    I just ordered some figures from hasbrotoyshop for the first time, and would like to know from some on here who are experienced with them how long it usually takes for them to get their figures.

    I ordered it yesterday afternoon, and as far as I can tell it hasn't even been shipped yet. I haven't gotten a shipping notice or anything, just an order confirmation.

    So, from the order date with standard/basic shipping, how long does it usually take to arrive?

    Yeah HTS has always taken about a week once shipped with basic shipping for me. May differ for you.

    My last order was shipped out on Tuesday and arrived early this morning (Thursday) at the post office and will be delivered tomorrow (Friday).

    But it was only one figures and it was basic shipping. So I am sure maybe how many things you order and what not makes a difference.

    Ebay:
    i got an email on the 9th from HTS, and my tracking info said it would arrive by the 16th; but it arrived on the 14th.
    not bad that it was shipped on a Friday and got to me by Wednesday.

    i have another package on its way to me that was sent the 14th (got the email a few hours after i got my first package, go figure) and the tracking info on that one says i should get it Monday.
    there may be a good chance i will see it Saturday.

    3-5 days is about average for their packages to reach me.

    one last thing- you posted your question at almost 2 am Friday morning. so you ordered that stuff Thursday afternoon?
    man, you are a bit impatient. even with BBTS or other places, it takes about a day to process your order.

    so relax. You should get an email by this afternoon with details.

    Cool. Cuz I ordered (or pre-ordered rather) HA Jazz from them, which will obviously ship much much later. but I also ordered 3 ROTF Deluxes (2 that I don't have and 1 for parts for Leader Megatron *snickers with excitement*) that were on sale for $8.99 so that I could have enough to do the double your action giveaway thing.

    I ordered mine this last weekend and checked the tracking today and I am in South Ft. Worth, TX and it says as of 2am they are in Dallas so either tomorrow or Saturday I would guess, which beats the estimate by a couple days.

    Not bad for my first experience.

    HTS used to be slow as hell, but I have to admit that the last few orders I've made through them took about a week to get to me at worst.

    I remember it used to take close to 10 days or more, so they have improved.
