I really hope RingsideC2 are reading these comments. If they switched their ways of shipping and not killing us on duties they would do much better business north of the border. Win win situation for us and them.

Got my big order from Ringside on Friday, timing wasn't bad, 3 days and I picked the cheapest shipping rate. It's the $39 plus for shipping and $34 plus in taxes and brokerage fees that is the issue. Add in exchange and you really have want what they are offering to pay the extra. I've had 4 orders this month from shop Mattel, not had to pay any shipping on any of the orders and have not had to pay duty once. The Mattel orders came through Canada Post, as opposed to a courier like UPS, which may be the reason for no charges at the border. usually my ringside packages come through Canada Post, but I think that may be because I usually only order 1/2 figures at a time. (meaning small boxes) this time I ordered 7, 2 of which being BattlePacks. I assume it has to do with how big the box is.

I feel like we could all try to PM RingsideC2 and try to get a response. Im pretty sure you can have multiple participants in a PM. I'll check if its possible in a bit, if yall are down.

Win win situation for us and them. Honestly, I doubt they care. They have one way to ship it and that's it. A lot of American's don't even know that we get hit with brokerage and fees and such like we do. So they won't change it to satisfy the few Canadian's that order off the site, for the many that do in the USA.

Well I remember WWE Shop used to ship using DHL which was decent...but ever since they started shipping with Canada Post, I have ordered from them multiple times a year. The last time I placed an order with RSC was something like summer of 2013. Sucks too because I've had to pass on a lot of figures that are exclusive to RSC.
If RSC Exclusive figures were available to purchase by any other means, I wouldn't even bother ordering from Ringside at all because of how they choose to ship to Canada....it's just too much money unfortunately.
Lastly, the main reason I even brought this up is because I feel like this issue is something we'd have better luck asking RSC to look at as opposed to getting UPS to stop charging brokerage fees. Come on RSC, you have people willing to spend money here! Show us some love and we'll reciprocate right back!

Made the trip down to Blaine, WA to pick up my Black Friday package from Ringside which consisted of exclusives(NWO Sting, NWO Nash and the Nation of Domination 2 Pack), the NWO Ring Skirt,and the ASR/Classic Cage combo.
Did a bit of figure hunting as well, and picked up the Crash Cage Playset, the Walgreens DX HBK, and the TRU Network Spotlight Bayley.
I also came across, but didn't buy: Gamestop Exclusive Brock, the WWE/TMNT Walmart Exclusives, and Elite 45 (except Luger) in case there's anyone from BC heading to Washington State (Lynnwood/Marysville area) over the holidays and wondering what's in stores.

Looks like Basics are $8 on boxing day I wonder if they would refund the difference if I bought other basics within the last 30 days. Also I wish they put the elites on sale. They need to clear those out bad.
