I ordered Ed's and mine a couple weeks ago.  The price they gave me for shipping sounded really high as I went for priority air mail.  But at least I didn't get duty taxed on it.

Man, these figures are sweet.  Better than the orginals in my books.

I guess I should follow up on my complaint about the MC group. After send a couple of emails they gave me a refund of $8.00 (USD) so everything is good with them.

Now if my free figure would show up I'd be a happy boy.

Hey Pete, how much did they charge for shipping for 2 sets?

[Pete The Greek]

MC quoted me $19.80 for each set as per the email I got.  I have to see my credit card after this though.

However, under the postage and fee section of the Customs Declaration and Dispatch note, it states it cost $17.30, which sounds about right for priority.  But the little USPS sticker at the top of the box states $2.90.  Clearly something doesn't add up here. 

But at least I didn't get nailed with duty tax as the value of the sets wasn't written on the customs note.

I was quoted at $9.95 for UPS Ground within the states for a M.O.T.H. set, and they couldn't give me a price for USPS parcell post(states only), but they were kind enough to tell me that I could continue the transaction and be billed later for an unknown postage amount whenever they figured it out.

The way I see it, if they want to make more money on this stuff... increase the prices on the items they are selling.  Don't try and pull a fast one on people by throwing absurd shipping rates at them at the very last second.  Thats how it gets you though.  Most people just grind their teeth and hit "checkout" after going through all the steps to get there.  Its not like you can just go get it somewhere else either.
