Hey Everybody,
Ringside is now offering UPS SurePost as a cheaper shipping option on our site. It is basically cheaper than USPS Priority shipping.
It is a bit slower, usually a day or two more than priority or ups ground. SurePost is basically UPS taking the packages and processing them through their sorting system throughout the country. Then at the end of the destination they hand the package over to the local Post Office who then delivers the package to customer.
PO boxes are ok. Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rio, Other US Territories & Military orders are NOT ok with UPS SurePost.
Thanks to all you WFigs members for supporting us!
-Trevor Ringside

Always good. Shipping is outrageous these days and not just with your website. It's everywhere. Anything to save a few bucks I am all for.

If I've already ordered something can I change my shipping method before it ships?

Too bad my local post office sucks. They've misplaced some items where i end up getting it 7-10 days later from what the tracking info says. I'll stick with ups ground. Never had a problem with them.

If pre-ordering basic series 40, with the wfigs discount and this new shipping option, it comes to $82.99. That's $13.83 per figure delivered right to you door. That only comes out to about $1.85 per figure more to do it this way than to buy it retail. Usually you will get them a few weeks sooner and no hunting involved. Being that I live 70 miles away from the nearest city that has more than 1 place to hunt, I might be using this option more often now.

UPS Surepost is as reliable as UPS Mail Innovations. They have horrid Logistics and Supply Chain Methods unlike regular UPS has, and the tracking is useless

Looks to be a couple of dollars cheaper. Glad to see this. Shipping cost is the reason I don't order from RSC.

I think I'd rather spend the extra 75 cents- a buck to have it here a day or two earlier. But def a great thing that people have various options now! I will be looking to use that first class method in the very near future as well!

I've noticed that you also added first class mail for international customers... How long does it usually take and do you provide a tracking number for that?
