LOL Good one, J1m!!! I have gone so far as to put fresh stock out for the guy just so I couls get what I wanted!

That's funny J1M, I thought I was the only one who did that. My daughters and I spent about 45 minutes one day completely fixing the shelves at a K-Mart. (Us American folk all know how bad K-Mart is) The girls went through isle to isle to pick up any stranded troops.
Anyways after we were nearly through, the manager happen to come by and asked us what we were doing. I nicely explained that we were fixing their display so that at least they would know what they had and may be then know how to order more...

...you're 30 years old, and your friends and family still get you Star Wars toys for your birthday and Christmas! (I'll NEVER get tired of that!)
(P.S. - I, too, have tidied up the action figures on the hooks! It's such blasphemy for anyone else to leave the racks in such a mess!)

Oh how I LOVE to open Star Wars goodies on Christmas day! I'm 32 and it's like I'm a kid again every time. Maybe that is the biggest reason most of us collect.
You know your a Star Wars fan when you look around EVERY room of your house and see loose figures or Star Wars Insider laying around!

When ever you have made a Major Purchase other then Star Wars, you have put the amount of money spent into Star Wars Collectible Terms
(i.e. "Im spending 300.00 on a new Washer, but I could actually use this money to pay for that AWESOME Vintage loose collection, I just saw on line")

Right on Syphodiaz! Right on!
I am always thinking like that, " Man, how many figures could I get with this."
