Yeah, white is just odd, since their suits are all black.

They don't have economy everywhere, where are you getting it shipped to?

had a look at a couple of options...

Gantz ladies would have come in around $750 plus import, something I'd looked at before but still can't seem to push the button on.

of more interest was Katana, really liked her when first shown and could get her down to $890...then shipping took it back to $1500 again.

I'm going to be sensible and put the saved money towards the one I've already got coming.

nice to see others getting what they want with a bit off the price though..

But then the shipping was almost $1300 (UK still has no economy option) Add that to the import duty and it brings them to about $2562, or $1280 each. That's more than I've seen a few ex versions on Ebay for recently, and they didn't sell...

Good deal if you're local I guess, or even if you've been on the fence with an item in the deal. But it's about time Prime 1 sort out their shipping as at this point they are very clearly inflating it and hiding profit in there.
You probably lucked out. Didn't that piece have a lot of instances of breaks? 1. Good luck getting replacements at this point, and 2. good luck flipping, considering that.

I too tried adding it to my cart LOL. It's a very cool piece, but not $500 shipping cool.

I got 2 transformers statues for a 1000 combined. So not a horrible deal. I guess jazz and ratchet didn’t sell well

got a respond back from P1

"Thank you for your email.

Unfortunately, due to logistical factors, packages under a certain size cannot be shipped via economy to Canada. These regulations may vary based on location, which is why some areas are able to accommodate economy shipping for these items. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your kind support and understanding."

That is why economy isn't available for all
