so how are your option's for buying in person, it's all most impossible to find transformers and several other major franchises, even though i don't personally collect them i still think it's weird i never see them.

i used to go to a frailly owned store because the owner use to order rider stuff in for me, but he shut up shop to relocate, so i decided to try out the local cape shit store

>be 23 y/o, britbong.
>all most exclusively stock's lame western shit (star wars, marvel,DC etc)
>only gunpla they have are ether master grades or p bandai metallic or clear variations
>they un-ironically keep them in a fucking locked case
>action figure section is mostly cape shit and star wars
>only transformer in then entire store is the new MP optimus which they want £700 for
>have a huge manga section, a good chunk of this manga could be consider child porn under UK law, judging buy the cover
>middle aged staff member standing around talking to three customers who barley look 16 about which anime girl's he want's to shag, just casually, in the open, as you do
>finally find the rider stuff, they advertise as having, just shf wizard land style and drive type dead heat along with some, ghost icon's
> wizard and drive going for £23 each,
>go to check out, bird in front takes 15 minutes trying to order a statue of the new girl from star wars
>take figures to till and pay, ask if they can order in more rider stuff and mention i have been having trouble finding toy's and the staff behind he till look at me like
>sorry we only order in "adult collectables" from "approve franchises" ,they say theirs an app on the phone you can get but when i showed them my phone (Nokia 3310) she looked at me with pure disgust and just said "oh well"
>just left after that,

any way i'm never going back their, so this means my only option is the internet,

but any way how do you feel about buying toy's in person, a lot of my friends don't fell comfortable doing it, doesnt bother me though
