I’ve heard that stores in Europe can be quite expensive, but here the major Australian reseller gets the regular pieces at somewhat reasonable prices. For example in order to get the Ex for the AK Catwoman direct from Sideshow, it would cost me an additional not so insubstantial amount on top of what I’m paying for the regular locally. So while the store isn’t exactly a store front, but more of a local online reseller there are major potential savings by buying locally for me. It’s pretty much the biggest/only reseller here so it probably has economies of scale and they probably save a bundle with having everything shipped via container ship.
