Like I mentioned before jump through hoops or compete with resellers.
I just base my two cents on availability and comparing them to Lego. I believe they still base their business model on artificial availability and hype. Again that is just my opinion.
Sounds like the funatic community isn't the place for you and that's fine. Just remember to be respectful of those who have found it to be a great place to be. If we were all into all the same things life would probably always just be overcrowded and exhausting. Dare I say even boring.
I almost missed the cut off for Fundays on the forum because I didn't check the forum all weekend. Oops :P Got in with 90 minutes to spare.
Glad you made it in?
I don't think I will get chosen, I only have a little over 300 posts, but I would have felt like the dumbest person in the world if I missed it.
Respectfully I would like to comment on this if you don't mind. 1) not sure what you mean about artificial availability. i find the funko website similar to the "requirements" here declared or not in terms of sdcc hotel sharing. its not the perfect way of addressing people who come here or there only when sdcc hotels or fundays comes around. but it's better than nothing.2) what business model are you referring to ? in my opinion (and yeah it's just mine). if funko wanted to have a "better" business model aimed at attracting new customers they wouldn't do it this way. for a lot of us we feel like they are trying to take care of their core fan base and it is more than appreciated by most of us. the problem comes down to entitlement over there, and here to be honest. oh i have been here for x number of years with x number of posts. i "deserve" something. if anything it's this population of people that would make me want to stop doing it. because it's something (here and there) they do to try to take care of people who contribute to the community and then they get crapped on. i really see a lot of similarities between the fundays situation over there and the hotel help situation on this forum.
