I would definitely preorder from forbidden just in case since they don't charge you a dime before it's released. They didn't even quote me for shipping when my order was placed.

If anyone wants me to check shipping costs for them I'm happy to forward if it saves anyone money?

Forbidden Planet do pack these books really really well

Check shipping as in how much it will cost for you to send us?

Yes if it helps - I have no idea what FP's charges are like for International shipping but happy to do a comparison to see if it saves you money?

[Dr_Jengo]

Sure, that will be great. Do let me know how much shipping is to Singapore

That's a really generous offer! Just out of interest, would you be able to check how much it would cost to ship one to Australia (Postcode: 7008) if you took most of the excess packaging off it?

Hi there

Just on the case with this now so will happily check

The books actually come very well packed in a folded card outer that protects the book. They weigh 1720g in this box. It could be bubble wrapped as it is and then wrapped in brown paper which would keep it under 2kg or I also have slim packing boxes that the bubble wrapped boxed book could be shipped in as an additional protective layer prob taking it just over 2kg - depends how important the brown book box is to you as the corners may get bumped on a long journey with the first packaging but the book should be ok inside

Let me know your preference and I'll price up

Thanks so much for that

Yeah I've seen the card outer before and really like that method, my Halo: The Art of Building Worlds limited edition was shipped from the UK in one too and it did a great job of protecting the book!! I think I'll go with that first option you suggested, as it seems like a good mix of protection and minimizing cost

The quote I got from Forbidden Planet was 38 GBP per book, which seems sort a high considering my Halo book (same dimensions, format and weight) only cost 10 GBP to ship!

Here you go - I'll put it here rather than pm as others may wish to get an idea
