They wanted $15 shipping to New York State for the missile vehicle. Which isn't bad for something that size being shipped internationally, and they do accept PayPal. I'm probably gonna have to pass on it until after Christmas, however.

Well in my case was the Su27 jet and the black humvee they wanted $52 for shipping. Very different from $15. For $15 I would order the jet. I got the black humvee in Turkey for less then €30. Only wish they had more stuff but only the SWAT related toys and not all of them.

The postage rate is going to be different for each country. I can get something from China way cheaper than from Canada most of the time.

Well its weird and doesn't make much sense. There are sellers shipping from HK around ebay and aliexpress and either they ship for free or they ship for much lower prices. Off course items are smaller but still... and I noticed before that price difference from US to Portugal is not that big. So I really don't understand this quote. Unless $50 is the minimum shipping service but Zap Rowsdower told here they were quoted for $15 for the missile truck.

If we really want to see about all of this, Grippen, just place a quote request for the same basket of goods I posted earlier and wait to see what their shipping quote is. That will give us an "apples to apples" comparison to see if it's based on country/region, or simply the characteristics of the package itself, or some combination of the two. You can always decline or ignore their quote if it's some insane price.

By the way...THANK YOU FOR POINTING THIS OUT! I am going to finalize an order once I get my 15% discount quote and see what happens. Hopefully the feds don't take me to the cleaners at customs time...
It's pretty sad when that's my biggest concern with this process.

Is $200 "very high" or are we talking in the thousands?

THANK YOU for pointing out that we can set up personal accounts with M&C Toys. I set up an account with them. It was pretty easy to do. They have missile truck and base that I'd like. I'm going to try to get them. I know shipping will be pricy but it is shipping directly from China.
I think it is so cool that M&C toys is willing to work with us directly. They seemed resistant to deal with us in the past. The prices are a bit higher than what BIG LOTS offers but BIG LOTS has not got in half the stuff M&C toys has listed on their site.(SU-27, J-10, both bases, missile truck...) I am also friends with M&C toys on facebook. They also set up a World Peacekeepers fan site on facebook. Check it out
