Man I had the painted gid kong in my cart but could not remember my damn KT password and by the time I went through it it was gone (along with the cavemen) So close to getting them and I had just woke up and saw it... Stupid password log in!

nope wasn't me -

when i first looked at the figures on K-T, i thought he had just split a couple sets and marked them all up... but his prices per figure are good actually... they cost about what they should before shipping

I seriously would have been me, but my G/F has been using my computer (we just moved) while she tries and find her power cord to the airport (no luck yet). Problem is we frequent alot of the same sites and her passwords were clashing with mine. Last night I had to reset the keychain access and accidentally deleted all keychains, thus losing the KT password (usually when I log in it's already there). To be fair though it was me that lost it because instead of just signing in as a new user, I kept getting more infuriated as I kept trying to remember my password. Doh! As fate would have it I magically remembered it - but only after I got the message that the stock had changed.

this was a cool opportunity...I mixed and matched a handful of the pink painted and unpainted...

and after multiple looks I am convinced that these have one of the best header cards ever!

Anybody have a general idea of the EMS charge from KT to east coast USA? I haven't ordered from them previously...they must give you a confirmation with shipping charge before you finalize payment through Paypal correct?

a box that's like bigger than a shoebox/smaller than a paper box will cost you in the 20s. i know shipping rates went up though since i last ordered, so i cant say for sure

Sometimes they will put stuff in an heavy padded envelope if it is small. That will run you around $15 or less. EMS handling is pretty reliable, so things do not get crushinated like in the regular mail.

Thanks for ALL the input on shipping folks, one of the ones I was hoping for is sold out now and I don't know if I got a confirmation email waiting at home. We'll see I guess. So many good things coming out, I figure I'll land something I want

Hey folks - I placed an order on KT for a few dinos and received a confirmation email that read:

Thank you for using the Kaiju-taro shopping system.
Person in charge does you mail within 36 hours.
The total amount of money including the carriage paid with Papal has been described in mail.
Please wait for mail from the person in charge.

More experienced KT shoppers, is this the standard procedure; wait for an additional email from someone and then pay? I'm somewhat concerned that the items I want will be gone. Or does the above email from them basically reserve the item until I make the payment? If anybody has any input let me know. Thanks, Matt

Well I may have missed out do to my log in fiasco (they sold out as I woke up and tried to log in) BUT I'll say it again as I've said before- Always mark items on KT. Missed that GID Painted Kong but I did get a nice "marking commodity has arrived" message this morning for the naked cavemen. :shock: Score!
