I heard that about Small Joes another company that rips you off is Rage Toys out in Buena Park, CA. I bought two Marvel Legend Showdown figures for my son back in Dec. Spent $33. Never got the figures tried calling no responds so now I'm real picky about who I by from.

Watch the shipping on HTS. 1 figure can end up being close to $12. Better to buy in bulk and pay attention to their shipping deals. Sometimes, you just gotta buy when the going is good. :P

Frank, I may have to take you up on your kind offer!
As for Smalljoes, I have been buying from them for years, and have never had a problem.

It almost seems petty to me.. we won't ship to the other countries because sales in the past to those countries hasn't been as good.. which really leaves the collectors in those countries in the lurch..

The promotional code expires on May 28, 2007. I'd been wanting to make an order, and looks like waiting paid off.
