Question:
As long as I have been collecting transformers I have never ordered from Robot Kingdom.Do they charge for pre-orders now or when they ship? Are they located in the U.S. or over seas,I ask because of shipping charges.They seem to be a little less expensive than BBTS is but if they are over seas then shipping will average out the difference.I am loyal to BBTS because they are so reliable but their prices seem to just continually rise.If Robot Kingdom is reliable and shipping is fair then I will consider buying from them.Any help or advice here would be appreciated. :D

so if i understand thies right if soemthing at robotkingdom.com is 20.00 you would have to pay double price for a figure that is 20.00. pay $20.00 to robotkingdom.com and an extra $20.00 to get shipped to your house 40.00 altogeather?

good lokoing figures megatron looks almost better than his orginal version

1/2 correct.

pay now. Located in HK. Shipping is expensive-it will likely cost the same as ordering from BBTS.

Hong Kong is tax free so normally it costs less to buy stuff from there. Overseas shipping is another subject though.

I can confirm it is located in Hong Kong because I live in Portugal and bought stuff from them before. For me bbts is not worth it, too much expensive for people outside the US.

yeah...I realised the error in my comment after submitting but was to lazy to correct it. What i meant was: For people in the U.S. the price will be comparable to BBTS.

If you are outside of the U.S. then it may be cheaper to go with them than to pay the marked up prices@BBTS plus their shipping. However I can't verify that.

Even with their shipping they have been one of my favorite sources for figures over the last couple years.
