The other well known Figure shop ships free international if you order figures for 150 Dollars.
So the shipping costs from ringside for international customers are a joke .

I might sell my Kane tbh not sure yet Let me know if you decide to. I'd love one, but don't need the hassle of trying to sell and ship another ring I don't want. |

The ringside shipping prices are a blatant scam, to get an AEW ring shipped to Australia it’s $223USD ($330Australian) $330 in shipping is just ridiculous, it clearly cost way less and they’re pocketing the extra money Wow that's really atrocious on shipping by RSC. Sounds needs to be done here. Just for fun I checked how much it would cost to ship this set to Australia via USPS and it would be $99.30 for 6-10 day shipping and that is with me just buying the postage online, no discounts at all. So yeah I'm not sure what service Ringside is using for their international customers but whatever it is they are either using a company that costs way more than the USPS charges for the same size shipment or they are overcharging you guys a ton. |

They’re over charging, especially with anything that’s a RSC exclusive, The Darby Allin coffin set costs $33 to ship, when it’s basically the same size as a regular figure They would get way more Australian customers if they fixed their shipping costs as retailers don’t really stock new WWE releases anymore and AEW figures are expensive and harder to find |

I've always said I would exclusively shop at RSC if they were at least competitive on shipping. |

Even if we gave them the benefit of the doubt on rising prices, the fact that adding a second doubles the cost, 3rd triples it etc is beyond a joke. A small time seller on eBay can combine postage, there is no size company that can’t. |

That's cheap for a set to Australia. Who knows if RSC will fix the problem but hopefully it gets done. Btw my last post I accidentally wrote 'sounds' when it should have been *something*. |

Shipping to Australia was $19.95 USD which is around $30 AUD. How can Mattel get shipping prices alot cheaper than RSC? RSC needs to start addressing the shipping prices since you have alot of customers abroad. Big companies like Mattel do so much business with shipping companies that they are given huge discounts on shipping just because of the amount of volume they do. And while Ringside is a good size company, their volume of shipping is no where near what these big name companies are doing. So I'm guessing Ringside does have a corporate shipping discount with most US based companies, but they most likely don't do enough shipping for the shipping companies to give them much of a discount on international packages. This is one of the major reasons why Amazon started their own delivery network. They had such a huge discount with FedEx and UPS here in the states that the shipping companies were losing money on every Amazon shipment. So they chose not to renew their contracts once they expired. At the end of Amazon's contract with FedEx I think they were paying less than $0.10 per package for overnight delivery. Mattel have no actual presence in aus/nz as far as I’m aware, so everything is brought in via third party suppliers/distributors, therefore Mattel themselves don’t have the volume of packages to justify discounts with the shipping companies. I don’t know why they’re offering such low shipping prices here, unless they’re absorbing most of the shipping cost into the price of the product or something |

I'm in Sweden and they always get shipped to Belgium then forwarded onto me, but because they've technically been shipped from Belgium, I never have to pay a customs fee. |

Yeah I’m thinking of taking my ring to a collector shop and seeing what I can get. Keep the new gen area theme going. I tried but two rings on display didn’t look right in my space. Looked all bunched up and crowded. I wanna see what the crowd fund is before I sell the raw ring. If it’s stage or HIAC I’m keeping I’d love to have enough pieces for a whole AE arena set up

I got the New Gen…
I don’t think I have a reason for this as the New Gen should be superior unless I’m missing something.
