Title: Help getting some stuff? US (or Canada??) to UK [modified slightly]
Post by: PitterPatter on October 22, 2013, 11:31:50 PM
Hi  ^.^

I'm looking for some help getting some TRU stuff... I'll detail here so you know what you're getting into before offering  :biggrin:

Having taken advice on TRU int. shipping the game has changed.

Turns out Shadowbolt is not able to be shipped internationally  >_<, and nor is the pre-order for chinese new year pinkie

so any help there is still appreciated ^.^


I'd like some stuff, ideally in one go, some deboxed to save packing, one kept in box.

Favourites set 2013 (Queen Chrysalis etc) - deboxed
Sparkley RD and Twi FS set - deboxed
Shadowbolt - Keep boxed.

I'm also looking for someone who doesn't want Chinese New Year Pinkie to pre-order for me as it's one per person :(

I can pay you straight away, then for postage once worked out, though we can sort that out when you've lovingly volunteered.

Also, if there are any special offers (like til the end of the day if you order for collection a certain amount of stuff you get a voucher) you can take advantage of that for yourself. Or if there is anything I can help get you from the UK just let me know!


Soooo, if anyone can help me with me rather excessive request  :blush: I would be most grateful!!! PM me :)

THanks for reading ^_^

Thank you ^_^

I think I might have scared people for asking for so much at once :P but it just makes it easier for me, and don't ask you don't get :D

US TRU ships to the UK for a very reasonable rate (they quoted me around $7 for the Favourites Collection), and their courier lets you pay import tax in advance so there is no handling fee and no hold up at customs :) I've personally not done this yet but I've heard their courier is reliable and packs the orders well. This would definitely be cheaper than having a person ship the items to you, even deboxed.

I'm planning on ordering a few things from them myself soon :D

last time I checked it was tens of dollars... like over 50 type thing. And that wasn't that long ago.

I guess I'll go check again though.

Oh my gosh, really? D: I hope they haven't suddenly jacked up the price >.<

I think it's more that it's gone the other way :P I looked for the last favourites set and it was going to cost well loads. But it's no where near as bad this time. Same address and everything.

Buuuuut Shadowbolt RD can't be shipped to the UK annoyingly!

Aww no D: At least Shadowbolt RD is pretty small so hopefully getting a member to forward her to you shouldn't be too expensive?
