interesting...never used ali express before but i got the impression it was like a KO-central market or something
It's a Chinese business that looks to be like ebay (without the auctions), in that it lets people and businesses list their own items through the site (and as such, could lead to a lot of KOs being listed).
The prices are all over the place for Transformers, and since these are items being sold by Hasbro China, it will mean international postage from China on top of it.
Probably a good last resort if you can't find something on ebay, Amazon or RK.
I've seen this mentioned previously, but it's good to remind folks (including myself) that Hasbro China is doing this.
While too late for me what would shipping jetfire from there be like on the cheapest tracked service?
I just want something cheaper than RK
Shipping is free, if you look on the item pages it tells you that. even for big ticket items like jetfire. it's epacket so it's slow shipping of course
How slow are we talking...months?Quote:

Rodimus Cron for sub $50 is not bad though
Ordered Jetfire and a Marvel Legends two-pack in the early hours of the 20th), order partial shipped on the 20th and then the other half shipped on the 23rd. Jetfire arrived yesterday(the 30th), very bare minimum packing, satchel with the large air tube packing around the box, box wasn't the best shape but it's in the recycling bin already so who cares
OK.....I wasn't aware Hasbro had an official site on Aliexpress. As I am dubious of most stuff on Aliexpress this is a little surprising and I'm kinda curious what other official site are on there???
I have not bought from here (the thread title store), but have bought loads stuff / toys from other stores on Ali Express.
Every item I have bought had tracking, it updates real nice and fast on the China end, where stuff takes on average 2 weeks to OZ, then sits at a depo on the east coast for an average of 2-3 weeks (no joke, NOT an exaggeration) and then finally arrives.
Basically ships in reasonable time from China, and on the oz end stuff just SITS as its basic postage, and on the OZ end they don't really update the tracking until about the day they deliver it so it looks like this:

Expect loads of updates as it is in and leaves China, then no updates in Australia until it arrives (thanks for that australia post!).
Out of 100 plus orders, I've had perhaps two items go missing ever in five years. Considerably LESS than buying stuff on ebay, or the amount of stuff that gets lost posting from my own state to someone else in my own state.
I find Ali Express if anything more reliable than ebay sellers in general.
The two times ever that things were lost, the seller refunded me in full, even though it was confirmed in Australia, and actually lost by Australia Post (go team!) and never found.
Jetifre / Siege $143 shipped - 3 day sale (today is second day I think)

Quite a few reductions on other TF stuff on the store too.

Ordered Jetfire and Springer. The Springer Box was absolutely flattened and destroyed. Jetfire box was squashed in to the point I couldn't pull the cardboard sleeve he is mounted to out of the box without opening both ends, trying to reshape things and then ripping the box.
Woooooow. That's atrocious. Were the figures okay??Quote:

Yikes
