Why would sideshows shipping rates not also go up like there prices on statues,almost everyone is gonna pay it.Sideshow customers deserve exactly what they get and what they are charged.If I was them why would I stop increasing prices,most collectors are so weak and addicted,they will just keeping paying to play.
 
Wow, you're are an angry elf aren't you? Most shipping companies increased their rates earlier this year.

Yeah, UPS dimensional shipping weights have been the main culprit for higher prices compared to last year.
 
Here's a note from most wanted collectibles in their March 2015 newsletter:

"Also, we are trying a table rate system on shipping and had to change some pricing on some items.The shipping changes that went into effect from UPS/FedEx have really increased shipping costs unfortunately.Most of the items that used to ship based on actual weight are now being billed at the dimensional weight. This means the volume weight of the box is being used. In some cases items that may've been billed at 4 lbs previously are now being billed for 16 lbs due to the size of the box.I'd say it's the biggest rate increase ever since I've been shipping items."
 
Sorry for bumping this with more non-Lobo talk, but does SSC ship UPS or FedEx? UPS always breaks fragile stuff delivered to my house. And they ignore must-sign instructions and abandon boxes on my porch.

Majority of the stuff I get from them is from UPS. You can call and ask to have them ship it by FedEx though.
 
Doesn't big companies always get much better rates as well? But anyways I need to put money in my 400.00 account asap. Or I won't get lobo or the dog. I'm broke, any discounts if I call ss letting them know I bought too many this month. Maybe they will feel sorry for me buying too many and give me free shipping or something? Worth a shot?

FedEx is the default for international shipping - and the prices Sideshow charge are the best in the business, due to careful negotiation with FedEx.

I would never criticise Sideshow on THIS part of their service.

Yeah I agree BurningRage... Officially added him to the ignore list after that quote. So tired of reading posts like these.

That makes total sense...Sideshow should reward you with free shipping & other generous discounts for your inability to properly manage your finances. After Sideshow provides you and other over-extended customers with your own personal "bail outs", feel free to come back and thank your fellow collectors for covering / subsidizing your various "discounts".

You're welcome...

:cuckoo: :slap

If everyone would add him to the ignore list we could go on talking like real people. I gave CBG a chance back in the day... But he is either doing this on purpose for his own amusement or he really is a fool. Either way I have tired of his posts.

I'm OK reading CBG's as he really IS that smart - it's just plenty of folks round here don't get it. He plays people like a fiddle. Love the dude.

Ironically - I DO have YOU on my ignore list - don't get me wrong - you're a great guy but I have a collection of folks that have movie-gifs blocked (yeah - I STILL haven't got round to seeing the Avengers / Ultron movie! :slap ) so only view your posts when I can put my hand over the screen to hide the gifs :lol

See the Avengers movie next Tuesday - I can unblock a few of you after that :hi5:
