Acronyms and other things

ok guys Ive only been here for about 5 days and I am really looking into buying some gear from TDH but i dont want to get scammed so can anyone explain to me all the acronyms and weird names for things i dont know, things like resin, ROTJ and ESB? Any help would be greatly appreciated

the best thing to do is just read the board for a while. i don't think it's a good idea to just jump in and start buying, particularly if you are still stuck on things like rotj (return of the jedi) and esb (empire strikes back)

definitely spend some time reading the wiki:
http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/wiki/Main_Page

for example, right on the main page there is an "abbreviations and acronyms" link that will help with some of this.

i'd recommend a few weeks of reading / learning before the shopping starts.
