I spoke with Ant as well, who also said this was a mistake.

So yeah, unfortunately it seems paying gargantuan shipping costs for a less than well known character was NOT expected.

And yeah, I was willing to drop the sticker price on the set. But unfortunately with this shipping the price is over 2K. Sorry, that?s too much.

My LCBS has a graded copy of AMSM #129. I?ll probably just go grab that instead.

My frame of mind isn?t good over this set. Didn?t mean to be rude.
No problem at all. I saw on FB that Ant stated it as an error ($2k shipped!). My time spent with this hobby is probably to blame as I'll unquestionably accept any price that the manufacturer throws our way

I?ve been collecting for a long time too. But when it makes no sense, it just makes no sense.

I don?t want to pay ludicrous shipping to have two statues in one box.

The signature van damme statue sets didn?t ship in the same package! How insane would that be.

They clearly have the ability to ship them separately? they do it for other sets.

You?re literally paying over DOUBLE the shipping to have a gigantic box at your house.

In your case Joppula you might as well cancel your order and just order Hugo and Poison separately.

I somewhat wonder if it might be worth it to just cancel the set and sell them separately to begin with? I guess for PCS it doesn't make a difference as this is more of a shipping issue. As someone who wants these statues I do wonder if it increases my chances of snagging them (or at least Hugo) off a Daily Deal.

I'm really sorry this happened to you, Joppula. You've been super excited for this for so long only to have it all crash down with shipping.

I hope Ant or someone from PCS can somehow work some magic on this for you.

Sorry to hear, you have been super excited for a Hugo to get burned by ridiculous shipping prices.

Thanks buddy, long time no talk btw! Hope all is well?

Yeah, if this were a single item that could ONLY ship in a single box I would understand. Prices are what they are.

The fact is they are not, they are two separate boxes thrown into one giant box that is over doubling the price!

Hopefully ant can get this fixed. Because it?s a punishment to anyone who wanted the set.

Yeah hopefully this can be resolved. It's a $200 difference without any upside
