What is a Reasonable Price for Grey PF Hulk?

[SolidLiquidFox]

$800 to $850 shipped sounds reasonable. I don't think people understand the regular-Joe shipping prices non-dealers have to pay for this one.

Yeah, shipping on this thing is crazy.

50.00 tops. Maybe less from UPS. 700.00 shipped seems a pretty good deal. Above that and you're just helping set precedence. I was offered one yesterday for 675.00 and I passed. I won't regret it. I can get the Cap premium, Cap vs Skull, and a couple 1/6 figs for the price.

It is a nice piece and I am glad I do have one, but I wouldn't pay 800 for it if I didn't have it. I like Hulk, but only for 500 or less

$50 tops for shipping? Please do tell me where I can ship and find that deal because all i've been quoted is $100+

Buy the green and get Les or DA to repaint it. the gain in value should more than cover the cost of their services

Yes, please share because at 50 pounds I doubt FedEx or UPS are that cheap for a non-retailer.

Don't mind Customizer folks....he is afterall special. The inbred genetic part of him tends to set him back a tiny bit.

I just shipped a 1/6 Tiger Tank in a wooden crate 4 feet by 3 feet by 2 feet weighing 90+ pounds from MI to NY for 77.00 That included 1100.00 insurance. Just calculated 40 pounds from MI to CA. 45.64 Shorter distances would be significantly cheaper. Anyone that pays more than 50.00-60.00 shipping on this in the lower 48 is a sucker. Dannie's one all the time though.

Can't afford a grey hulk and that grocery bill.

customizer which shipping company did you use for that? Any Idea how much they would charge me to ship PF Hulk from North Dakota to Hawaii?

 

[customizerwannabe]

Problem with your shipping Nash is you cannot go ground to Hawaii. Yours will always be higher. I was using UPS. Fedex wouldn't ship the crate for me as I don't have a store. Their price is similar to UPS though. For Hawaii you're looking at triple normal ground price.

Shipping via USPS from California to Ohio $80 of this was the oversize fee

 

[customizerwannabe]

The old addage is USPS likes little packages, and UPS likes big ones. The larger pf's should always go UPS if possible. The rates are much cheaper. 40lbs Pasadena to Cleveland via ups ground is 47.56

USPS does literally rape you on larger boxes. I hate it when they pull out the tape measure on larger packages. Seems petty but I guess they gotta do what they gotta do.

bro you can ship ground to hawaii, it just takes longer and yes it will cost more than standard ground. any inside info on this?

Do you guys see this high shipping fees affecting the resale value of the PF hulk?

I mean, If I can't swing that kind of cash to ship this guy home to hawaii, i may actually have to sell him off to someone in the continental US just so I don't have to get raped on shipping fees to keep him man I hope it doesnt come to that, but worse case scenario, what are your guys thoughts on me selling him off in around August of this year? Will I lose out on making my money back?

They may call it ground, but it can't happen. As you well know you gotta fly it or float it to Hawaii. The charge reflects this. I have friends at both UPS and USPS, but I think you're looking at a lot no matter who you go with. Hard to say where the green fella will end up. The grey is as good as gold no matter when you sell. Dr. Doom is a testament to that. There will probably be a bit of a price drop on the green once the "newness" of the figure wears off, but I expect it will rebound. Prices on most of the Star Wars PF's are at or below original retail, so nothing is a guarantee. Personally I would sell a Green before paying over 100.00 to ship it, unless it was a must have for me. If I knew I was going to sell him, I would do it now rather than later.

when you measure a box to get the "total" amount of inches, how do you do this?

Do you just wrap the tape measure all the way around the width, height, and length....then total all those up?

The grey agreeably so will not likely drop but the green I feel will just keep rising in price. There are way less Hulks out there than Dooms and look at Doom's price now. Furthermore, look at the reaction to the Hulk, I haven't heard one negative thing about this bad boy. I bet the price will rise on green.

For which shipping service?
