It looks like Sideshow has raised their shipping costs??!

Its this whole "Dimensional Weight" BS couriers are now hitting shippers with. They don't go off the weight as much as the box dimensions. The actual package could weight just 15lbs but if it ships in a box thats say 24X24X20 they'll charge you as if it was 60lbs. Its stupid.

That's pretty hilarious. I didn't know he was such a ladies man.

No it really doesn't. Especially when you consider they encourage you to protect the items you're shipping. This whole Dimensional Weight thing actually penalizes you for that now and actually encourages people to reduce the size of their shipping boxes.

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

Ok, so i take back what i said earlier about the shipping. Turns out shipping was only 14. I guess sideshow pre authorized my card for 295 but final invoice said it was only 285. sorry for jumping the gun.
