xSlacker Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Heya, Reaper peeps.I read a bit about the Warlord gameand I thought I'm gonna try get into it.So my question is: How long would it take for me to get my stuff that I buy from the ReaperMini site?I live in sweden, so is there any estimate time for delivery?Just asking as I would love to buy me some Warriors to create 2 starting opposing warbands, as I allready have some painted Reaper miniatures here at home.Thank you. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reaperbryan Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 We ship within 2 business days, via US Mail. Delivery to Sweden should take 4-6 weeks. During busy seasons, like November/December, it can be much longer, and during slower times it can take less time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xSlacker Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 Oh... Dang... :sAnd I suppose you don't have have some form of Express delivery option?Like 1 week or so? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goblyn Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 you can choose USPS Priority Mail International in the shipping options Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xSlacker Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 Okay, but how long would that take for it reaching sweden?I looked up the shipping rates on United States Postal Service and took a small box as an example to ship from USA to Sweden.It said around 6-10 days. Does that sound right?Sorry for these strange questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caffiene Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Delivery to Sweden should take 4-6 weeks. Yikes. Is that a worst case estimate, or what youve actually seen in practice? I dont feel so bad about being all the way over in Australia now... I just got my first Reaper order, only 15 days after ordering (including 2 days processing/packing time at Reaper HQ). Might even have been quicker, except yesterday (Monday) was a public holiday here so no mail delivery for the last 3 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xSlacker Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 I could try using the Priority Mail International option... Might be faster, just have to make the order on a monday... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokingwreckage Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 My Australian order also took just over a fortnight. Is Australian shipping notably faster or did I just get lucky? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caffiene Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 My Australian order also took just over a fortnight. Is Australian shipping notably faster or did I just get lucky? Two weeks is about average when I order stuff from overseas. Occasionally something takes 3 or 4 weeks, and occasionally something only takes a week, but if Sweden is 3-4 weeks average then in my experience we're just notably faster for some reason.

ObsidianCrane Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Yeah it's usually about 2 weeks to Australia (plus a few days if you are remote). I find it hard to believe it takes 4-6 weeks to get to Sweden, but that could be Reaper's experience. xSlacker I would suggest that International Priority is only worth it if you are sure that UPS will deliver the parcel to your door and not hand over to a local mail company. Tracking numbers etc tend to stop being of use once the parcel leaves the US, as do priority stamps - you didn't pay your post service for priority so you tend not to get it.

vejlin Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Actual shipping to denmark from the US usually takes a couple of weeks. If you are unlucky the package can be misplaced along the way or delayed in customs. That is pretty rare but can add weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vejlin Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 My worst waiting time was 2 months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redambrosia Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) I've had things (minis even) delivered to me from Europe and the longest it took was 3 weeks. Not that I do it often, i have to reeeeally like it to order it from Europe Edit: Oh, and welcome to the forums!

vejlin Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 By the way. I am situated in copenhagen, so if you are nearby and want to check out warlord, I can show you the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xSlacker Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) I have ordered stuff from the US before.One thing I bought was a Gadget Holster, and I got it by the end of the following week. (Probably because I ordered it on a monday.)I saw that Reaper can offer UPS, but I'm not paying over 1000 SEK for a box of miniatures, lol.And I looked up USPS Priority International on their website, and it says that I would have it in 5-10 buisness days. (I took a small box as an example that would be the same size as a miniatures box.)@Vejlin - I'd love to, but I live in småland (the county which is just north of skåne) and I'm not very keen on traveling that far just to game... And I'm not good when it comes to understanding danish... :/Though my sister is situated in Copenhagen also, heh.Also, one more question: How do I know if a model is 'In Stock'?
