Reaper Kickstarter... Number 2

[beefcake]

Yes but I'm sure they factor shipping into the final price of their pledges, so international backers will pay this expected rise in price of the miniatures plus their own shipping as well.

[Timbor]

I did not realize that KS required free domestic shipping.  Interesting.  I had looked at that calculator update before, and the predictions were similar to what I would have guessed.

I might just end up dropping my pledge and buying the bits I need once the 10-20k+ backers who end up backing the project decide they want to unload all of their unwanted bones.

With 22,000 posts in The Reaper Bones 2 Kickstarter comments, it is easy to lose a useful one.

It looks like the Vampire box from the previous KS ($100 IIRC) is now $324.99 on the Reaper site:

The latest possible additions to the expansion set (still 200,000$ away) has many figures that I'm interested in. It may become worth adding it to my dollar pledge. I'm very wary of shipping costs, though, so I'll wait until Reaper gives an exact weight for it so I can calculate how much shipping would be. Until then, I'm in just for the infernal dragon, Narthax. And perhaps a gelatinous cube if they show a production model before the KS ends (unlikely).

I'm very wary of shipping costs, though, so I'll wait until Reaper gives an exact weight for it so I can calculate how much shipping would be.

Shipping is hugely dependant on carrier and service level chosen. I tried to ask Reaper about this but they didn't really answer the question. Apparently shipping will be in the pledge manager, but when does that go online and do you really have any choices there?

My Vampire package with some extras weighed 3.5kg. I could right now go to the local post office and mail it back to them for 46 euros or 86 euros depending on service level chosen. If I was really busy with someone else's money to burn, I could call the UPS guy to pick it up and send next day air for probably 500 euros...

[Ajsalium]

They are going to use USPS. They have already said that. And service level will be the same one used in their previous KS.

The pledge manager has come out
https://ks.reapermini.com
You have to sign up for it but it gives you postage. I think I'll only get a few things as postage is considerably less for that.

Ok, that relieves the uncertainty. Looks like postage for the basic box is running at roughly $50 now. Adding the expansion doesn't really change it.

I don't get what the big fuss is about... That's not a huge difference compared to what I paid for international shipping the last time around...

[beefcake]

Well it is double but then again it's not as much as I thought it would be. And not ridiculous considering the size of the box.

[maxxon]

And not ridiculous considering the size of the box.

The plastic is thankfully light. If it was metal or even resin we'd be paying through the nose for shipping...

Reaper added 25mm bases overnight.

The reason i'm not in this time is that they are not going to declare the value of the parcel as $100, it will be the actual value, and the more the KS goes up the higher the tax becomes, I think this means at the moment something like $75 (roughly £30) in tax and £8 royal mail fee, but it's only going to get worse.

There are more items i'm interested in this time around than last time but I will just have to buy them all at full whack from Miniature heroes instead.

[Timbor]

Or buy/trade them from the likely 15k+ other people who will end up buying the full package and won't need most of the figures 

I really want to get that Goroloth... shame you have to buy the whole other package too.
