Talon Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 You can purchase the Vampyre Castle (9468) for $86.63 including shipping to the U.S. Amazon UK Vampyre Castle - 9468 for $86.63 shipped It is not a bad price, but not great. The main risk is damage to the box as I don't think you get free returns to Amazon.co.uk from the U.S. I've ordered from Amazon UK about 12 times and had slighlty damaged boxes twice, but not enough damage to make me return them, so I'm not sure how that would work out.

TheDarkness Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I looked at this and debated it a little, but the shipping it just seemed that little bit too high for what i want to pay for it. That being said I am keeping a very close eye on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowcrash Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 This works out to around $82 a set if you order 5 or more. Interestingly there's no limit, you can order 100 or more. Last time they marked it down it was 5 per customer. It was also $5 cheaper. Its still a really good deal, in fact you're practically running away with the set at this stage of the game. You're kind of SOL though if they come damaged since there's no really good option for replacing them. Amazon must be losing their shirt shipping them to the US, you'd think the ordering system would be sophisticated enough to assign inventory from a US warehouse. Still, if you haven't gotten any and you want to invest time's running out on this set... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rys099 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I recently order this item from Amazon.co.uk for $82, and both the shipping box and item box came completely damaged...I asked for a replacement, hoping that the 2nd time would be the charm...The shipping box came in great shape, but the item box was worse than the 1st one...I just shipped it back today and was charged $60, so I contacted them and they told me that I would get the full refund for the shipment back..I have my doubts that you'll get a pristine box, but it's up to you if you want to roll the dice!

As it came out to about $82 a piece, and thats what the sale price is now. The box looks slightly different than the US version with less writing on the box... Do you think this will be a problem when it comes to reselling it later on ? Perhaps it's not quite the same as the US version? Can you confirm if the barcodes are the same on the US version UK one??

stephen_rockefeller Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 The UK version with less writing on the box is the exact same as the US version.......the value will not be affected. All UK sets do not have the details of the set on the left hand side of the box like the US versions do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest AnnexBrett Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I'm about to receive mine but for some reason they used UPS as shipper which automatically ripping me off with a big brokage fee. $40 on the top of the deal makes this a no saving deal. It arrived in 24 hrs though but I haven't asked for fast shipping spec with these conditions... And I haven't seen the sets condition yet...! I think I have to have a session with their CS chat again... :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AnnexBrett Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 I got mine. Shipped by UPS (I havent requested it) as I mentioned. Paid extra fees on it but they are well packed and near mint sets! Only one tiny corner ding on one of them. But cost extra $37. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
