To clarify, I meant 75 boxed pairs--not 75 sets of the 5 boxed pairs.

I think odds are against even that, much less the larger number.

And good luck, Alberto...    ;  )

And Juan--I have no idea what that means...

Dave...

My source is asking where your source got the information--if he's/your willing to share it.

Thanks.

I hope it is not the Pentaceratops one, that is the one I am looking forward the most!!

The Expo just opened.  I don't believe any set is sold out.  I think one may not have been on the shelves on a particular day, awaiting replenishment.

I don't suppose the Pelicanimimus/Concavenator set is still on sale? Although I probably can't spare the money right now anyway... Stupid college loans.  :P

Is there any posibiblity to skip 1 or 2 shipping steps?
Like your agent shipping directly to customers for example.

The goal, as I'd thought I explained in a group e-mail (but maybe I thought better of sending it until I had more information) , is to have the buying agent ship directly to me, skipping shipping to my source.  That'll likely be the best for which we can hope, as I imagine the cost to have an agent ship directly to each buyer would be prohibitive.  Also, with 20+ separate transactions, it leaves way too much room for problems.

But, of course, we'll find out and do what makes the most sense, if we can get them at all.

Albertosaurus

I went to the museum couple of days ago and got my model sets. All of them are available now and I have to say that they are awesome!!! Bad thing is that they are smaller than the favorite soft models,but the sculpts are just superb. The boxes are a bit bulky though, I can imagine that that will affect the shipping price. Concavenator-Pelicanimimus set was available as well inside of the exhibition hall.

How much smaller, would you say? If the boxes are bulky, they must not be quite so small as Dinotales or something. From the available pictures it's quite difficult to be sure since there's no scale reference of any kind.

That's a lot bigger than I thought!  I assumed they were more similar to Dinotales. Now I'm really excited :)

Hey.

My source just informed me that she can get the Expo sets.

They are from 2000 to 2500 each before the various fees.  I have no further information but will update ASAP.

Thanks (and yay).
