Weta doesn’t do combine shipping. My two Torturer statues cost almost $90 to ship (NYC). If i was paying full price for these two statues, I highly doubt I would have gone through with it.

I have a feeling there will be some issues during shipment, some units oversold, etc.

Someone on the Flame forum also ordered two Torturers and received two Orcs of Dol Guldur.
I'm still waiting for a reply from Weta..

Got it. Ended up placing my first order through them for three mini statues and some prints. I justified the $65 shipping cost in my mind since it’s a long way to ship to Florida. 😊

That’s why I only order larger statues from wets at least the shipping is then somewhat justified even though they are still very expensive

Shipping for smaller items are completely unreasonable. I remember ordering a bunch 1/6 dwarfs paid near $30 each for shipping and they arrived in 1 box with just color display box and individual shipper removed. That box probably cost $40 to ship max and I got charged $120 for shipping and they got rid of the shippers.

Only way weta move any sales in volume nowadays is through those heavy discounts, while they are great it creates a very negative reputation for the company in that no one is going to risk buying their products at full price which in term further feeds this until the whole thing collapses.

Ps Anyone got their Rivendell yet?

My Torturer statues and the soldier are going to be shipped out today. Just got the notice a few minutes ago.
