    I got my notification for the arrival of Ratchet yesterday in my PW, but when I decided to add a couple of Q TF's on the order before having it shipped, it took a whole day to process my payment - very unusal for them.

    Still awesome postage times for them usually though, hope it happens again this order

    I'm now into my 10th business day waiting for MP Shockwave from HLJ. SAL though.

    I thought that was pretty standard for SAL. Used it once, took about a month without tracking. Never again.

    Yes. I think I've learnt my lesson.

    I always use EMS from HLJ. Usually its not that much more than SAL, and it arrives much quicker and has tracking.

    I think for parcels with higher weight it is more cheaper to ship via EMS. But don't quote me on that.

    Also HLJ has relatively cheaper shipping cost compared to say AE. Does HLJ have a discount partnership with Japan postal service?

    Amazon could learn a thing or two from HLJ when it comes to shipping several odd-shaped items in a big box, by plastic wrapping the lot before putting it in a box...

    Amazon uses a parcel box? Reminds me of this post by Lint. Just slap on a label sticker & out she goes.

    Shame on you Amazon.




    I actually didn't cry, but was still not very impressed

    I find BBTS the best at tetrising boxes Had a huge box with a lot of odd-shapes inside (mix of Hasbro, third party stuff, and an anime fig for a buddy), and after taking everything out to inspect the contents I couldn't figure out how to get it back inside the box without the lid puffing upwards

    Love it when online companies place this much time and attention to packaging.
