BigBadToyStore is good, but a few bucks more expensive for most TFs.

My experience with BetaToys was very good (Bought the Yamato 1/15 scale Garland from Mega Zone 23). Great customer service, speedy replies, etc.

Robot Kingdom is on my black list. It took them over a week and three (mabey 4?) e-amils before they gave me a routing number. terible service, but as you know, awesome selection.

And there's always eBay...

EDIT: Your moto and sig kick all kinds of ass.

BBTS is great, but a little expensive as previously stated.
Xybertoys looks quite good. Prices are in British Pounds but shipping is free. I was going to order my next Revoltechs from them until I found out about...
Hobby Link Japan who have an awesome range, great prices and reasonable shipping. All prices are in Japanese Yen, but estimated conversions are provided for many other currencies.

you do know theat Xyber toys lets you decide what currency you can view the prices in, there's a drop down menu in the top right hand coner of their site that lets you choose between stiring, Euros, and Dollars

i do have only one complaint about Xybertoys, their order status, gets a bit confused, and doesn't always update properly, their site doesn't think they've shipped my MP starscream yet, but i've had him on my shelf for about year now...

Ah yes, I see. But that still doesn't include Australian Dollars...

I have had great luck and am happy with BigBadToyStore (B.B. T.S.) and I also recommend Digital-Toys.com. Hope this helps! Happy Hunting! :grin:

BigBadToyStore.com is defintely my online vendor of choice. They have slightly higher prices then other places, but they are a good company that you can trust 100%. If something goes wrong with your order, or if something comes broken they jump right on it. Joel is great and the rest of his team is also great, I have rarely had to wait more then a day to a response to a question, and if you get the e-mail in early they usually get it back same day. So like I said they are a little bit more expensive, but it's worth the customer loyalty nd good buisness.

anyway we could get a sticky of various online toystores that ppl use so this can stop coming up(and yes, i have posed this question before. I am not knockin the person asking. I think it would be beneficial for everybody.)

BBTS and JRSToyworld.com

I started a thread very similar to this and we really do need a sticky for this as far as what online stores are reliable/good places to get Transformers. Seeing as how ebay is a source for a lot of the forum members purchases, I think listing the name of ebay sellers/stores is also a good idea. I think we should also list good sources for acquiring parts as well.

Anyways, throwing my two cents in, I have become a big fan of TFSource.com and can't say enough good things about them. They have awesome packaging and great customer service. Curt answers emails same day if at all possible and does an excellent job all around. He also has excellent articles and links and sells G1 parts as well.

You really can't go wrong with BBTS. Usually if they don't have a listing for it, you probably can't get it.
