I would do anything do help my staff in those days to get bonuses because they worked their asses off for minimal money. When the program was taken away from staff and district managers got nice raises, I quit on the spot due to my staff getting the shaft. On the flipside, antique and toy dealers were the worst. The staff would roll out merchandise and they'd practically get attacked by these vultures. If the dealers couldn't sell their stuff at flea markets, they'd simply return stuff within a week for in-store credit (not a bad deal for them).

Very understandable.

Re: Value Village: what are your Transformers findings?
Dropping stuff off at the VV at Steeles & Dufferin, I found a Gen Cyclonus, missing an arm so I left it, a few McD's TFs, found and bought one of the rock guys from Inhumanoids! The one on the left.

I dunno what it is with pricing at our value village, but all of those $3.99 bags in your picture would be at least $5.99 or $6.99 here...

Re: Value Village: what are your Transformers findings?
Is there a particular time you guys go at? Is it right at opening that the new stuff gets added? I never find anything.

It is a complete crap shoot. Sometimes I've seen them putting out new stock at 9am, other times 7pm.

I tend to go immediately after Hobbyist Prime has gone there, but just before he posts any findings on the board.
Lol.
