What to expect from sideshow ...

Want to ask forumers from this thread: Yesterday I just made an order direct from the Sideshow website, this is the first time for me. The next day i received an email from their Customer Service Rep saying that Sideshow's policy do not process transaction from a credit card issued in M'sia due to many cases of credit card fraud. He wants me to pay via international money order in US fund, what is that? what are the extra cost incurred? Has anybody encounter such problem before?

Hope u guys can shed some light, thanks!

It's normal feedback.

Sideshow doesn't honor malaysia's credit cards, due to fraud cases.

So you need to go to any bank and buy a US$ dollar bank draft /cheque. There are some small bank charges involved aside from the usual currency exchange rate. You can check each bank website for more details.

It's a chore to go to bank for such, each time for the deposit and then for the remainder of the cost when item is in stock. But that's the game of the hobby. All that for the exclusive items.

sideshow got supply their products to other sellers in america ma... dont order from sideshow lor, buy from the other sellers la. wat for so troublesome?

Thanks for swift replies!

Actually i ordered an in-stock item, something that is not garner any interest from most ppl, it's Dr Zaius (from Planet of the Apes) PF Ex Edition. During the holidays sales, got 30% discount, off from USD 285 to USD 200, plus about USD 53 shipping fee. So, it's about RM800 in total.

I want to email them saying I dont mind waiting for them to clear all the payment via my credit card, then ship to me. rather than remitting via bank draft.

Ya sideshow don't accept our credit cards. In a way, it's good. Otherwise, I'll be buying nonstop.

with some of the current bargains on sideshow, it's quite difficult to resist. It's just the visits to the bank that spoils the buying process

My suggestion buy from other seller than provide easier purchase.. might cost a lil more but for the hassle and bank charge its the same story...

i enquired banks today about payment to account abroad. In my case, they recommended Telegraphic Transfer (TT), it's direct and fast (though not as fast as Western Union). It will take about 3 working days to transfer. The charges is RM27. I have spoken to Sideshow via live chat, they said my order will be valid until 3rd of Jan 2011.

Has anyone has any suggestion? or has anyone bought directly from Sideshow?

Don't think TT is an option. Only cheques.

If they dont accept TT, the last option is bank draft, it will cost me RM85 for FedEx courier, what a hassle!

No need to courier cheques, just send normal mail. Unless you are desperate for fast turnaround time.

Wah I dont know so troublesome one to order direct sideshow. They dont accept paypal also?

Thanks to malaysia's tarnished reputation
