    Has anyone been following the propworx auctions of Stargate props on ebay?

    I have since they began, haven't bought anything though. Mostly because of the ridiculous shipping to international countries. Theres been some great opportunities though.


    For any who doesn't know what im talking about check out propworx here http://stargateartifacts.com/

    Any idea what their international shipping costs are? It just says "Contact seller".

    I haven't contacted them to get a quote yet but i read their small print and they say in their experience after handling fee ($25), currier shipping and insurance their experience is that shipping is a minimum $85 ti international locations.

    Considering their small items are just a piece of production art of a small prop (replicator cell) i just think its a too expensive considering i'd only have about 100 euro to spend on the prop itself.

    Shipping averages between 100-180 USD depending on what you get. I got some pieces that weighed of leather and some which were a few foot long.

    They understand how internation shipping can be pricey (they really package everything very well) and will always let you wait to pay for items together from seperate auctionst to combine on the shipping. Think I have gotten about 10 or more items from them in total so far. If you are looking for nice lil pieces, www.stargateprops.com , on ebay just do a search for stargate props and they have framed replicator blocks for 30USD +shipping which is cheap. Great bunch to deal with aswell.

    Thats great value for replicator blocks, i've seen sets of five replicator blocks sell for over a hundred dollars a couple of times on the propworx.
