It was $248 when I originally ordered but my shipping quote changed to $931, to Chicago area. I canceled...

I have Doom Slayer Ultimate on order and it currently says $239, I am sure it will change to something crazy when released...

Yea, that is what i'm trying to clarify. I know prime 1 shows the shipping charge during PO but that has been changing when the item actually ships. Shipping is a nightmare right now as you all know. Doing my best to keep costs down.

I hear ya... I have been canceling a ton of orders when shipping is crazy and pretty much stopped ordering anything at this point.

Issue with P1 is they showed this somewhat normal shipping then change it later but will not refund your deposit based on the crazy shipping...

I had the same experience with my 1/4 Jungle Hunter which went to over $1k. I'm not sure how Prime 1 are selling anything currently? They need to get their shipping sorted.

I'm in a battle with FED EX over here at the moment, just got my duty and tax bill for a Prime 1 piece and they also added a Quarantine fee just for ----s and giggles, seems that my Jurassic Park statue is a threat to Australian Border Security. Just a joke at this stage. I'm done ordering overseas. Just local from now on with free shipping. These freight companies can go jump, not getting another dime from me.

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

It sucks the cost is so high on shipping but it is what it is... Sadly everyone in the same boat.

Todd, soon as you have said invoice, please forward along to me - I really can't wait to get this in hand!
