Coolies, the yellow's one of my favourites, shows off the sculpt detail nicely. Any of the other UK guys planning on getting a set of these? I believe Veers only offers priority shipping so we can all save a few pennies and cut down on the number of customs forms he'll be filling in if we can figure out a combined order between us.

Good luck with the sale. I'm just going to buy more LRG sets because the shipping is cheaper and I get the cool garbage cans with the figures for the same price you're selling the yellows.

As I said before:

Yep. This time there are a ton of options. And the LRG cans are totally awesome! I would buy one of each set, maybe two of each set (one to open, one to keep closed) - maybe more.

As for shipping, it's $5.35 which is the flat rate for a USPS small box. That price also includes delivery confirmation, is the easiest for me to use, and gets the figures to people quickly. If there is an easier, better, all-around option, then I would love to know what it is. Seriously.

I think you have a crush on me. :give_rose:

I notice that none of those are yellow in colour though andI like the UofM colour, why anyone would want more sets of a colour they already own is beyond me, what a waste of money.

He had no intention of buying a yellow set at all and just came in here to insult the price cause he dislikes UofM.

Bear in mind you're liable for 20% value added tax and an £8 Royal Mail handling charge on anything valued over £15 ($23 or so) on the custom form.

Obviously that's only an issue if the full value is marked on the custom form...

I'm always happy to lie on a customs form, just leave a note in the PayPal comments! :D

Snagged 2 sets of the yellows to bring the per set price down a bit after shipping. If any of the UK guys want to hit me up for the second one then feel free, otherwise it'll be hitting the trade pile.

After I added a set to my cart, I put the WELCOMEBACK code in the discount box and clicked update. It took the discount there before going to checkout.

Shipping eats you a new one. Whats up with that? Do I get a song and dance when I open the package?

3 packs need to be shipped in a Medium box, and I use Flat Rates to make things easier. The Medium Flat Rate box price is $12.35, but I'm charging $11.35. :confused:

You should consider first class in the future. Same load will cost you $3-$4 first class. I am not trying to be a baby either, I already paid the $11.35. But it would probably make your customers happier.

Unfortunately, with 1st Class Mail, you can't really pay for shipping online, you have to go to the actual post office.
Only if it is an eBay auction (which I think is gone since the price hikes) and using Stamps.com which charges a monthly fee for an account with them.

Also, if you use Priority, you get free boxes. If you ship 1st class, you have to buy boxes which cost more. So unless you are buying boxes in bulk and shipping light mail (under 1lb) it is usually within $1 of 1st class to Priority. With the new price hikes, I am going to guess it is even closer, since the Post Office would rather you use Priority anyways.

All my international packages had to go to the post office but my domestic ones went out Priority.
