Disney Spidey 4 Pack damage

[ODBJBG]

Update, bought 2 sets from the original seller. hopefully, will get one that arrives in mint un-opened state. Hope the Tariff war wont affect all the stuff going thru the border. It would be a real drag.

I recently had a package come through to me from the Netherlands. You know, one of those countries we've always had tension with lol. Good news is, I didn't get charged any tariffs. They also didn't open my package as best I could tell... But they seemed to sit on it (not literally) for ages. Much slower than usual international shipping. Don't know if it was just happenstance or if they're being forced to examine stuff a bit more closely causing major delays.

Unfortunately anything going through customs always has some risk involved, especially if you're a MOC collector.


Completely unrelated, but I just didn't care for the hoops that had to be jumped through to get these figures so I passed. I'm glad those were desperate for them were able to do all the Disney shopper nonsense but it's not for me. Maybe something will come along that makes me want to do that. Kudos on Mego for finding a way and Disney for also finding a way, but given Mego's previous dealings with Hasbro and all that it's a shame something easier for the consumer couldn't have been worked out.

My first replacement set just came in.

The set was not opened but the shipping box was banged up galore ! Seller sent me Pictures of this items and the packing job before it left. The shipping box went thrue War to get here so the box set has a dent in it. F"ck

I guess its wanting a miracle to get a Parcel from California to arrive in Montreal undamaged. Still waiting and praying for my second set.

When you opened the shipping box, to take out the 4 pack, was the 4 pack wrapped tightly in plastic bubble wrap?

plastic bubble wrap, wrapped tightly and scotched taped around the item, should protect the contents inside, especially if it has to go thru customs.

we all know the post office and customs, toss and throw packages from bin to bin unless the sender puts the handle with care stickers on it, but even that sometimes doesn’t matter. If the 4 pack was wrapped in bubble wrap, it most likely wouldn’t have had a dent on the side. Also was it insured?

Some bubble wrap around it, should have protected the set. The shipping box was tossed around. Very hard these days getting stuff undamaged from the US . Dont know if its on the US side or the Canadian side but it sucks since its stuff I want undamaged.

I receive stuff from China in half the time and in perfect condition. Makes you wonder.

Well, the other set arrived !

The shipping box was beat to hell, the worst of the 3 and its a miracle, the set is minty inside !!! Yay...

1 out of 3 made it undamaged...

I did get authorisation to return the first set and managed to receive both new set to replace it before the deadline. After pondering about it and seeing how much the individual figures sell for. Decided to keep all 3 sets and the ripped damaged one I will open to have them loose.

What the hell... Not really gonna get another chance to get these in Canada.

Here they are. IMG_7569.jpg IMG_7571.jpg IMG_7573.jpg IMG_7575.jpg IMG_7578.jpg
