US Amazon shipping some regular TFs toys overseas

[griffin]

Amazon is now my new best friend.

The three boxes were shipped on the 12th.
One arrived on the 17th!
The other two arrived on the 18th.

Five day shipping from Kentucky, America... for less than what it would cost to post just one of the boxes within Australia.
Actually, it took just three business days, which is how long it can take to post stuff from Brisbane to Perth.

I don't know if this is the norm for Amazon shipping, but even if it takes 2 or 3 times as long, I still wouldn't be complaining at these prices.
It would still take longer and cost more driving around the stores to find all these.

There's no way Hasbro Australia would want this to continue if they ever found out about it.


EDIT - I just opened up the 3 boxes... if you are a Mint Packaging collector, this is not the option for you. The two bigger boxes had a small token effort of packing material in them, which ended up with a lot of bent backing cards. Since the outer shipping boxes are strong and protect the contents well, the toys are fine (for me). The backing cards can be flattened out, so I'm happy with what I got, for what I paid.
