So I went up to the guy and asked him about when the next shipment was expected, as he had told me to check back this week. The guy tells me that the order is on hold or something or another and that I should check back next month.
I thanked him and told him I appreciated it as I was a collector and that his information was helpful. He then told me that he didn't care about collectors, he didn't care about me, and that he told the Hot Wheels collectors that if they didn't leave him alone, he was going to toss all the Hot Wheels and mess up their cards. He only cared about himself as a stocker or purchaser or something stupid.
Needless to say that I was very upset. I really should have told him off, but I really didn't feel up to dealing with dumb*ss-edness. That and he was about 300 lbs and six feet tall. Kinda intimidating to a 5'2" tall women.
I hate people like that. I'm so upset and furious right now, I can't think of anything to say.
On a positive note, I found Ultimate Bumblebee for my daughter's birthday. The fire has been kindled and now we can collect together. It's great being "The Cool Mom".

It's not the Hot Wheel collectors that are bad but the Hot Wheel scalpers. Those little dinkies have gotta be the hottest turn around in all of toys. You can buy the right car for a dollar in the store and sell it on eBay for hundreds
