Re: Official Sideshow Batman PF
It's actually no cheaper buying from Sideshow these days TBH
Once you factor in shipping at $60 Bats is $460
Convert that at $1.5 to the £ you get a shipped price of £306.67 then add on the VAT @ 20% (£61.33) & Fedex fee of £10 Batman will have actually cost you about £378.00 from Sideshow.
So roughly £28 more than Mothers Basement
Although all that said if you do go for MB you can only get the standard edition & IMO the extra £28 he'll cost from Sideshow is worth it for the EX

Looks like Sideshow is the best option then.
Mothers basement is £350. Who is crazy enough to order from them when you can get it directly from Sideshow cheaper, months earlier and with reward points and peace of mind should anything go wrong

Sadly the Ex is sold out so if i order from SS it will be the reg but
Figure = $400
VAT = $80
Shipping = $57.97
Last time i ordered from SS i wasn't charged VAT on the shipping so the total is $537.97 which at today's exchange rate is £332. + £10.50 for Fedex that would make the total from SS £342.50.

Re: Official Sideshow Batman PF
Yeah I know I got my EX in as soon as the P/O's went up
I work in a Freight Forwarders & unfortunately Shipping should be included in the VAT calculations as it is a VATABLE charge.
Not saying it is always done but it should be lol
I would actually consider going through Mothers Basement with a difference that small.
At least you have a UK point of call.
I know SS are all kinds of awesome with issues but I just find it's always a bit easier working with people in the same country as you.
I actually only use SS because I want the EX with the difference's being so small now if it wasn't for the EX I'd probably use a UK seller these days.

Re: Official Sideshow Batman PF
I can understand canceling the regular, but not the EX. You're waving bye-bye to an item you could easily get an extra couple of bucks on by reselling it.
Watch, it IS released next month. It's like Lucy decided to finally keep the football down for you.

Re: Sideshow Batman PF?
My sideshow account still says shipping Dec 5, I shall assume this week's newsletter will confirm that is not happening.

Safe assumption. In fact, I will confirm that for you right now.

Yep.

Man waiting for him is giving me a headache. All I can say is they better ship him before putting the Keaton Batman up for PO.

If sideshow actually sent out shipping/charge notices, you would of heard thousands of voices yell out "about ****ing time".
I haven't heard them yet.
