American Hypsters- do me a favour

it really depends on what they weigh. What figures would you be talking about?

 

I can tell you that the standart weight of one figure from Canada to the UK is right around $25.

From the USA I dunno.

 

That's what sucks about not being American. There figs are likt $7.88 or something. Here they go for $14 retail. And that sucks cause right now tha Canadian Dollar is higher than it's been oin a while. It's at 90 cents right now. So why do I pay nearly double for a fig?

 

Actually, if the US RRP is $7, chances are the UK RRP will be about £7. So example, ML's usually retail for bout £7.99 (give or take a few pench). Usually, whatever you pay in dollars, we end up paying for in pounds. So we're getting shafted good & proper over here when it comes to things like figures!

 

7 pounds? That's like 14 bucks right?

 

Yep.

Right now, £7 = $13US, $14CA.

 

yep 14 Bucks

 

Forbidden Plant take the piss most of the time with their prices. Before ML's hit the mass market over here (up to series 8) they were charging anything from £10 - £25 for an f'in figure! But now, thankfully, that at least 3 major retailers here now stock them, they've been forced to drop their prices alot. Well, apart from variants. They still charge the Earth for them! OH, & the new Wal-Mart exclusive wave. They've got had them in now (or will be soon) & are selling each figure for £15. Here's hoping Asda (Wal-Marts, UK sister company) pick the wave up. That'll learn 'em!

 

Same can be said for the likes of NECA's Cult Classics. Only ever gonna find thous kinda figures at specialist shops, unfortunatly.

 

I think if you go to a post office and ask...they'll be able to tell ya....That's how I found out about 60 cent stamps to Canada...

 

Yeah, but he's in England.

 

Oh.....
