Transformers questions by newbies, and not-so-newbies

how accurate is the online aus post costing procedure?

[blackie]

if you give the correct dimensions then i would assume 100%

I find it's usually a little bit more expensive than the online estimate. I think that it's because I only weigh the toy but when I go to the PO and pack it, I also pack in torn up newspaper to pad the box which adds to the weight. I guess the best way is to pack it at home and weigh it -- but I don't have spare postal boxes lying around. Unless you buy the box first, bring it home and pack it and weigh it... but I usually don't have that much time cos the post office closes so damn early, whenever I wanna post something I rush out of work like a madman and make it to the post office literally minutes before they close. Last time I literally ran in there as they were about to close the shutter, and I quickly packed the toy but buy time I took it to the counter they told me that they'd closed the register and wanted to go home. I looked at my watch and it was like 5:28 they're meant to close at 5:30. They told me that it was their closing time and they wanted to go home. I told them that I officially finish work at 3:10, yet every day I usually don't leave until 5:30, and that I had to leave my work especially early that day just to make it there at 5:28! I must've sounded crazy and desperate, cos they felt sorry for me and let me pay for the postage, then let me out the back door.

Sorry for the rant, but almost every time I try to go to the post office I either get there just after they've closed, or just before closing -- either way I always encounter grief. I hate how post offices close so damn early in this country...

I want to buy a 3rd Beast Wars Basic size transmetal 2 Predacon. I already have Spittor and Scarem and was wondering what others there were?

or a deluxe pred - iguanus, dinobot, scourge,

I've got two Basic Predacon TM 2 and 3 basic Fuzors. Wanted a third Predacon TM2 to even it out.

I've also got TM2 Cybershark So maybe a Predacon TM2 Ultra or mega who wasn't featured in the TV series is the way to go? Any ideas?

[Paulbot]

A Predacon TM2 Ultra or Mega who wasn't in the TV series? There isn't one.

Might I suggest Tripredacus Agent?

[LordCyrusOmega]

That could actually work.
