Wow that's beautiful. Congrats on the pickup! I've been wanting to get my very first statue for a while now but I keep postponing over and over. If I may, can I ask you a question about statues? I believe you're in the UK so I can relate a little more (I'm in Europe). When I see statues on US websites they're much cheaper for US buyers than when I look at EU stores for me as an EU buyer. Is it just 'normal' for Europeans to pay more for statues or am I looking at it wrong? An example would be the Prime 1 x Blitzway Catwoman statue from batman returns. Cheapest I can find on EU stores is 2000 euros (excluding shipping costs). That sounds more expensive than what US buyers can get it for in the US? Any tips would be greatly appreciated! Thanks Haunt of Collector :)
@hauntofthecollector Жыл бұрын
Hey there matey - the prices fluctuate greatly from sellers, distributors and direct from manufacturers. I’ll try to explain as best I can here. I buy my statues direct from Prime 1… but the shipping can alter greatly - for example, on this piece the shipping went up by $1K from original estimate!!! But this was an extreme example! You also need to factor in import fees - for whatever % your country charges on these? So, for this piece the price of the statue was £2170 + shipping of £1300 and I had to pay £380 import fee!! However, buying from P1 I get reward points which I can use on future purchases. But this method is usually the more expensive - but you’ll get your order quicker than any other route (usually?). Distributors price usually include shipping (& sometimes import fee?) - which is why the appear more expensive! Usually this is the cheaper route to go? Retailers and distributors in America do seem to be sometimes cheaper than Europe? I’ve ordered a 1:2 scale piece from one as he’s cheaper than any EU distributor? The thing is just shop around, ask for a total price etc It’s a bit of a learning curve really matey? I’d advise you to maybe see if you can find a fellow collector group local to you online and there get advice from collectors in your area or country? I know DerivStore are a good EU distributor - so maybe start there? There are also indecent ones to be found on Facebook groups - but always check credibility before using any of these as scammers are about! Hope this helps my mate? 👍🏻

I heard these cannot be sold into Australia, due to issues with the Batteries not to Australian standard or something similar, how stupid is that! Interaction with Prime 1 Customer Service was apparently unhelpful and two orders for Australian Customers were cancelled, surely an issue that could be easily sorted?

Hey matey. Yes, I believe it’s the LR type battery which is now not allowed in Australia? Having said that, I personally know 2 Australian collectors who have this piece, so I’m not sure how that worked for them? But there were certainly issues and restrictions/cancellations as a result of this.

@hauntofthecollector Жыл бұрын
There’s literally zero lean mate! And I do mean zero!!! His stance is natural and may make it appear there is a lean that would cause concern? But from having this in hand, I’m totally confident that there is no cause for concern at all… 👍🏻

@Haunt of the Collector I'm more concerned of the look of the lean, that bothers me more, but paint apps are better than the 1/4, that is one thing for sure, the incredible base and water, nonetheless, you got a grail
