I believe in pay it sideshow, and I do lots of that lol. Back to being serious, it's nice to see people get each other's back instead of stabbing it.

This was truly a nice thing that you were doing for a boardmember. I sure hope that one person's opinion doesn't deter you from this act of kindness. I truly believe in "pay it forward"...and obviously you do too.

Anyway, I just bought the regular edition from Dark Shadow for $238![]()

I was only playing around. While it would be nice to get the piece for your original asking price I completely understand that you have to do what you have to do. I wish all the best of luck to you and if your other deal doesn't go through you know where I can be found.Darth Loki said:Now, now. Play nice![]()
I don't expect anyone to sell me a Snow Bunny Padme maquette for retail. It's not like this statue hasn't been out for a year.
tomandshell said:Loki wasn't planning on getting it, but he told starwarsgeek7 that he would get an order in for him just in case there weren't any left at noon. Once geek reported that he was successful in placing an order of his own, Loki was free to cancel the one he had reserved for him. So he was being helpful..

tomandshell said:I figured you didn't know that--it's OK. That's why I was explaining. My intended tone was helpful and explanatory rather than condemning. Not sure how it came across.
Because you didn't know, we will let you off with just a minor toe flea infestation this time:
Aw shoot Josh, you wanted the exclusive? I wish I'd known. I preordered it for the heck of it then cancelled. I could have easily gotten it for you (but as many have said, I think it'll be quite easy to get off the waitlist.)DarkArtist81 said:I got mine ordered.... still ticked off about the ordering system for this one... but missing out on that droid wasn't all that bad... so I don't care anymore.![]()
At least I got in on Flexpay and will have it coming. Maul is cool IMO and I can't wait....
Vader AL said:tom, what the fk is that?
Tunga penetrans, also known as the 'Jigger' or 'Chigoe' flea, occurs in tropical Africa, the Americas and western India. The adult female flea burrows into human flesh, particularly the feet. She will remain embedded, the ovaries will swell and eggs are produced, with the body becoming around the size of a pea. This is an adult female Tunga penetrans that was surgically removed and measures 4.8mm. The head & thorax can be seen as the dark brown stucture, off centred and to the lower left.
The only two PF's I own I both bought direct from SS. Do most retailers have "its free to cancel after you preorder" policies like SS does? I'd like to preorder a regular but want to have the option to cancel if SS comes through with upcoming R2/C-3PO and LOTR PF announcements.Darth Loki said:I was only half serious.
