, that we all went crazy for. i sure did... lol Doesn't make him a D Bag. Honestly, Idk any normal adult who would be 30 years old and stand around in a toy aisle wanting to talk and make friends with a 15 year old. Could you imagine how he would feel? Let alone already being an adult in a toy aisle, now little kids are talking to him trying to be friends. lol Imagine if your mom came by and saw some 30 year old in a toy aisle talking to her son alone. I think alarms would be going off in any parents head thinkin child molester or something. You got to understand his side too. I know I wouldnt want to talk to children in a toy aisle that I didnt know. I would just nod and walk away too. It DOES make him a pretty big douchebag! Sure he doesn't want to get caught talking to a kid, but FFS the kid just asked him "if he collects as well", he should've just smiled politely and said "yes I do" and walked off. No need to be an unsocial bastard.

But he just stared at me and said nothing. It was great. Really glad I wasted time trying to be friendly to him. There are some nice people who work in stores, an older Hispanic lady who told me she loved John Cena, this guy I chat with at TRU. But sometimes collectors feel like the enemy, especially if there is some one-per-case figure hanging there. If Mattel didn't make the distribution suck so much (and if scalpers didn't exist) it would feel less like competition. So you never know what you're gonna get. Maybe a real cool person, maybe a mongoloid who stares off into space. But if you ever see a Chum Lee, do not attempt to engage him in conversation.
