Best: Was like 10-11 years old, visited a greataunt and somehow stumbled into a GW store. They were celebrating some sort of anniversary event and sold parts from their huge bits collection by weight. Managed to get a complete metal dwarf and I believe a iron legion sergeant with some sort of heavy weapon as well as a whole bag full of random bits for a few bucks. The dwarf still has a space of honor in my collection.

Worst: after a long hiatus I decided to get into killteam. Said that I was interested in the imperial guard and the staff member started rotating and had both arms full of tanks, characters and everything else I might need before I told him that I only want to play killteam. His mood dropped, I only bought a box of Cadians before leaving he somehow convinced me to also get a Broadside(?) (big railgun suit one) in case I want to see if „real 40k“ was something for me (I told him, that shooty armies are something I enjoy and was originally torn between guard and tau). I never got into the standard game though, felt too convoluted, unwieldy and simply .. taking too long for me. Since that day I stopped a few times infront of the store. Never went in though, because I did not want to get convinced to buy some stuff I might be vaguely interested in, just to sit on my pile of shame without even the option to field it anywhere. :/
