: we need your help. we live in a small town in california where there is only one comic store in range.
That sucks.
An hour and half drive is called upon to get to a descent shop.
As does that.
: the young lads that run this place are often reffered to as "the comic book nazis" working at the "comic book nazi store". And why are they nazis?
Good question.
: One example for you...
Oh, good. I look forward to understanding this phenomenon.
: i dragged myself to the "comic nazi store" to pick up an issue that i had been waiting for. as i searched, i found that this certin title was stocked with past issues, but not the one i had been looking for.
That sucks. I hate when that happens.
: I asked nazi #1 where was the book. he looked up from his new "tombraider" and said that they had sold out.
I hate when that happens, too. Liberals sell out of books, too, though... I guess I'll read on.
: I returned the following week to find that the said issue was bagged and borded with a new price of $15. Hmmm. Hitler would be proud.
uh... why? I seem to have missed the tale of Hitler doing, ordering or advocating anything like this.
How about you just call them "comic book assholes" and leave Naziism out it? I mean, since despite your insistance, there doesn't seem any reason for Hitler to find this behavior particularly admirable.
: this is nothing new to us in victorville. they often shut the store down to have their monthly Pokemon tournaments.
Lots of places do that. Isn't there a schedule for this? It would seem that they'd want the public to know when their Pokemon tournament was, so they could come to play or not come to buy. As such, this seems easy to plan around.
: Their back issue bundle packs are chalk filled with valliant comics titles.
And they do that on purpose to inconvienience you?
: Want to special order something, hand over your first born and one testicle.
Hardly seems worth it. I'd head to the hour and a half store and pick things up.
: for the love of nongeek fanboys every where, kevin please help us!!!!
What the fuck is he supposed to do?
Whiny slackers... damn!
