Finally broke the Porsche buying chain with this:

For now, I'm only using mobile internet, as my home internet went nuts and the provider can't seem to grasp what's really going on with the connection.

These aren't in demand now and there seems to be an abundance of it. I wasted the moolahs on buying the whole box set last year.

Again, same. My order still hasn't arrived either. Starting to get a little impatient now.

That was the first one that I've seen. Maybe other collectors are picking them up before me.

wait you dont get in trouble for setting some aside?

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

wait you dont get in trouble for setting a few aside? i also work at Walmart in the toy department and was "coached" for setting a few aside for myself.

I buy them off the clock.

ah ok, thats what i did.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

ah ok, thats what i did, as i was stocking them i set some on an l cart and bought them on my lunch break.

I work in the back room from 4 pm to 1am unloading trucks. I also pull the pallets out.

oh cool, i love when they pull me to receiving one of the best jobs (in my opinion).

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

oh cool, i love when they pull me to receiving one of the best jobs (in my opinion), but then again i like cart pushing so maybe im just crazy. we're very short handed though so im lucky if i dont get pulled to a register.

I started out cart pushing. But switched in October for IMS.

nice, cant say i'll be working here much longer if they dont hire a reasonable amount of people so that everyone doesnt get pulled away from their department.

We usually have 5 people including me that unload the truck.

Even setting them aside while you are on the clock is extremely frowned upon by collectors. If I lived in your area I wouldn't shop at your store anymore because of what you just said. No way for me to get a chance at a TH or any rare versions, not shopping there. In fact someone, if they wanted to, could call Walmart corporate and complain and it might get ugly.

I know it's selfish haven't done it, the ones I got weren't rare or anything just normal old hotwheels. I should also note that there are also collectors who come in at 6 AM everyday waiting for new hotwheels to be put out so they can pick out the good ones. They leave with about 150 every time new ones are stocked.

Nice! I'm thinking about going to recieving full time. Just not sure if it's something I'd get tired of very fast.

Not exactly 1/64, but Matchbox nonetheless. I'd consider them a steal for the price I paid.
