Forbidden Planet shipping?

Postby Pooly_69 » Tue Mar 31, 2015 7:42 pm

I Already ordered Blackest Night Batman from them & paid. They sent me a shipping quote on the 23rd. How long Does it usually take for them to ship out your order? Or How long does it take for you to recieve it after you pay for the shipping? Thank You!

They shipped out my Headless Hershel on the 23rd and it still hasn't arrived. With that said tho their email I believe states that it can take up to 21 days to arrive. But if I had to guess I would say probably 2 weeks

I haven't bought from Forbidden Planet before, but I buy vinyl records from the UK from time to time. My best wait was 6-7 days, and my longest wait was about 17 days.

If you're in the UK you tend to get it a day or two after shipping, I ordered one and it arrived the day after dispatch.

Going to assume you're from the US here, but from my experience, their shipment time can be very varied. For my White Lantern Flash and Superman, it took a month to come, and that was to Scotland after payment and dispatch. Then my Blackest Night took just under a week to arrive. Hope I helped a little :)

Pooly, if you don't mind... can you tell a fellow island neighbor how much does FPlanet shipping cost is to PR? I've been wanting to buy from them, but I've been hesitant to order from them due to the lack of info. #-o

I was charged for Bane, but I'm the US. I noticed it says shipping will be calculated upon shipment, does this mean I will get charged again separate just for shipping?

If so I might be screwed cause I don't have that card anymore.

Any ideas???? :(

Yeah. Unfortunately the box was about the same size as the pop so I knew once I saw it, it would be damaged, I just didn't realize how damaged it would be.

Where did you convert that? £17.99=$26.39, so it looks like you haven't been charged for shipping yet.

I contacted them through email for the past week and they requested pictures. I asked for a replacement box and since they were sold out they offered a full refund if I were too "destroy" the item (break figure and rip box) or to offer 50% refund. I took the 50% refund. Just be nice about it and they should be helpful.

Yeah, just realized that.

Dont have the card anymore, but checked the account and shipping was only $3, and thankfully it was covered.
