In addition,

PCS has always had the policy that if a collector wants to arrange their own shipping , they can.

If we are shipping Fed Ex and you want USPS, you can request that. And vice versa.

Also you can just send us a shipping label.

We arent trying to make money on shipping, but we dont want to lose money either.

Just talking about statues: I never received a statue without them checking what's inside.

When you have to pick it up at the customs office then they ask you to open it in front of them. Then you have to show them the invoice. If the guy is in the mood then he is using Google to check if the price is realistic.

Thats when delivered through USPS (DHL within Germany).

When delivered through UPS or FedEx then they do it without you and just deliver the package.

I anticipate a frustrating back&forth between me and customs coming up. Once I ordered some cheap stuff from China 50€ worth and they wanted to charge me 55€ in customs. I said keep it I'm not paying over 100% import and they kept calling me once a week lowering the % and I kept giving them the finger until they dropped to about 15€ and I paid up. Obviously I'm not in a position to be able to do the same with 1:3 Akuma but it's odd that there seem to be no steady rules to how much they can charge.

I am absolutely sure that I read before that it indeed is possible to pick up from them.
