You get the shipping info before they ask for bank info (it also says German Bank Accounts only?) so you can find out that way... also if anyone is going to get these for a send-out please PM me as well.  :love:

I don't get it - in the help it says credit card... then on checkout only bank account :( 

Tried to order 10, shipping was 23EUR. Expensive.

Please count me in too if ordering.

Hmm, shipping inside germany is quite expensive as well...
...for 10 items 8€ shipping, for 20 you pay 12€.  ::)

yep its very expensive.. but 1 figure in the box worldwide recorded cost 5.50 euro also around £5. thats right. even in the eu.

 :eh?:  People who resell them, or actually want an exclusive set. There are members in here who try to make money off reselling sets to different markets
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

What would happen if we each could order 5 through Daniela if there are enough available? We could pay her with Paypal or whatever, and she could buy them direct. Then she could offer them to us without the boxes at one shipping cost and with the boxes at another shipping cost....sending them to one person in each country to save on shipping. Then they would send them on to each of us boxed or not boxed after we Paypalled that person the shipping?

If we are buying them for our own personal use, many of us may not need the box and can save on shipping that way. And the cost of the figure alone does sound reasonable at 2.99E. Daniela gets the quantity discount which helps lower shipping costs, too. I have bought quite a few Klickies off ebay.de lately, and the shipping charges have been from 5-10E for 5-25 Klickies without insurance, which I don't need. So this could save all of us a bundle of money on shipping.

This also would prevent resellers from selling so many at 20-30USD on ebay, which is a real shame for all of us. And could assure us of getting them if they sell out soon, which I think that they will. Feedback? Pgal

That sounds great as long as the end price is lower than the scalpers  :-\

If I got your idea correctly,

Person 1 buys them at the store.
Person 1 ships them to Person 2 in other country.
Person 2 reships them to person 3-9 ?

Ras,
It seems that the end price in the US could be somewhere around 3E for the special itself, maybe 1E from DE to the US, and .5E within the US adding up to 4.5E, or less than 7USD. I would hope it would come to around 6USD or less if we do it this way and there is enough quantity to make it worthwhile for Daniella and Indianna and whoever helps out in other countries This way we benefit from bulk shipping to the US or wherever as that seems to be the highest cost in the current pricing structure.

We would need to reimburse both of these ladies for any gas and shipping materials costs so they don't have to spend any of their own funds making this work, incl. Paypal fees. So the quantity discount at the museum store could help cover those costs.

This looks like a lovely figure! It would be great if we could move soon on this before some scalper orders them and we are out of luck.

Maybe we could each let Daniela know how many we each want so she could give us a quote and we could pay ASAP and get the items bought before they disappear. I would love to have 10 if they are available; if not 5 would do in the first round.  If we set a deadline for ordering from Daniela, like September 7th, a week from now, she could then give us a quote on the bulk shipping out of DE for each of our countries. Then if we could each pay within the following week, she could actually buy them on  Sept. 16th.

In the pst month it has been taking about a week for my five different ebay.de purchases to arrive in the States, so shipping should be pretty quick at the regular level of service. Not sure about how long other countries/continents take to receive small packages from DE, but I have been very pleased with DE shipping so far.

Feedback folks? Daniela and Indianna, does this sound doable at your ends? We really appreciate your helping with this lovely figure! Cheers, Pgal :wave:
