Fucking Hasbro incompetence

Post by anarky »

So I ordered the mail-away exclusive GIJoe figure, Doc, back in April. It says to allow 6-8 weeks to receive the figure. I'm in no hurry, right?

The check cashed on May 23. A few days ago, I'm thinking, "It's been a while since that check cashed." So I contact Hasbro by e-mail (can't find any other way to do it), tell them the situation, all the relevant dates, and my contact info.

I got an e-mail back that they have no record of my request, and that, to investigate further, they need me to mail or fax (long distance, of course) a copy of the canceled check. It took me about fifteen minutes to get it from the bank. It was clearly endorsed by Hasbro.

The promotion ended on August 31. They'd better not fucking tell me that I don't get a Doc figure after buying all those duplicate fucking figures because of their incompetence.

It's one thing to keep re-releasing the same Clonetrooper a bazillion times. It's another to obviously partially process an order, then claim to have no record of it.

Why does Doc gotta be the mail away figure? Can't be the Asian guy? Can't be one of the hundred crackers on the team? Like that hillbilly jackoff Wild Bill? Nope. Gotta be the colored what went to medical school.

Y'know what sucks? As much as I dislike the douchebag, I have four (counting the one I ordered from Wal-Mart):
The original one from the five-pack
Carded with jetpack
The one from the TRU three-pack
The comic pack with Red Star

I passed on the comic version with Cobra Commander (just the same two characters in colors to reflect the relatively primitive 80s comic coloring) and won't get the upcoming Tiger Force version. The jetpack one is the only one I've bought individually, but the figure is so fucking cool.

Though Hasbro may be fucking incompetent, I'm quite competent at fucking the Hasbro employees' pets. Derryl DePriest's goldfish tickles the absolute hell out of my balls and I always end up filling the fishbowl with my load.

Are you colorblind, or just stupid?

It's been said that dogs are colorblind. I don't know about that, just that mabudon's dog has a sweet, tight asshole.

I smooched Steve this one time. He tasted of George's ass. It was pineapple flavour.
I have never read any of your posts, but from what I can learn I should say that for people who like the kind of posts you deliver, they are just the kind of posts such people like.
