Perhaps I'm just old and grumpy, but at least the AD doesn't have to tell me, "The comic book store is down the road sir!".
Maybe they should.
Already waiting for someone to start a new thread...

"Appalling treatment by AD"

Guys, I went to 'my' AD to ask if they have a Hulk. They laughed and told me, "Toy shop is across the street, sir." Needless to say, they won't be getting my business in the future. What do you think guys?

Big chungus.

On another note, made the mistake of trying it yesterday at my AD.

It was not easy to go away 12k less wealthy.

Oops 126660 as "Deepy".

I get confused by reference numbers over 4/5 digits...

Now I'm off to pull on my Italian pointy patent leather elf shoes & mince off to get a manicure/pedicure.

Wonder if they have any specials on a wrist shave.
