Doubt you'll be able to find a better price than from Weta direct. Unless shipping from them is what's deterring you. Every place I know that sells their product it's at the same price as ordering direct only without the Weta Dollars.

FYI - for those on the fence or those hoping this piece would be around come Black Friday and possibly discount eligible (like myself) you might want to make your move now as this just hit "Low Stock!"

That's pretty impressive considering the price and ES. I'm sure the payment plans Weta have launched have helped tremendously but don't expect this piece to be available much longer.

I placed my order just now after noticing the stock alert. Spaced my payments over 5 months so it'll be paid off come March when the piece hits.

All depends on what your definition of “better” is?

Will BBTS come through? It's a huge difference in shipping to Canada via weta compared to a flat $4 rate within the US.Thanks

It's a little over $100 to B.C Canada,or $17 to Blaine,WA which is literally across the border.What a rip off,do US residents get dinged from Weta on import fees?

Gotcha. Kinda figured it was a shipping thing. I’ve never ordered Weta from BBTS so I can’t speak as to whether they get allocated with any regularity or not. It’s always a risk I suppose. Something to consider if the savings warrant taking the chance. I would say this might not be the piece to figure that out on though. Seems far more popular than most. Hitting low stock in 6 Days with an ES of 750 is almost unprecedented with Weta product. That’s not even considering the high end price point.

Thanks for your help HB,thought I had plenty of time for this piece but I guess not.It really is a special one of a kind piece.Do you get dinged on any import charges from Weta?
