Canadian MOTUC Shipping Discussion

My day-of order arrived today. Sweden sticker on it. I'm surprised it didn't take longer actually......

Got Rattlor, Poison Ivy, Cy-Chop, and weapons pack.

So close to finishing my UK Horde Prime, all I need now is to find someone willing to sell/trade a Horde arm band. (I had to use the one with my Rattlor for Hordak, as my loose Hordak I bought off of eBay was convienently missing his arm band:homad:




....anyways, I posted my order # & the fact it arrived w/ Swedish stickers in the zig zag thread.
Also asked about the Swedish issue on the Matty Collector MOTUC questions thread on Monday, and it was the only one ignored that day by TG.:hmsad:

If my rattlor has one you can have it, I'm firmly against rattlor as a hordesman.

Awesome! I'm sending you a PM...... also regarding your mass contacting Mail on the Move idea, sounds like a great idea we may want to try. If we all contacted them directly, I wonder if that would at least get some answers. My main question would be how could sending our stuff to Sweden with all international orders possibly be cheaper than simply sending it straight up North over the border?

Yup. Still waiting here in Montreal for my October figures. Grrrr. This really is ridiculous. A whole month. Every. Single. Time. Like, why the poop would they even need to be going through Sweden??? Ugh!

Hang in there, packages are starting to show up. I got my weapons pack and extra Frosta today. Still waiting on the He-Man/Battle Cat combo and sub order though.

Wow...I was going to go with cheap shipping for this month's figures, but now you guys have me thinking twice about that. Imagine it getting delayed in all the holiday traffic and making the wait even longer (I've never had much luck with November figures). Remember when Scareglow took two months? :hmshift:

Was Scareglow two months? Dang. Totally forgot about that.

At this point, I don't expect figures to arrive before the next sale date.

Since October was a big month I shipped to Point Roberts in Washington state and drove across the border to pick them up. They didn't bother charging me for customs and I got them way sooner. For anyone else in BC in the lower mainland, I definitely recommend doing this if you can. I'm probably only going to get Castle Grayskullman this month, so not really sure if it's worth it for one figure.

I'm still waiting for my day-of figure as well. Sigh! I think I should get it sometimes next week...that seem to be how things works these days

Got my weapons pack today in Toronto, woot.

I am using post this month, just Randor and Ray so I expect delivery in January with the holiday crunch since the USPS is already running behind.

No DOS Frosta, Cy-Chop or Weapons Pak for me yet...I DID happen to order Rattlor and Mekaneck from an .Orger and got it 10 days later...just sayin'

Same thing happen to me. I got a Rattlor from a US member and got it maybe 2 weeks ago....up to now my October day-of figure still haven't arrive! It's really frustrating toyguru ignores all our inquiries

it is funny don't you think...:sklol: there is 20 questions all answered and then there is our shipping questions same day ignored.. not even a "looking into it" i can only laugh i guess.. helps me from doing something else:hmlol:

No sub or day of weapons pack for me yet. This is insane!!!!!! What is taking so long????????

Yup. Annoying. Especially considering it's Friday today. Which means, since I work during the day, I only ever get a 'delivery notice' to go pick up my parcel(s) at the post office at my local pharmacy the next day! That could mean I'd only be holding those stunning bits of plastic on Monday!!

Still, I'd rather Monday than much later in the week!!

Let's go, Canada Post, c'mon!!

;)

No day-of for me yet, either. This is honestly just stupid.

Shoppers Drug Mart? You should be able to pick up on Saturday. A little trick the lady at the locals Shoppers told me is that if you go in after 5pm (same day as the notice) your parcel should be there. It's never failed me yet doing that.

I went in at 3pm same day once and my package was there.

It all depends on the area though.... for instance some areas in Ottawa the parcels that coincide with the delivery notice card's barcode you get aren't dropped off at the Shoppers (or wherever) until the following morning before 11, or in the case of Fridays they may not be dropped off until Monday before 11.
Just be prepared for it to possibly not be there yet is all....

Thanks to DR/Mail On The Move/Matty, shouldn't we say 'Let's go Swedish Post, c'mon!!':hmlol:

Sweet, the He-Man/Battle Cat combo came in today, now here's hoping that the sub order comes in on Monday.

So I checked the mail today and...nothing. Still no day of sale.

No DOS for me either. What's weird is that I got my DC sub items like 3 weeks ago, and the DOS shipped only 5 days after that.

No October sub for me yet. :(

I thought for sure i'd get my stuff yesterday ... nothing .... I am waiting for like 8 things between matty and ebay .... and nothin ..... Im thinking it has to be Sandy .... otherwise I need to start phoning places.
