What Has Almost Made You Quit Collecting

What is about to make me stope collecting if it doesn't get better soon is the distribution and scalpers. First of all the distribution to some stores in my area is just not excusable. Some of the stores will get newer stuff while the other ones will just have the same crap for many months on end. Also, Meijer's in my area haven't even received RiD figures yet except for BotShot's and Legion's. Targets are only 3 pegs now and they are all BB's. Voyager Primes are EVERYWHERE and 75% of stores don't even carry the Commander figures. So it is frustrating, and I even live in a decent sized city(Columbus, OH).

 

The other thing that is going to make me quit is the damn scalpers. There has been plenty of times recently to where I will go into the few WM or TRU's that actually get new figures in, only to find out that the scalpers have already raided the Vehicon's. In fact I went into a TRU today where they were putting out stock around 5pm and they just put out 3 cases of Wave 3 out a 1/2 before(talked to the associate) and some douche bag came in and bought all the Vehicon's. I REFUSE to pay $30+ for a $13 figure.

 

So Hasbro needs to start thinking smart and pack more of the figures they know people want and quit with the 5 or 6 BB repaints(Which will last all through wave 6 btw) and stores need to start enforcing the 2 figures per person rule again.

 

I was just in town yesterday. Glad i didn't go hunting.

The thing that has me thinking about getting out of it is when we get shown upcoming products that we never get. I don't care who is at fault. It's getting old.
