Officially Cut Off.....
Sadly, my wife just sent me a text message telling me "NO MORE HEROSCAPE STUFF!".
I just got Sir Dupuis for a buck on eBay this morning and apparently that was the last straw for her...lol. I can't complain as our son and I have a great collection and we have LOTS of fun with our friends, but the chase has been called off. No Aubriens for us. No Ticalla Jungle for us. lol.... oh well.. Unless GoodWill or another garage sale has stuff for >$5, we're done, sadly. I guess I am now in the mood to make more custom terrain!!! Sorry, this was just a bit of "venting" from me. Frustrating that I cannot hunt down more figures and terrain. Wives are the death of great hobbies When shipping a trade or sale at the post office and you have your three year old daughter with you - - SHE is in charge, not you. Box things AHEAD OF TIME!! |

I'm glad I have at least 10 or 15 years to go before I even get married, beacause my collection is rather feeble. |

Re: Officially Cut Off.....
I can understand in some ways as a lot of things are getting ridiculous on the secondary market. Although if Dupuis for a buck sets her off I'm afraid her tolerance is rather low.

I feel your pain. But at least I get to buy my own presents instead of waiting for a new tie or socks. Last edited by AMIS : October 24th, 2011 at 02:44 PM. Reason: Just glad I'm not alone. Good trades with - Porkins/xraine69/mac122/frylock |

Re: Officially Cut Off.....
Avoid showing them the toys! Girls are kinda freaked out by that. I've been married for a decade and we have kids, so I can pull it off. LOL!
And my wife doesn't grab anything in the mail, she just takes credit cards away and says "BAD Charlie....BAD." lol ..........evil wives.......gggrrrrrrr When shipping a trade or sale at the post office and you have your three year old daughter with you - - SHE is in charge, not you.

I, too, have been cut off. But since I work for a living I may still buy occasionally. Stand up for your rights boys! And personally? I'd show my potential permanent partner my Heroscape. If she's turned off by it then she is not really a PPP. Not on the first date. Just imagine how fun it would be to play with your wife all the time. Mine does it only on sufferance, but she does play (and win, curse her.) |

Re: Officially Cut Off.....
While there are many women in the world, there is only one game of games.
Seriously, my wife is happy that I am not out with my friends, so I get very little flak. The main complaint I get is I am spoiling my son since the first thing he does when he gets home from school is look for boxes. I have averaged about 2-3 deliveries a week for most of this year, so it is a valid argument. She asked me last week to have them sent to work instead which will allow me to "say hello to my little friends" in the privacy of my office. |

Re: Officially Cut Off.....
True, my wife does like the fact that I am home and not out at the bar going berserk with friends..lol. So the only trouble I get into is when I spend too much or we get too loud on game nights and people want to sleep...
And my 10 year old son does the same, looks for boxes in the mail because he "knows dad is buying stuff"! LOL! When shipping a trade or sale at the post office and you have your three year old daughter with you - - SHE is in charge, not you. Box things AHEAD OF TIME!! |

No one get me wrong here. My wife is great but the presents she tends to buy me are not ones I would go out of my way to get. Like other here, she's happy I'm no longer a booze hound (well most of the time I think she's happy being in the background and rolling her eyes at us.
