Digger-
Are you close by this store location??
If so, are you will to (sorry) dig up some bargins for us??
Of course I can buy it or trade you something for XD stuff you can find.
tderespino,
Was this stuff under the green tag 70% off or just 20% off?
If digger is not close to this TRU, is it possible for you to grab some of the bargins? (just let us know more details- like prices and types)
Thanks!
14th st.

I am close enough - I can get there and back on the subway w/in my lunch break. However, I did recon at that store last week and the only XD was fountains and full priced M41s. I assume M41s is what Tom saw and not Shermans. I also assume nobody really needs fountains, even at 7 bucks or whatever. That said I will gladly head down there and check it out, especially if people want either of the above.
The bbi selection was limited to - no WWII, no Jets, just some standard modern leftovers that most people have in their AO.
subway to nowhere

Digger-
Don't knock yourself out ridin' the subway. It sounds like a washout.
Appreciate your willingness to go.
No- got fountains out my ears. My TRU had a surplus of them.
Thanks!

I am sorry guy's just got home,, I am not sure of the make and model I saw several tanks, 2 or 3 apachies several fountains, a few new BBI figures and weapons,, the key is they are closing! and the people who work there don't know squat,, you might get the damaged boxed stuff for next to nothing...
good hunting
