Leader Magnus must be in, or at least the first batch, as mine has shipped from PC (due for delivery next week).

"Sorry, this item is temporarily out of stock".

Damn, hoping the next lot are due in soon.

Road Rage's price looks to be the same as full RRP, which is fine... but just wondering if you're planning on offering any pre-order discount as many other online places do.

I'm sure that you're already aware of the difference between Japanese and Australian online retailers and that the RRP set by Takara for Japan obviously is not going to translate through to every country that imports the product.

overall our catalog would be the cheapest Ive seen in australia for sometime,

especially with postage and free shipping over $150.

when the item is released our prices tend to slightly increase as suppliers may change to meet demand, so most po people benefit from locked in lowest pricing , Some items will be RRP but again, if postage is factored in and are overall catalog is analysed I think our prices are very good.

Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to say that it's by any means a bad price. It's actually about $8 cheaper than what you would pay for this toy in Japan at full RRP (7560JPY/AU$83), and of course, the cheaper cost of domestic shipping would be cheaper than international shipping from Japan.

I was just wondering if they were willing to "price match" cheaper sources (can't blame me for trying ), but this is still a good price.

P.S.: I've been recommending Premium Collectables to friends.

You're not comparing like for like. It is like comparing melons with watermelons. Melons are good, but watermelons ..... mmmmmmm.

My understanding is that PC price match other domestic online sites taking into account shipping, blah, blah blah, with few exceptions. That's more of a fair comparison.

Of course, if you find a cheaper seller & happy with their service, by all means go with them.

We are quite fortunate to have several domestic sellers pop up in recent times to give fans greater choice. Time will tell how they perform. Sometimes I feel we expect more from our domestic online retailers than the larger overseas established online sites.

(I'm not having a dig at anyone, be it consumers or sellers).

Can now announce we will offer the quakewave variants .

Pre orders will start on the 19th.

As with our first attempt with apolloyon , this will be a trial so the numbers will be limited and not as sparse as say our takara and hasbro offerings.

Price as usual should tempt hopefully.

thank-you

In my experience I think you can get the MP Cars (small boxes, low weight) items cheaper at Japanese online sites if they are on about 30% price discount which the discount can cover the postage cost. Also if AUD has better FOREX at that time. But all in all if items are bulky or for peace of mind (hate looking for the cheapest to save a few $, i will just go to PC

I thought that the discussion and sales of unlicensed toys was restricted to the Unauthorised section, as per forum rule #18.
