Hi all.
I reacently amde my first (2/5) and second (2/10) purchases at thingfling. I am curious what the average ship time is on their items, and weather they pack their packages well. I ordered two of th ecode 3 collectibles, and i would like to know if i should worry about them arriving in pieces.
Thanks

you should only worry if you order more than one of any given product, as there seems to be a massive tendency to just ship one, regardless of how many you pay for. I have seen this crop up many times on the forums, and had it just happened to me. It seems from previous incidents that thing fling has been good about resolving them though. I sent my email to fling, so hopefully they will take care of me.

Well, the average trend lately, for most people, is about two to three weeks till you receive the item (i don't know about the item leaving their facility); while some receive their item in a week. Depending on which method TF ships it to you (DHL Ground or USPS), you will get a tracking number via email from DHL on the estimated arrival date. No one has reported getting a tracking number or any indication when it is shipped via USPS.

Packaging: The last package I got (1.5 weeks ago and filled with smaller items), was packed w/ shredded paper. None of my items were delicate anyway, so this was not a problem for me. One person reported getting air pillows in their box protecting their item. But since your item is highly delicate, I'm sure TF will package it really well to prevent any damage. If you're only shipped one of the collectibles or if it's broken during shipping, just email them and they'll take care of you.

and the King himself DID say "Do not worry !!!!", so with that said, I don't think you should. Wink

First purchase from ThingFling was (2) mystery boxes with the ipod speakers. Received and VERY happy with the results! It would take too long to list the stuff but I'll definitely be back!
