WOW, I absolutely must say, I 100% agree with
Tara on this (whooaaa, miracle! Hahah ^_~*)
I think the opinion that people are only here to
better their hauls is a really cold (albeit true)
thought. It may be true in some ways...but I
think that perspective fades really fast once
you get close to people. I know I have met some
awesome people here, whom if I had a chance to
meet in person, Id love to actually hang out
with them aside from cels. I have also made a
few very close friends who Id probably invite to
my wedding (whenever that happens, hah)...yup,
they're just THAT cool XD~~~. I have also
wrapped my collecting days pretty much, but I
wont every stop talking to the people I have
met. And as Tara said, that's the one thing
that makes this hobby so incredibly hard to
leave....the people! (But...on the heavier
hand, it's also the people that make you WANT to
leave sometimes :P, but that's the way of the
world in general, not just with cels)
About Pocket...there was once I time I didnt
know about it either. Someone anon wrote me
with the address. I cant remember how I got the
new address either. I ordered from them once,
and it took almost a year to get my cels. I
swore Id never order from them again after
that. I know it feels horrid to have people not
give you the address, but...that's just the way
it goes. I dont give it out because they ask
people not to give it out. They're obviously
not a group who's equipped to deal with a large
customer base (hence no emails, long waits). I
figure...they're providing a service to me...so
I can provide one for them. Its that simple. If
they have this hard a time with the customer
base they have now...what if it doubled? Id be
28 before I got another cel from them!
I guess that's all I really have to offer :\ I
know it doesnt help that "lonely" feeling people
are getting by not knowing about the allmighty
pocket...but there's nothing I can do about
that. The only thing left I can say, is that I
find more awesome stuff on YJ everyday than I
have ever seen at Pocket ^_^;;; |
