Nonsense. You don't need all exclusives. Often the ex is crap. The regular versions that are available at European retailers are mostly equally good.
Yeah Ex used to be great like with the capt america you got a different head & shield now you get something lame like a Locket on X-23 or some Print woooooooooow

100% agree. There are "must-have" exclusives. Most of the time the regular version does it too.

If true, UK collectors will probably get their stuff from the EU warehouse until SS closes it. Once it is closed, everything will ship from US warehouse.

It is true, most exclusives are superfluous, but, on the aftermarket, the exclusive versions tend to maintain their value better. Now I know that a lot of you don't really mind the monetary value of their collectibles, but there are a lot that do.
And yes, it also appeared to me that ordering from SSC en direct looses a lot of it's appeal should it become even more expensive than it already is, for what ever reason. And the fanciest exclusive SSC comes up with won't change that. The squeaky wheel gets the grease, so, If any of you have to cancel orders in the near future, I strongly suggest you make use of the 'nifty' feature they have on the site: tell them exactly why they are loosing these orders!!

I don't think those in the United States need to buy Sideshow statues from anywhere else but home. Most of Sideshows items are sold domestically and along with relatively cheap shipping as well. They have a healthy purchasing and reselling environment, so looking overseas to purchase rarely is required.
That would suck if true but i'm sure they have way too many customers in europe to not want to sell to and that would be a lot of sales lost.

They did alright before they opened the European Warehouse. I expect they know how much their business increased, from that time, and would get a fairly good idea of how much they stand to loose. With the economy being stymied, it is likely the Euro warehouse was no longer viable.
How long has it been open?

If not many europeans ordered from them they wouldn't have opened a european warehouse in the first place would they? i guess we'll only know when/if they post and tell us.
