Re: Shipping Costs!!!

I am needing some input from the great forum members. I am in the midst of purchasing a Corgi 1/72 HE-111 for my collection from a friend of mine in CA. He is telling me it is going to cost $25 bucks to ship USPS priority. I was wondering if this sounded about right. He said he was putting it in a box filled with peanuts, not just wrapping the Corgi box in brown paper. I usually buy through e-retailers so don't pay attention to much to shipping since it is usually free.

You have failed to state where you are, which makes assisting you somewhat problematical. Why on earth do you not simply look it up yourself here:

USPS - The United States Postal Service (U.S. Postal Service)

If you find the result at variance with the seller you refer to, debate the charge with him.

Horrido!

Interesting.
Sorry I don't have a better answer for you. "Buy U.K.!"

And buy where you get bonus points to be used to "buy" more diecast for free. I have enough points now to get Friday the 13th when it comes out. Way cool.

Mmmmm . . . and were does that happen? Would that be a place 'we' already frequent, or is that a source you have built up an affiliation with that you would prefer not to divulge. Sounds very good, regardless.

I am unable to see any posts prior to number one in the thread where you pose the questions that I addressed for you.
Suggest you ignore first sentence regarding location and then read on.




Never start a sentence with a preposition.
