But their markup doesn't seem that bad compared to potential shipping costs from XM. Magdalena, for example, is 1199SGD from XM, which converts to $891 USD. Secret Compass is charging $995. So, an extra $104. They quote that 1/4 scale statues ship within the US for $20-$30. Seems like a much better deal than paying XM's shipping.
BBTS, on the other hand, is charging $1449 for Magdalena, which is outrageous.

GFX is similarly priced to Secret Compass, as well. But, upon checking just now, it seems their preorders have sold out recently. Probably after the convention. lol

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Gfx quoted me at $157 for shipping for the ultimate swordsman so what would singpore shipping be? $157.00 holy sh$t how are you guys justifying 400 shipping xm pieces as I've heard that's how much it can go up too.

Not yet. Specfictionshop has them listed, but they're passing the high shipping costs from XM on to the customer.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.
