So you enter into a trade or just to throw out some good karma. You send someone something extra and the receiver doesn't even acknowledge you even sent it. This kinda of bugs the hell out of me since over the past few months I've sent a few Joe fans stuff free of charge or thrown in extra stuff like the entire 155 issue Marvel run of Joe comics on CD. I think that's a tad rude especially if you don't have to pay for it. I'm not saying do a song and dance, but damn atleast say something other than "Yeah got it" Come on I'm paying the shipping all you have to do is wait for it. The only reason I brought this up is because I have an extra v1 Lamprey that someone here was looking for and I was goin to just send it. However do to the off balance of "Thanks" compared to the lack of "Thanks" I've reconsidered.

Yeah that does suck, being nice and showing gratefulness can go a long way. I placed an order with one the Joe retailers and it was sent back to him for some strange reason....he apologized and gave me a $20 gift certificate...I thanked him on the phone and told him it wasn't necessary because these things happen, but he did it anyway....treat others the way you waned be treated and remember to say please and thank you.

I know I would love a copy of all 155 marvel run of the Joes on CD, LOL.

I can say that all people where always nice to me in trades/gifts like I tried to be. But in other hand I never did something expecting to receive a "thank you", I just did it. However isn't nothing hard to say thanks sometimes if someone was nice to you. There are people and people.

Ok I can agree with you on the not expecting to receive a "Thank You" However I was brought up with manners. With that said if any of you remember I was given a Terror Drome along with tons of other Joe items by a co worker. You bet your a$$ I said thank you and took him out to lunch later that week. So yeah a "Thank You" or at least something there's a whole tread that has about 90% of it is praising someone for being hooked up. So if you were hooked up with all 155 issues of the Marvel run how would you feel? Even if it was on CD. I was thrilled when I got it. Beats having to hunt down each issue.

You know Alan, I can completely understand where your coming from with this. I've had it happen to me on more than one occasion. It does sux and it makes you wonder 'why' you do it.........but you answered your own question.......you were brought up better than that..........


So, even though it's not nearly a qualifier, let me extend my thanks to you for showing your 'gentlemanly chivalry'........it's something that is so obviously lacking in today's society............

But know that somewhere, someone thanks you........even if it's little ol' me.....

Chivalry maybe dead, but not here. Even after five years of marriage I still get the door for my wife, get her flowers (without being trouble), say please / thank you and showing graditude for kindness. So after years of my parents and Drill Instructors teaching me these values I still carry them with me. Amazing how some don't.

I'm with Flint...I want to thank you for your involvement. Your dios and pics are great.

Since we are discussing acknowledgements, I'd like to acknowledge the service and trust I received from Good to Go Customs.com. For anyone not familiar with this site, they produce by far some of the best and most detailed 3-3/4 heads and accessories produced by anyone outside Hasbro.

Not to turn into an unsolicited ad here but everyone should look them up just to see some of the heads they make. I had a payment problem and let them know that it would be delayed and they not only trusted me for the payment but threw in an extra head gratus. That kind of trust is rare and I'm quite happy with what I got from them.
