Good Price?

Chimungmung.com has TakaraTomy MP-17 Prowl with Coins for 65$ with taxes and mail is 85$, is it a good price or no? And what are so special about the coins?


Thanks

Nothing. Just Takara's way of adding to the collectibility factor.

Re: Good Price?

I have ordered from Tony in the past, when my two primary sources are sold out.

He will under declare if you ask him to, will pick out good boxes if you make a fair sized purchase or become a regular.

$85 US is not a bad deal, but not great either.

Re: Good Price?

I only buy from Tony when I have a few items otherwise shipping is not worth it. And I concur with python, Tony will adjust the declared value before shipping.

Pricing is in US $, but Tony is pretty good to deal with and offers better combined shipping rates if you're purchasing multiple items. Much better than other HK sellers like Robot Kingdom, for example.

I've probably made around a dozen purchases through him over the last 2 years and as far duties/fees go, I've only ever been hit with them once in all the times that I ordered from him, but that was likely it was a higher value purchase ($500+) and was sent via EMS. Otherwise my orders with him have been anywhere between $30 to $280 USD and I've never been hit with duties for these other orders.

Re: Good Price?

Never had an issue with tony with over 10 transactions. Many over $200 value. Always under values and never had customs. Customs forms are marked as "plastic toy". Shipping is high but it's packed well and registered mail. 5 days to my door no joke. Combined shipping is the ideal way to go. Just email him directly, not through his website form. Unfortunately, I've decided to stop using him due to the shitty US dollar conversion right now otherwise he was my go-to guy for non-MP stuff. He always got his stock in first.

Re: Good Price?

I mostly buy from chimungmung, always with EMS shipping, but usually loose since I throw boxes away anyway. For my current order (MP Star Saber, Playstation Optimus, TFCC Lio Convoy, TW Shinebug and Infinity Gokin Voltron - almost all die-cast, remember), EMS shipping was $70. Exchange rate sucks bad though. Never paid customs in dozens and dozens of orders.
