Anyone else received a series of bizarre messages on the site relating to Zavvi, a missing nerf gun, and vague threats of personal retribution? Or is it just me?

Sadly just you .... I'm sure that would spice up my boring existence 😉

As a gentleman, I wanted to make sure that it wasn't just a case of mistaken identity. The nerf gun thief may still be among us.

Does this relate to the Santa in a US 'Mall' who told a young lad that he wasn't doing nerf guns this year, so the NRA (who else?) stepped in to 'save the day'?
Or something...
It's caused a load of hatred on ****ter

No, this is straight-up consumer anger and a tale of damaged packaging and ruined Christmases, complete with threats to 'take it futher' (sic)

Yes! Last night i got one from someone claiming to be a meth addict, asking where they could score.

I can't post it up I'm afraid as I deleted it - reflex action when I get anything dodgy looking.

In a weird role-reversal for this sort of thing, the grammer and sentence structure was actually a bit too good for it to be plausible 😀

I drove past the NRA headquarters while I was in the states a few years back.

There is a museum in the basement that is unsurprising full of guns.

The building looks like a bond villan lair.clearly the look they were going for!
