Post here when you've successfully pre-ordered CG

[Fug-Lee-Faces]

+2 for me!!

For you people freaking out about shipping costs....
Seriously, I'm all about hating on Matty However, their shipping prices are usually spot on (now, their TIME in shipping is another story...)

I have shipped a TON of stuff international, and I can say that I will guarantee the CGs cost over $100 to ship. I shipped a 30"x16"x15" box from USA to Germany that weighed 10 pounds and it cost me something like $150.

I was charged $36 to ship TWO CGs and I think that is reasonable (Im in USA, of course)

I really do feel bad for international fans, as the shipping is a killer. However, when I order things from Japan I get his with similar shipping. It sucks, but it is just a sad fact of collecting. On these shipping costs, I just can't fault Matty. Go to USPS.com and you can estimate package costs. I think you will find their shipping is usually spot on.

Shipping seems to have changed. Matty now says $94.30 UPS International for one Castle

[Draego-Man]

Well, well well...

This morning shipping to Canada was $70.25, so I didn't order. Just checked it again and guess what????....

Order Date: October 16, 2012

Nice one Matty!!!

Looks like they reduced the shipping expense. So International fans should take another look.

Got mine!!!

I just ordered 3 and the total shipping USPS came to $48 to Pennsylvania.

Well, I'm all set. What the heck, right? Not gona get the chance again, I expect. Sad thing with the international shipping, though. Can't say how far we'll get without any help there.

Funny thing was that when I originally looked at it, USPS was 36, but when I went back to actually make the preorder it was 19 something. I tried out UPS and it was only 20 something! I've never seen such a small change between the two...

They have changed shipping costs on the website. It was $50+ for UPS to Texas a couple of hours and now it's only $22.34. Hopefully this helps the international folk too

anyone know then the meter for counting the pre-orders go live? or has it already ?cus I don't see it moving

[TJRules]

I just preordered mine, and had the confirmation e-mail come through about five minutes later. Did you go with the Newgistics/USPS shipping? I opted for UPS Ground, and mine came out to $56. Still, I'm awfully excited!

Yeah, went with Newgistics. I may regret it in the long run, but oh well. At least I have a chance to get one! SOOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED!

In light of all the recent posts about Shipping coming down, I'm guessing (hoping) that these rates will be applied to all orders, regardless of when they were placed, when (hopefully) shipping time comes.

Long Live MOTU!!!!
Now & Forever!!!!

+1 for me on this awesome CG. Shipping was less than $20 for me. And I live in the heartland. Total was $269.95

This is DR we are talking about. Good luck with that!

I wonder if the totals on those of us who already ordered will be lowered to reflect this new total.
I ordered 2, which was $571.65... just checked total remained the same...

Now, 2 are ... $536.85 ...soooo... do I get a order change/update??? Or am I just out $34.80 extra just because I was a more dedicated customer and I ordered sooner??

[Alexx]

You only live once, my brother! Might as well go for it! I can't wait to set up this bad boy!

Wait a second - you're right! I DO only live once! Well then, I think it's high time I have a Castle Grayskull to mount on top of my car!

...okay maybe that's a little TOO much livin'. Perhaps someday in the future, Castle Grayscar will be a reality...

Probably.

[Benedict Judas Hel]

Yup, did a trial pre-order in the morning and USPS shipping was $38. Now I did a trial pre-order and the USPS shipping was now $20. So I did the order with UPS Ground. It was only a $1 more.

Wanna do the Nelson "Ha ha!" pic here, Replikator but it would seem a little too cruel.

A question for who as already ordered him, they keep money on CC or not?

[Hemotoggy]

Ordered One, now lets wait and see.

[robaczek]

+1 ;-) Let's see what happens now ;-)

[chuc98]

Is the goal meter ever gonna update?

Oh, Benny's NOT being cruel today. Getting soft, are we?

Shipping was only $36 to Ohio. However, UPS was $56. This thing better go through.

I am also from Ohio and chose the cheaper shipping option. I think tax was $37.58 which I don't think is the correct amount at all but whatever...

Can't wait to set this thing up. A Talon Fighter with Point Dread would be a really cool add on

[Stickfa]

this.


Why isnt it coded to update as the orders come in? .... it's not that hard to do at all. Need a populated database and a little flash know-how and bam .... infographic that updates in real time ...... 2012 here people.

Mine was the same price and I ordered mine like 10 minutes ago. Mine was right around $574.43 for 2 shipped with cheap USPS shipping. Tax was $37.58. I am sure KY has that new internet sales tax law too.

Nah, TJules. It's just that Replikator's main love is MOTU and it's being cruel enough to him without my help.

[hauke]

Just ordered one to Germany for Shipping & Handling: $94.30. Funnily the trackable option was cheaper then the non-trackable option. I hope this is not another Digital river screw up and I end up with a non-trackable shipment.
