EU and US warehouses - Prime 1

This was just posted by a spokesman on Prime 1's Facebook group. Prime 1 seem to be going big.



"Just some updates for US collectors. Prime1 is in the midst of sorting out their US warehouse. An EU warehouse is also in the plan. Hope that this will ease your issues. Please wait for more official updates."

Sounds like the us Warehouse is almost set up, but the EU warehouse might take a longer time. Looking forward to it, but don't expect it to happen within the next year.

I wonder how this will affect Sideshow sales for P1 product.

How much value do people put on Sideshow rewards over having the security of ordering straight from P1 for almost the same shipping cost?

With eu warehouse and reduced shipping costs, they can gather all orders of the area

My assumption is that Sideshow won’t be offering any new preorders for Prime 1 pieces.

They’ll probably supply their pre-existing preorders, but my guess is nothing new.

It's gotta be rough to showcase consistently better made products from another company. I wonder if Sideshow is actively forgoing their future distribution cut as to not bring more attention to their competition.

It says a lot about how Sideshow feels.

If an EU warehouse means lower shipping costs and zero import tax, then excellent news!

/but budget remains limited to 1 or 2 Prime 1 pieces per year

Indeed, it must be humiliating to churn out overpriced products with bad QC, while your competitor is producing proto quality pieces with good price and QC
