Here's one I bashed earlier:
Basically, I had a spare Blitzway Scarface body sitting around with nothing to do, so, when this came out, I had a use for it. I scored the majority of the gear from a store called World Of One Sixth. They loudly trumpeted free shipping for orders over $50, there was also a discount on Carlito parts. I filled my cart and checked out. It was only then that I found out that the free shipping only applied to folk INSIDE the US! Nobody else at the time had everything I needed all in the one place, so I begrudgingly paid.
The owner then contacted me and said he'd refund the shipping. 'Great!' thought I, then, when I got the PayPal invoice, I only received a partial refund of $1.50 or so. I know! Of course, after the goodies were dispatched I found a store in Malaysia that had everything I'd just bought for way less and with far more reasonable shipping! I scored the silver 1911 from them.
Then, to add insult to injury, I then got hit with a customs charge of £21.21 for the gear I'd purchased from World Of One Sixth! The guy had declared the goods to be to the value of $100 so therefore I had to pay VAT! Ouch!
I guess the only good part is that I now have a Carlito figure I absolutely love, so that one MAJOR pro outweighs all the cons, just!
