Anyone ever thought to make a group order?

My only concern with a group orders if the value gets to high we will get hit with Customs Charges as well.

That's very possible.

It's pretty expensive but i want some of these figures and paying Ebay price for a few will cost me more than the full subscription.  Yes, i will probably get the subscription.  Just too bad they won't ship all figures in one shipment.

I'm in for 1 sub.  I really like some of the figures, such as Big Boa, Cover Girl, Dice, Jinx and Topson.  Some others were "nice to haves", including TNT and Quarrel.

Got my order in today. 2 sets and the shipping came to $7.45. for 4 figures. Paid a total of $109 in shipping for 2 sets.

$7.45 x 6 = $44.70.

I'm going to keep all the paper work and see how this all turns out but if they've charged me more then double for shipping then I will NOT be impressed.

And for the record, Jinx's neck is way to long. Dice looks good.

Hey Morgardee,

Can you clarify for me.  I don't understand the math.  What did you pay?  Was it $109 for 2 sets with shipping?  Was it $7.45 per figure for shipping?

Sorry I don't understand what your saying here?  $7.45 x 6 = $44.70?  6 what?

Thanks man.

Morgardee paid $109 for the shipping of 26 figures (Two sets of twelve figures plus two bonus figures).
This averages out to $4.19 for shipping on each figure.

On the first shipment the club paid $7.45 for the shipment of four figures.
This averages out to $1.86 for the shipping of each figure.

If this trend continues (shipping rates and packaging and materials staying constant for the next six months) the club will pay an estimated total of $48.43 to ship morgardee his figures. This means the club will have charged morgardee a total of $60.58 in handling charges, which most people would deem a rip off.

Thanks, I was lost on what the numbers were referring to.  Glad to hear the shipping is really reasonable, finally, too bad they still find a way to rip off international members for shipping/handling.
