A Good Day

Yesterday afternoon I got a tip from a Collector Buddy who let me know a bin was on the way to a local Walmart. Unfortunately, I had to work that evening at 6pm. The good news: The store closes at 8:30 now due to the Covid-19 situation.

When I got off at 6am, I decided to head there and see if I had a chance at getting this bin. I was actually nervous that other collectors would be waiting on it as well.

Once I arrived, I had to wait about 30 minutes before the store opened. I’m watching for signs of collectors gathering but none arrived. I was relieved that I was getting into the store right away.

I headed to the section and did my customary scan of the area: any signs of new freight, any bins, and is there anything on the pegs. Then I saw a cart with boxes, and found a small case with M2 on it.

Needless to say I cracked that case open and found something that I’ve never been able to find before: a Raw Chase, 1/250!!

I could hardly believe it.

I could hardly believe it, and now I was determined to find this bin. I found a clerk who has been helpful in the past and asked him to check on it. After a few minutes, he came back with one box, a 2020 J case. He explained that since his toy manager wasn’t in, he couldn’t bring it all out. I thanked him and went through the box excitedly.
