Postby **HiMyNameIsSean** » Wed Oct 16, 2013 6:47 pm

I'm gonna try and stop by tomorrow to see what they have, if I find anything I'll let you guys know.

We stopped by our hot topic today, was able to find a helmet Thor for myself, but no luck on the part of ponies. The manager did ask for my # though and said if any of the crystals do come in he would give us a call. My store is pretty pathetic though, he says since they started getting them the only one they have gotten was a clear dr whooves once.

No I have yet to see any in store but I am pretty sure a store here is gonna get them...since I've been helping one store has gotten 3 crystals from Pinkie Pie and Lyra and I have been able to get all them....

My store got the Pinkie Pie and Lyra, but he said if it doesn't say in transit by now, that the stores aren't going to be getting them...

No new ponies yet in CT

All right I was at Hot Topic yesterday and this lady bought every pony in the store, she also had the employee email every store in the city to reserve every pony. The girl told me that she was buying them all for a con to sell. So basically you can not find the new MLP vinyls in SA.

A person can do that? Wow...

That's not right.

Apparently they can, I just hope they get in some more shipments in soon for the rest of us.

that's just wrong. If the employees knew that's what she was buying them for, they should have stepped in and limited the amount she was able to buy.

Why? They are there to sell stuff.

How do you guys think I get all the crystal ponies for you? I am just getting nervous that they are not making their way to the East Coast.

Postby **TulaBug** » Fri Oct 18, 2013 2:58 pm

I wonder if they are buying them for a booth at Honshero's con?

Postby **tabby1375** » Fri Oct 18, 2013 3:01 pm

well stores on the east haven't received mallet Harley or lantern batman either when the west did, so lets just hope its all still coming!

Postby **Kaljor** » Fri Oct 18, 2013 3:14 pm

Buying the my little pony crystal variants is different than buying every pony in the store and from every other store in the city. That is just crazy.

Postby **ShoMeNodder** » Fri Oct 18, 2013 3:16 pm

I agree...how much can she make on the non-crystal ponies ?

cleaning out all of the stores in the area of all of their stock and emailing to get other stores to do it before they even hit the shelves and indicating you're going to resell to the employees is wrong. Yes, it is theirs to sell, and they can do that, but any good employee would have at least limited this person to buying a certain amount a day (making them have to come back multiple times) to ensure they have enough stock for their other customers. We are not talking about a small mom and pop shop that relies on having big sales, we're talking about a chain store that has several locations, and is not relying on this single sale for their profits. Good customer service is what goes further for a store like this, and allowing one person to buy all the stock from all locations in a city is not good customer service.

I THINK THE EMPLOYEE WOULD GET FIRED IF THEY TOLD A CUSTOMER YOU CAN'T BUY THAT- YOU THINK

Alamo City Comic Con is next weekend. Now I'm curious to find out if the pony hoarder is there.

She told me she was taking them all to a con, something starting with a C or a K. I guess she is just going to flip them for a heap I suppose.

I don't think they are allowed to sell them to her if they know she is buying them to resell them... I thought that was a thing. maybe not though.

She didn't exactly tell the cashier, she basically just told me while I was waiting behind her in the check out line for ten min.

Cristina strikes again. She's been on it. I checked the same Riverside location on Thursday and also Barnes & Noble. Let me know if you want to call the San Bernardino location and I can head out there this week.

Stopped by my local HT today in NJ, but seems that they haven't gotten any yet. They haven't gotten BL Batman in either so I'm guessing they are just taking their time to get to the East Coast. I'll check again next week sometime.

Same here. My local HT didn't have any of the new ponies or pops. When I asked they weren't sure when they were going to get them in. I hope soon!

And congrats Carol!
