Summer 2014 Miniature Exchange

[Sirithiliel]

Yea, when shipping stuff I know will fit in the free priority flat rate box, I use them all the time. They're sturdy, i like the flat rate price, and can fit most of the stuff I mail

What's sad is it took 3 days for the mini I sent to make it to NZ but my electric bill takes 6 to get across town

[Flamehawke]

That seems to be the way it works frequently

I guess Uber is including a lot more in the package than I did.  I just used random small boxes that were lying around and it was about $3.50 with tracking.

I just use the flat rate small box, normally $5.80 if you go to the post office and I believe it's $5.25 if you print it at home yourself. Comes with tracking and $50 insurance, gets to destination within 3 business days. I'm sure there are cheaper ways of sending if you want no insurance and don't mind it taking a bit longer.

Was at the post office to drop off my package when I was informed I have a package from New Zealand. Whee. Have to wait until midnight to see what's inside though. Doh

Yay! Make sure to post pictures!

[Flamehawke]

Lots of stuff happening today I take it if you have to wait until midnight

 

Edit:

 

I admit I am eager for my package to arrive at its destination. I am so nervous about it as this was my first try at basing a painted model. I intend to do more minis and more basing, but my partner is receiving my first attempt at making decent bases...

 

Oh and Teskeria said she wants to join the next exchange as she thoroughly enjoyed this one.

Hey! Get the other thread up before the mob grows restless!

[Dontfear]

I'm pretty excited for the next one. It will give me a nice break from my fire giantess.

[Kangaroorex]

Yes please. I really enjoy the inspiration to paint and model that these give

[Flamehawke]

That is why Tesk and I want to do another. Right now it propels our personal painting as well."

[Sirithiliel]

I'd like to do another too ^^ I just love seeing someone happy to receive something I painted!

P.S. To my partner. I did not send you Wyrmgear. I just used his box to add an extra level of protection to the minis during shipping. They are inside the box to heavily wrapped up.

You temptress, you. They arrived today with only one minor issue (alchemist came off the base). Bot minis will likely see play in our Eberron campaign soon (hopefully as good-guy NPCs and not bad-guys).

 

I will try and upload a picture later.

 

As for me, I missed the post office this evening due to my carpool having car issues on the way home. Her car overheated. I will do my best to ship out tomorrow.
