It's $14 to ship it about 100 miles for me. I would love to support them being they're so close, but I like the reward program through SSC better. Then there's the 7% sales tax.

Sigh, Im still on the fence about getting this....really good but Im hoping there's gonna be a modern version later on. sigh! Hot toys seems to be coming out with way too much good stuff too soon!

Nice - so since this is Q4 that means I don't have to cancel my Mark V anymore 
The 5% reward points from SSC against the 2% reward points at AE is the win.
SSC is $169.99 shipped with 5% reward points ($8.50 value).
AE is $167.98 shipped with 2% reward points ($3.00 value cause they round to nearest $50.00).
I wish AE would go to the free shipping and 10% discount, but SSC it is.

When I add shipping from AE, it is still cheaper than Sideshow's price before tax.
Sideshow really sucks if you live in Cali.Exactly how I feel about Sideshow, plus add the fact that they charge more for the figure.I learned my lesson being from Ohio ordering through them. Have to pay shipping PLUS sales tax.

I know AE will pack the Hot Toys Shipper into another box with padding. SSC just ships the shipper. Rather have to wait the few more weeks for it, then to hope it doesn't get cruch during shipping.
Plus I live in Calif.

the last couple things that I've ordered from AE didn't have sales tax
I love when that happens! I'm saving up my rewards points for the Sauron PF!
By the way....how can some say this figure looks nothing like Evans? Pretty close to me with the helmet on!

I don't normally keep the brown shipper and if there's any problem, SSC is good about replacing/following up. For me, the free shipping alone cancels out most places right now--brillant promotion from SSC, IMO.

Shipping for me put the price damn near equal, So i went with SS and the fact I have more points with them is better for me too.

looks great, I was tempted to order just so I can flip it, I know this will be expensive in a year or so. But I passed, didn't want to worry about it.

I am going through BBTS and added it to my my pile of loot since I can't get the free shipping with SS.

So is Sideshow offering free shipping on all HT figures now if you pre-order?
