The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Try usps or dhl.

When shipping my deadpool pf from usa to China it was cheaper for me to use usps than fed ex or ups. Not sure about singapore.

Try FedEx. That's where I got my rate from.

And are they doing the shipping charge based on weight OR box dimensions? Because I do believe FedEx does it by the dimensions only.

EDIT: I just checked that on FedEX and I'll be damned if it doesn't say I should have paid around $600. There must be something that the shippers have to discount the rate that we don't know.

If you use Singpost (Singapore's Mailing company), the cost for Phoenix or Thanos is $309 SGD.

Singpost is another option for you to check.

I think I already stated that a lot of the shippers are using corporate rates to get these out for only ~$300

Wow I'd have a heart attack if I got a shipping bill for that much after the fact. Echoing what everyone else said, mine was $237 USD from Singapore to AZ via FedEx. You probably could have flown to Singapore round trip and checked it as bag and been cheaper than $850. Sorry man that sucks.

There is some overcharging going on with shipping XM statues from Singapore.. I have a honest contact over there and he shipped me Phoenix for $230 FedEx.... Anything over $250 and they're pocking the difference IMO....

Corporate or not, $850 is insane..... criminal. I just got Phoenix and Wolverine shipped together by Fed Ex for $390.

Never ever use UPS for shipping abroad. They do fraudulent pricing on innocent people. That's well known. Even if you ship from Canada abroad its crazy high compared to other companies.

850 - Absolutely not. Keep it. If I had a whistle I'd blow it! RAPE
