FWIW my Vader is coming FedEx... I received a separate shipping notice from Sideshow-it does not show up in the "orders" section.

I assume you're talking about the Vader VCD. You will fall over when you see how large and heavy that friggin box is! It's like getting a PF! The funny thing is, once you take the VCD out and pack up the empty box, it is still really heavy...

Got my monkey today, they are the ape seargent with the big m printed on them for those who got one. I'll post pics when I'm able, but I'm moving in three weeks so you may have to wait a bit. He's kinda cute, glad I picked it over the catalog. Thanks again to BG for helping me out with this one.

Anybody else get a call from UPS telling you that your package is going to be delivered the next day as scheduled? First time I have ever had that happen, but I also havent had anything shipped from UPS in awhile so it might be new

Depends on how the package was shipped, how much info the shipper gave. I've had it happen before, but not every package has done it.

Yeah I got that call too for the first time ever. I figured since it needed a sig they were letting me know to be home.

If you have a local UPS store nearby, you can get UPS to redirect the package to that store, where they will hold it for you.

It will cost something like $5 each time you have this done. If you rent one of their PO boxes (smallest is like $9 a month), then package holds are free.

Local one is around 20 mins from my house, but If I miss them on friday Ill just have someone run by Monday morning and pick it up for me while Im at class. Usually what I end up having to do

They did that when the Tick was on it's way.

Anytime buddy. Unless there's a different BG.


I got the call from Jennifer today, who let me know my win was on its way. She then said..."you know how this works right? You've won before?" I responded with: 'a bunch', and she said, "I thought your name looked familiar."

Haha...welllll. I may have won a handful of things, but I have also spent a small fortune on ssc items.

I get that phone call all the time! I think they started doing that about a year ago... I think they only try to call once, so if your phone is off, or you don't answer, then you won't ever hear the recording...

Is there really such a thing as a SMALL fortune? Yeah, I think we'd all have a lot of money saved toward our retirement fund if we didn't buy Sideshow! But life just wouldn't be as fulfilling!

Vlad is home next to Blackbeard where he belongs.

See my post on the prior page about redirecting to a UPS store.

You could also have them hold it at the distribution facility and go pick it up there...that is a pain for me as the facility is about an hour away, thanks to traffic.
