Sorrow News..

More Sorrow painting. Full steam ahead! Even if this is yet another one
of our most ambitious project facing many challenges, we push on.

I wonder why the painters do not wear gloves?
Good to see Sorrow is nearing the end of a long journey.

The paints are all eco friendly and non toxic to humans...just like when kids chew on crayons...or when you drink a full pitcher of bright red tropical flavored Kool aid...non toxic goodness

Thanks for the update pics.....this had been in my PO list on BBTS for years now.

Toxins?
My concerns were with the statues, getting sweat on them.

I am dreading the shipping + import bill. I bet shipping will be $350+
HMO don't hold back when it comes to box size, they go for massive.
Ren with it's basic disc base design shipping in a massive box. Heavy too.

Good news. Not looking forward to the shipping bill, which i am expecting to be high, given H.M.O's ability to make boxes massive and their pieces heavy. Atleast i finished paying for Sorrow years ago.

Getting Sorrow out the door appears to have provided H.M.O with quite a task.

Not concerned with shipping because i POd this years ago at BBTS and they only charge $4 flat rate shipping....too bad for you guys who POd straight from HMO.....expect your shipping to be a couple of benjamins

I don't know how BBTS do it?
Thinking about it, BBTS would have probably offered a better deal US - UK than HMO - UK
If it is less than $200 then fair enough. It it is $400 then i will be less than happy.
I just hope they find a way to reduced the box size. I recall Ren arriving in a massive box, mainly because the piece breaks down into way too many pieces.

Looking forward to it

Bobby G shipping from HMO (which is likely going to be a much bigger box) was $230 for ocean freight. So if you want DHL/airline shipping yeah it'll be 400+ no doubt. If you can just wait a few weeks I expect <$200.

The shipping price is included in the original list price for the bigger stuff like statues.
