Sideshow 1/6 C-3PO

[Solo_bones]

I watched the video for C3-PO and he looked great next to R2 when he was below the sand level R2 was on. They knew it was off scale a tad.

I also saw the figure on sale at Disneyland...it looked great. I didn't realize Bens table had a seam as well.

 

[CaptnRex]

Is that how much it ends up? Jeebus.... I've been flexing my OT figures and refusing to add it all up at month's end. Sadly the dollar is historically about right. That glorious period of above-parity won't ever be repeated.

At close to $400 I'll have to stick with my Tamashii which I'm totally fine with. Having both isn't worth it.

My C-3PO should be here next week. But I just can't seem to make him stand next to Sideshow R2-D2.
Specially R2 looks great with a Medicom C-3PO...

I just called SS and cancelled your order number.

Same here. The way things have turned out with the exchange rate, Oz collectors who picked up the Tamashii on or near release ended up paying less than this version.

Pricey shipping on this one...was more than Vader.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Yeah. I really don't like how SS is over-charging for their Exclusive items to ship.

 

[WWEJedi]

Yeah. I really don't like how SS is over-charging for their Exclusive items to ship.

I got refunded $2 and some cents last time on Jango Fett Ex. Not worth it for a second time, guess they didn't take my advice......

How and why?

 

[FlyAndFight]

$18.63 shipping for me. That is absurd.

I have $16.92 and I live 20 miles from Sideshow, not 3000.

 

[zipstore]

$20.64 to Nevada....

 

[WWEJedi]

How and why?

I complained to SSC live chat. Dimensions were wrong on there site, so they offered me the difference of the ex Jango and regular Jango, which was $2 and some cents. I took it. Basically it was a waste of time.

 

[Wor-Gar]

There's no way with the amount of packages they ship out, being primarily a distributor, that they don't have a good shipping arrangement with Fed Ex and UPS.

Hell, I can ship stuff back to them for half what they charge me, and I'm not doing tons of business with the shippers.


But hey, it is what it is. Thankfully a lot of HT stuff is $10 ship.

 

[Glennfett]

$30USD to ship most 1/6th items to Australia.The currency conversion kills.sigh

 

[Arycon]

$18.63 here. It has gone up quite a bit for me also. Shipping soon though. I am sure tomorrow I will get a notice showing that it shipped today. Excited for 3PO to arrive next week!

$21.25 for shipping. What a damn joke. I have a tough time believing they don't profit off of their shipping charges. I know rates went up but for a business like Sideshow that does pretty much all of their business online I have a hard time buying that they aren't able to negotiate a better rate.

They are able. It is a revenue stream for them to charge what they charge.

Are these quotes coming from a shipping notice...?
