Oh, coz mine starts with 'L'. What is the difference between First Class and Priority Mail, and what is express mail? Care to share more? TQTQ
*
First Class is the cheapest and there is a weight limit (4lbs). Slow and non trackable.
Priority is trackable (except small flat-rate box) and much more expensive. There are large/medium/small flat-rate boxes. Delivery is almost the same as First Class (as far as my experience goes).

Express is fast and more expensive (I remembered paying some USD60 for a 5 lbs parcel), can be tracked and arrive in less than 5 working days. I think all shipping labels starting with 'E' is the 'EMS' service just like our Poslaju International service, I have used the same from Japan, Korea and HK.

Actually first class is not all that slow . I had a Sith infiltrator shipped within 9 days. So i would say its an acceptable speed.
If you getting First Class then there is a risk of package missing and always best to get insurance if its expensive stuff. Sometimes if it goes missing
and you are paying via pay pal then you can get reimburse depending on your buyer.

Priority has tracking number hence you can always know the location of your package.
I had 20++ packages minifigures mostly shipped from US via USPS First Class and all manage to arrived safely. Still depends on luck.
*
Agreed, First Class is less consistent depends largely on which part of US it comes from. There are times it take just 7 working days and at times it takes like 14 working days or more.

I suggest use it for figures only, I have had up to 30 figures shipped this way in one bubble envelop. Make sure your mailbox have a big slot, the typical apartment pigeon-hole will have problem.

If the content is not that expensive and heavy (less than 4lbs), use First Class (small package) but sometimes POS Malaysia will ask you to pick up at the post office and will not deliver.

So far, I have 2 or 3 went missing using First Class from out of 60 or 70 I have received.

The flat-rate small Priority box does not come with tracking when it enters Malaysia.

Too bad Pick A Brick and Build A Minifigure is still at a very sad stage.. If not would have gotten some.. Hope they improve it over time..

That is a lot of keychains. I have not been to LLM, but recently got my cousin to get some white bricks,

322gram of bricks at RM350/KG = RM112.70

And this is what I got,

2x4 bricks 136
2x3 bricks 4

Price per piece of 2x4 brick = RM0.80. cry.gif

Yeah man, come to think of it. I could have got myself 10KG of cooking oil + 50 pack of 3-in-1 coffee + 10 kg of sugar + maybe a small Musang King durian.

And to think I have a dozen minifig where every one of them can exchange for the above.... rclxub.gif

I frequently buy from Bricklink. The trouble with BL is that not many stores have most if not all the parts you want, so you end up buying from multiple stores and paying for multiple shipments.
If anyone is looking for some parts and find it not economical to ship because of the small amount of parts, let me know. If the store I am buying from has the parts you need then I can help order for you.I can't promise I can get you the parts and it may take longer than you placing the order yourself. PM me and we can work out the details. FOR PARTS only.

otherwise just hope drivers left their receipts at the pump  tongue.gif

At this price, definitely not all drivers will buy, go to a busy station and I think you can get enough receipts within an hour to buy a complete set. I pump abot RM400 a month so not a problem.

There will be 6 cars, 1 set of 3 minifigures and 1 display case. Minifigures are for purchase with engine oil only. Not sure about the case, I heard it is gonna cost RM50.

I think it is worth it just for the pull-back (micro-propulsion) motor. Can be used in other vehicles or MOC. It is a 2x8 chassis with the motor built-in.

That is right and that was what the staff told me "convincingly", hahaha.
He informed that 1 unit purchase per receipt (fueling).
I wished too  laugh.gif
I came across the "real" car at the Shell station at the end of Federal Highway at Klang, opposite to Hokkien Hall / Centrol. If you would like to "feel" the car, please check there or other nearest Shell station, good luck ya. Else, get ready tonight after 12am if you can't wait till tomorrow, hahaha.
But, for me, I'm waiting for the 2nd wave instead  nod.gif

1 unit per receipt is stupid, what if my receipt is RM80 or more. my full tank is close to RM120. Don't tell me I need to pump 3 times if I want 3 units. Never like Shell and almost never pump Shell for the many years. IF NOT BECAUSE OF LEGO....
