And according to the toyfair news I saw, looks like this is it for a while. So no Road Rage :( and I just passed up a good sale price so I could support local retailers. Sigh.
We should be getting MP Road Rage. Perhaps it's been delayed by a few months, similar to what's happened with LG10 Arcee (which was initially speculated to be released around last Sept/Oct but has only hit stores this month).Quote:

I've already got tracks but waiting on road rag. it wouldn't be so bad if they just kept the price right. That's why they still have so much old stuff. Generally I'll laybuy and hold it to wait for a sale XD
Road rage IS about only $65.50 or less (delivered), I am not sure why anyone want to pay more.Quote:

Lowest price is not the only consideration for some people. ;)

If you are paying in jpy PAYPAL its normally cheaper than paying the Aust currency which they offered at $65.50
So they want $253 for MP22?:eek:Quote:

Note I am talking about road rage or maybe tracks. If you want other MPs, there are other places to buy. It sounds like many are thinking there is only one place to buy everything which is not true.
But by all means go and shoot more ridiculous mp prices for the older models.
I am just pointing out to a member where to buy road rage cheaply. That is all.
Ems is good for certain things and fast delivery.Quote:

Economy sal is what I use for mp cars as I never lost a parcel from my parcel locker yet.
For bigger items I even use ship surface as I have no rush for toys but each one is different and you pick what suits you best.
I mean the prices are weird. For example, HLJ has Road Rage for only about AU$4 more than NY, but SAL shipping is only ~AU$9, while EMS is ~AU$16!Quote:

Hlj has a deal with the Japan post hence prices are cheaper for shipping.Quote:

Hope that helps.
Amiami also has shipping prices similarly to ny
End of the day you weigh up what's best. Some people swear that bbts is cheaper with pile of loot. I don't feel that is so as usd is just way to high.
Pc is cheap for their first runs. After that, you need to weigh up. As hot rod was more expensive at pc than buying from ny. But you get a coin which I don't really care for it.
Ah, so that explains it! Given NY's propensity to increase their prices on figures steadily, I thought they were doing the same with shipping.Quote:

This is not the NY feedback thread but you can see I've left plenty of good feedback about them there. I've found in the past that even though the shipping is higher at NY, the total cost has been lower than HLJ whenever I've compared them on pre orders. NY is usually not the place to go for back catalog releases, although I did pick up MP-10 a few months ago for only 12,000¥ before shipping.
That's very generous of you. I'll hold you to that. :)Quote:
