Respecting elders does NOT mean that you have to tolerate them disrespecting you. I told my egg donor of a grandmother to screw off when she started telling me how to live my life the first day I met her at 19.
I am an older man ,53,and I know better. It's very rude and disrespectful to just "cut in line" like that. I would never do that to anyone, and I wouldn't have handled it as well as you. Luckily, most other collectors I run into are cool.
@@camcordernonsense5264Yes, there are a great deal of folks that actually think their vehicle is a weapon. The Walmart shopping "raging" will only get worse as the hobby grows. I really hope fights don't break out because of a toy!
But when elders do respect back. An old woman did that at Dollar Tree with the movies. She barge in to the side I was looking at instead of the other side where no one was. She was very close to my personal are if you know what I mean. " Oh goody movies..." Yikes.
No matter the age, disrespect is disrespect. A lot of what's wrong with the hobby today is the people that are in it. I'm sorry they treated you that way.
Glad you went for a beer. Time for a reality check. You are better than this. I love the people that work at Walmart. People, regardless of age will push, steal, even bribe to get the object of today's hype. I am 66, a collector of 40 years and I got shoved yesterday by a fellow in his 30s with his son! I just moved aside and reminded myself that we are better than this, and to remember that we are buying items in the Toy Department, meant for joy for children!
I went to the HW section and saw some kids having fun picking out a case and some cars, so I left the area and left them pick what they wanted because I will be old man soon.
hit the spot first, stand infront of the hot wheels and start search, they cant just start looking while your out hot wheels picking. let them know straight up that your first, wait til your done
Sorry they took the reds you had set aside, You’ll have to pick up a set for yourself when you come across more, at least you completed the variation of the Loopster. wonder why they were so hyped up about pegs that were not 100% fresh, Didn’t think C case would have this much hype. I’ve noticed lately there’s more people milling around stores in general during the morning than 3-6 months ago.
Ultimately, you did the right thing. It’s annoying that it happened but making a real big deal out of this situation would not have helped anything. I’m proud of you.
I thought there was a unwritten rules about not cutting into a person that is looking at the pegs first. Sorry, that happened. You got my sub, because you showed a lot more class.
Man that’s so rude. It’s ok to be upset because I would be beyond upset lol. You handled it well and hopefully your next hunt is a STH! Keep on going brotha
You should of waited outside for them and let them know you didn’t appreciate that and gave them a 2 piece 😂 and took a screwdriver to there car wheels 😂
I came across that with some old drunk guy at target. It was at opening and I was going to the dump bin and he walked by and said to me "scalping huh" and I was like wtf did u say to me. And I got him on camera being weird and I flipped out on him and some Karen was gonna call the cops on me for flipping out on the drunk guy for harassing me. So I got the F out of there. Got it all on camera was gonna post it but decided not to
@millcitychris4303..... Why did you flip out unless you really were scalping, I called a guy out I saw at a Target that had a whole arm full of GI Joe classified figures, I saw there were a couple left on the shelf so as I walked by him I said you missed a couple.....10 minutes later he was back with a shopping cart 😂😂😂
@@williamwilkinson6665 why am I a scalper because I'm digging thru a HWs dump bin for a super??? That why I flipped out on him. When I see someone digging thru a bin. I'm like "hey did u find anything" or "damn it I missed out" something friendly to strike up a conversation. But this old guy was just weird and drunk at 8:30 in the morning.
@@millcitychris4303 ..well yeah most scalpers hit the stores right when they open. ... Instead of flipping out you could just as easily said yep got,em all ...
Yeah, I know what you mean. I used to find chases at my local Wally World until one of my friends got a job in the toy department. He pallet raids collectible’s in the store room. I told the management in which case they started harassing me cause he told them I was the culprit. So I gave up trying. Anyone who says there’s honor among collectors got lied to or just hasn’t met the wrong collector yet.
You need to stand your ground, it was very apparent in the video that you were intimidated by them. You set aside some cars in the beginning of the video that you wanted but let them take from you... Take this as your "approval" to tell them to go to hell and hold your ground. You can do better!
The old timers were scalpers. That is what Hot Wheels have become. Scalp up highly sought out cars and make a few dollars. Collection days are pretty much over.
It's sad how greedy people have become to this hobby it's suppose to be for fun and the joy of it. Some people know how to ruin the hunting of hot wheels. Good you kept it calm and real not letting them get to you
Crazy.. you were there first and they still had the audacity to take the stuff you already pulled off the pegs… that’s why I carry would love to see them try that with me
I'm older than those older guys, and while I would want to get some items, I wouldn't interrupt your filming, everybody deserves respect, apart from those two jerks!
man my friend in discord told me that he grabbed the last zonda r in the shelf and yet some old dude stole it from him and said "better luck next time kid." bruh I would literally look for a fight with that dude if that happens to me
I had the same problem yesterday with kids and an old woman. I had to walk away so I didn't do something stupid. People are so ignorant these days. It makes me sad.
Let them get those peg warmers bro. Idk if you guys seen videos of collectors from mexico they go bat shit crazy pushing and shoving when the pegs get stocked.
jeez this hobby has been filled with a bunch of assholes, i had a similar thing happen to me, i was going thru cases and these dudes came up and took all of em and found 3 supers that i was going to go thru and i only walked away with a reg th and they were flexing their find
@Cali_Collector75 I looked at video a few times and I confirmed that is the rude old man. But I'm not getting into a fight over sum hotwheels. Some people suck bro no need for that
@Cali_Collector75 sucks we have people like that into the hobby, they just need to be careful they gonna bump into someone that will fight for them and gonna get hurt
I'll ask, very politely, one time and one time only for someone to respect my personal space. About 1 to 2 seconds after they make ANY physical contact with me they are going on the floor and getting a quick nap, no tapping out.
I would have told those two old farts to wait their turn. I was here first. especially me, cuz I like to get at least one of all the castings in the case. so I look through them and pick the ones with the best tampos. Sometimes I take a small magnifying glass.. its my right to choose the ones I want.
You say be respectful to them bc they elders but that is a kid aisle section and look how they acted like vultures,sorry for that man,I been in stores where dudes straight up section off and claim the pegs as if no one else can purchase these little cars,sad stuff
So you didn't know them I thought you were joking around because I heard you say the one guy's name I thought if that's how it really went down that was rude as shit sorry for that man much respect for you not blowing your lid
