Title: Famous GI Joe store in BC?
Post by: martin-montreal on June 01, 2009, 09:56:26 PM: Hey guys!

I saw once some pics from a store in BC with a lot of GI Joe figs and vehicles on display. Can you tell me where it is (what city?)?

Thanks!

Martin

Here's a vid I took in 2006 of it when I was out there. I'm sure it's changed since then

I believe they do--but I do not know how they price the stuff.
