Anyone else have this problem... Everyone has theirs, but the only comic shops around are either closing, have closed, or do not carry them... Now I have to Waith on Suncoast, and I am nervous I will not get them when they come in... Stupid NC!!!!!!! ![>:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/angry.png)

I called around 7 or 8 comic shops around here, and none of them had the Willows. 3 or so of them didn't even have to check if they had the Willows. They probably didn't even order any.

There is only 1 comic shop near me that carries them.....have you tried to look under Hobby or a collectables shop?? that maybe a stupid question, but sometimes they are listed as those instead of comics? someone did say that Suncoast should have them by riday, so only one more day.

I sure hope so... Under all those topics in the phone Book, thier is one closed store under comics, one car store under hobbies, and the other topic does not exist... I think for those of us who do not have the shops, or can not find them, we should sell eachother our extras... If I find them, i will porbably put an extra or 2 on my credit card to give to sell to people here who need them... Anyone else think this is a good idea? I know I used to do it on the He-man boards, and it worked... I can defenetly say I will stop at the local/only Suncoast in our "mall"(if that is what you want to call it) to see if they get any...

Or we could all just wait until the 15th when Diamond's online store goes live.

Also, they can be ordered at any online store. I don't really see the point in members selling extras. ![???](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/huh.png)

And then their is not such a large shipping cost... Online stores charge like 6.50 to ship when Priorty mailer only cost 3.85 to ship... So... Paying the 14.99 online plus shipping for the figures that can be found in stores adds more money to be spent... And for me, saving my money is what I have been trying to do... Plus, their is just somthing about finding them in stores... Anyways, I was just putting the idea in the air... I like working out deals, and trading figures...

There are a few stores around me, but only 1 has ordered the Willow action figures, and they have only ordered a few to see how they sell. I do most of my Buffy figure shopping online..I only got the Dop. Willow cause I couldnt wait for my shipments.....well that and I havent heard from the 2 places I ordered from. But you still have Suncoast or Media Play to check out. I know when the s4 came out I called first (media Play is over 40 minutes away) to see if they had them in so try tomorrow evening. Or try to find them on ebay I am sure many sellers have them in and will ship asap. Hope this helps.

If it's the former, it still could take a long time to get them depending on when you put in your preorder. Hopefully, though, the suncoasts around here will have them... one I tried today didn't have them yet, but I'm trying there again tomorrow (it's close to my work, but 20 minuites from home) and another one at a closer mall this weekend if they don't show up tomorrow. I've had a really bad week, and could really use some Willow joy.

I've only got one comic shop here, and I had to beg them to get Buffy #63.
If they don't get the Willows, I have two Sam Goodys local, plus two more and a Suncoast at a city 40 minutes south of here. Plus, i got them preordered through Next Gen, but I just want to be sure I get them, and I want a regular Willow to keep MOC.
