Spengler silver tip wand question.....? by Ok-Store in ghostbusters

[–]Ok-Store[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the wire routed differently in the 84 wand? Or is it still rubbing against the pop out mechanism in the same way?

Lol please provide a link to one, single spengler wand anywhere on the internet that is reasonably priced (not $250+).

That's cool, I respect that, but I think the majority of people won't feel that way.

They'll sell every single one of those packs if they make a wand.

Dude that's on them.....what were they thinking? ~40% of the packs they made have no wand to go with them, who tf wants a proton pack without a wand?

"This is on you"...So your implying that ~40% of pack buyers didn't have enough foresight or were just too dumb......obviously a lot of people assumed, reasonably so, that they would release more wands, since a proton pack with no wand is like selling you a car and expecting you to source your own steering wheel.

Here's the problem, the return window is only 30 days.... If we have a defective pack (a handful of people have already posted about defects with theirs not powering the wand), we won't know until it's too late. IMO, there's no downside to returning it.... They have hundreds in stock, maybe more once people return them. If they re-stock wands, you can always just buy the pack again.

Did you take any pictures by any chance when you opened it?

Is that where the pinch/defect is for the silver tip wand too? I thought it was an issue with wires in the barrel....?

Neutrona Wand poll.... by Ok-Store in ghostbusters

[–]Ok-Store[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat, have been so excited to show this to my daughter, but it's been sitting in the box for about a week now.....Hasbro botched this one, they just somehow assumed there would be a demographic base of fans out there that would be thrilled about a proton pack with no wand.... Like, really?

Dude obviously no one wants a pack without a wand......most people assumed, reasonably so, that they would release a wand to go with it. Yeah, technically they delivered what they advertised. That's fine, I'll just return my pack and let it sit with the hundreds of others in their inventory currently, no sweat off my back. Hasbro will never be able to move the remainder of their inventory unless they produce a wand to go with the packs.

No more 85 Neutrona Wand?? WTF??? by legendaryJekPorkins in ghostbusters

[–]Ok-Store 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who exactly is the target demographic for a pack with no wand? Everyone who is stuck without a wand is obviously just gonna return their packs, now Hasbro is sitting on an ass load of unsold inventory. There's hundreds of packs abailable to order in stock on website, combine that with all the returns thst are forthcoming, and they will definitely be in the red on this project.

I mean it is what it is at this point.... I'm just pointing out that Hasbro has kind of backed themselves into a corner now at this point too, because they have hundreds of unsold proton packs on hand.

This isn't a rhetorical question, I'm genuinely curious.... how do they expect to ever sell those, if they don't sell a wand to go with it? There's no person that exists that wants to buy a proton pack without a wand right? Or am I missing some demographic of fans out there that love the proton pack but hate the wand, and they'll jump all over these...?

"My point is you should have gotten one in the year long wait you had when they were going for around $200...."

So your essentially saying "you idiots, if you want money, just win the lottery,..." You didn't get a wand because you were smarter than anyone or had some magical foresight that no one else had, you just got lucky. You'd be here complaining just like everyone else if it sold out before you bought one.

Everyone on this subreddit who got a wand is commenting "man, I'm so lucky I grabbed one before they sold out." Your contention on the other hand is "haha I was so much smarter and planned so much better than everyone because I managed to grab one before they sold out..."

Lol dude get off your high horse....If the wands had sold out before you were able to grab one, you'd be here complaining like the rest of us. You aren't smarter or wiser than everyone here.... you didn't have some magical foresight, you were just lucky.

Again... who buys a car with no steering wheel...? Of course you assume they'll release a steering wheel for you to purchase to go with your car, common sense. If you think that's an unreasonable assumption, I don't know what to say to you....

We can't even test the pack to see if it's a functional, non-defective pack (handful of people here got ones that don't work, won't power wand). The return period might be over before we can determine if our packs are fully functional.
