I'm expecting to get hit by custom charges


Every time I've bought from Oscar, I've asked him to list it as a 'gift' and a value of only $20 dollars.

Never had a customs charge from his stuff yet...


Have had many, horrible charges from other sellers, though, which always feels like a kick in the balls personally.


You may not have requested it, but Oscar may well have stated a very low value on each of your packages to avoid you getting the charge. He's good like that.


Re: Oscar's happy nature, I read somewhere that he is officially 'The World's Most Enthusiastic Man'[tm]. Always happy to help and seemingly joyously excited by the next order. I think he's great.

I'm all excited! UPS website confirms my 30 cases from Oscar have been delivered, and are waiting for me when i get home tonight! Hurrah!

Now which figs do I put in them? Decisions decisions....

Well, if you fold the cardbacks you should be able to get several in each one.

Or you could ditch the figures entirely and get about 20 cards per case. :wink:

What condition did Oscar's cases arrive in SteveD?

Any damage?

The last lot of 10 I bought had slight damage to 5 of the them [my worst hit rate ever!].

Little parts snapped or cracked at the lower sides where the bottom shelf slides in.

I've another 10 on order and am hoping for more caring UPS employees this time.

Just going through them now Paul - and I've opened ten so far and the success rate is 100%. They are very good quality. Packed in huge boxes, with loads of packing, that is currently spilling it's way out all over the spare room and into the hall!

30 out of 30 are perfect!

Can't recommend Oscars strongly enough. The cases look brilliant, the build time and shipping was fantastic, and he's such a nice guy it's unreal!

Already plotting my next order.

Excellent to hear that they all made the journey safely. 30 without loss is remarkable!

I've 13 on their way to me at the mo. I hope its 'lucky 13'!
