suncoast bebop crazy guy

Postby Gatsthedarksword » Fri Oct 18, 2002 9:47 pm

ok, is there someplace besides suncoast that sells anime, a mean a generic store. because i know where suncoast is down here and first off i don't like their selection but my main complaint is our suncoast guy in charge of anime is like psycotic. he's obsesed with cowboy bebop, totally nuts about it, he's the kind of guy who'd go to work everyday as spike if they didn't stop him. and he wont let you just buy stuff i tried to go in and just buy a movie a few days ago he yanked it away from clerk and went to get the "special edition" and then asked me if i wanted it. i asked him what it was and he walked off got it put it on the counter and then explained it was a little better quality and cost almost twice as much. i was in their just looking at anime and i asked him if jin-roh was good and he said "oh it's awsome" and handed me the three disk set and i reached behind it to grab the basic dvd to look at it and you'd think i comited sacrilige. i finaly walked out after he started walking down the aile handing me anime's that he "thought were good". so i ask. like does sam goody or some chain of stores sell it cause if i go back in thier i think he might try and rape me or something cause last time i went in i asked him what he thought of berserk now that it came out i wanted to rub in his face how much better it was than cowboy bebop. yeah, he freaked "well i think berserk is better cause i like the charcters better and gats doens't run off getting himself almost killed becuase of some girl who may or may not be alive." oooooooohhh man did he hate that. so i figure if i walk back in he'll pull "the cowboy bebop fan gun" out and shoot me or something. anyway yeah were?

I know the Sam Goody in my area sells anime, and it has a pretty good selection. I'd tend to think that other Sam Goody's would as well.
Everyone is not the same as you.
Get over it.
And lighten up.

LOL Pissing off obsesed people can be fun, but it's not always good for your health. FYE has some, Sam Goody does too, but if there is a Best Buy close I would go with that. You might also get lucky with an electronics store like Electronics Boutique.

i buy most of my anime anything from a place called pandora's cube, but i doubt there are any of those around you...i only go to the suncoast when the cube doesnt have what i need. the only problem with pandora's is they jack up the prices on almost everything.

If you have a Best Buy around there they have a surprisingly large selection Anime. I was surprised when I first found out and now I stop by to see if they have anything "new". As in always browsing never buying (I'm in college and the cost of books has priority).

Gats, the solution to your problem is as follows:

1. Get a Zorro costume. Or even better, a Spike costume. Wear the costume and a mask.
2. Lure him into the alley behind the store, or some abandoned place.
3. Tackle him, keep him pinned down, and whisper in his ear "Tonight I dine on suckling piggy".
4. Sodomize the FUCK out of him. Keep saying "What's Spikey doing? That's right, Spikey's riding the fucking train. Mass in the ass!".
5. After you're done (you should stop when he's nearly unconscious or, worse, dead), say "Vicious was a better lay".

Afterwards, you can buy at Suncoast in peace. To further torment him and keep him in his place, ask to look at Cowboy Bebop DVDs with Spike on the cover.

Well, I'm not sure where you live, but if you don't have a Best Buy, you should have a Future Shop. I think they're like the Canadian version of Best Buy. Anyways, I do know the Future Shop chain is owned by Best Buy. Other than that, I like browsing around and getting lucky. Stores that don't sell much anime, or doesn't know the difference between anime and cartoons, tend to sell it really cheap. I don't know that most people jack up the prices. :twisted:

Unless you need something immediately, I'd suggest getting stuff from cdnow. They give 30% off pre-orders, and you can get an additional 15% off by using this link:

funny thing is Sam Goody, Suncoast, and Best Buy are all owned by the same parent company and employee's at one store get a discount at all the stores....

Speaking from a mundane customer service perspective, I would say that you have the right to ask for the Suncoast general manager, and then tell him he's got a crazy fucktard working for him that is harassing you in the store, and is forcing you to take your business elsewhere.

That will generally solve the problem real quick--either the guy will be gone in a hurry, or he'll tone down. Probably the former, from your description.

Unless the manager is an incompetent, in which case you do have a bigger problem.
