Giant Robot Store and GR2 News
Perfect. I was almost hoping someone would say this. (read the comment below.) I asked the webstore folks the question: Why aren’t they just picking the packages up? mikemike said, “cuz they’re assholes…” That’s a strong response from a super mild mannered person. I know you can order a pickup online. They are supposed to come and pick everything up the next day. Their excuse is that online, our address for giant robot isn’t registered to the webstore address. But, it is. The pick-up person shows up periodically, like, “here I am!” And why does he even do that if our address is “wrong?” So the question is, who’s right and who’s wrong?
