Now that’s obviously total BS.
It’s not even logical. You’re limiting the amount you’re giving out and somehow you’re giving out more.

Yes that’s an outright lie. Kind of like they aren’t charging triple for shipping.

Yep like when they lied and said it took 7 minutes for a code to be used up, when it actually took less than a minute.

I've checked the shipping, it's actually cheaper through Sideshow than if you did it yourself.
The codes, that's a different story.

And I would expect it to be since companies typically get a corporate discount.
With that being said, there have been (on these boards) examples where the evidence points to SSC charging more than what it actually costs them to ship it.

From what I've seen they're charging about 40% of normal cost. I don't know what their discount is, but and I don't know what "evidence" people have, but 60% below normal retail shipping is fine with me.

I think there have been inconsistencies, especially with bigger pieces, where a Prime 1 piece for example sent to the east coast was less expensive than the same piece sent to the midwest. I can't pull up an example but I know I've read angry posts on this forum debating it.

I don’t think they were applying any discounts for their Prime 1 pieces. At least they weren’t when their relation was going downhill.
There were people on the forums running the calculations on courier websites on some pieces and Sideshow was charging more to ship the items to them. Heck some were cheaper to get shipped direct from Prime 1.
