Since joining the forum a couple years back, I've seen several different threads regarding serial numbers. Whether it's someone chasing down a specific number or questioning them on a pair or having access to a low one. With the release of the robotic store display replica, this has become more evident.
I can understand someone trying to get a number that has a significant meaning to that person or trying to get the numbers to match on the subsequent limited editions that are released (Hoiberg comes to mind with his No.81)
Given that these pieces come off an assembly line and get numbered afterwards, who's to say that No. 001 truly is the first one. I have a feeling someone will chime in with a "who cares, it's No.001"
I personally don't get fazed by the numbers and would just be happy enough to have one of a limited run, but would love to hear others thoughts on this topic.
