Quoted from Drano:Wow.. Got my tracking a couple of days ago and this showed up today.... from China!
They packed the hell out of it too! I was removing foam for about 30min.
Super nice! Thanks for making these
That looks awesome!
Madison, WI
Quoted from Whysnow:mine shows as in Chicago!!!
Me too! After seeing Drano's pic... I can't wait!
Quoted from Whysnow:potentially arriving today!!!!!
Mine was just delivered and came through Madison so you definitely should see yours.
It looks great! Packaged very well.
Sure does.
Could you pull the light box out of the wall and pull the cord and wire it into the box and lose the wire running down the wall. You would only have to drill through one stud and that's only if the box is mounted on that side of the stud.
Quoted from Travish:Sure does.

I'm sure the wire could be hidden. In my case I have it running to a remote power strip with the rest of the games so everything turns on at the same time.
Quoted from colorado_cabrio:Got mine today; but it's got a break
Ahhhhhhwwwww mmaaaaannnn 
that sucks!
Mine showed up today! I have no idea how they packed all that foam in and around the neon. Looks fantastic on top of my pitch and bat. Feel sorry for Colorado Cabrio. Hopefully getting a replacement is as easy as getting the original was.
Thanks to Pinballlew for setting all this up!

No worries we will get this taken care of, he expects a small percentage of breakage. Just the nature of the beast.
Ogga_Ogga_Ogga_Chucka.... The pretty mail Lady brought my piece of art. Me and Gorgar shall drink beer and enjoy the glow.

Some people are asking where's my sign, just know that these were sent off in different batches. The first batch are the ones that have arrived, the next batch was sent 5 days later. There are 5 batches total. From what I can gather tracking numbers go live and they arrive within three or four days.
Quoted from Boomer71:Got mine today. Mine is broken also.
Quoted from tacshose:Got mine today, same thing, broken. Darn
These will be taken care of and replacement glass will be sent out. Sorry for the inconvenience and I hope no other signs arrive broken. I am quite surprised as what I have seen they are packed with tons of foam. I am also quite bummed that 3 have arrived broken.
Replacing the glass instructions attached here I have been assured that it is not hard and just takes a small amount of time:
Quoted from tacshose:I don't see a UL on the transformer, is that a big deal? Just curious.
Nope
Would someone mind posting their tracking history? Mine looks like this which seems weird to me.

That is how it should look..I PM'd you another tracking number processed, removed the last part that includes the address for privacy sake.
Does anybody have a clip of the Simpson's episode this is from? I could only find the still image linked in the first post.

I was unable to watch the episode yet but want to also. Season 3 EP 19 Dog of Death.
7. Beer is the Answer Neon Sign: Speaking of Moe, he seems to have the answer to everything, and according to this neon sign perched behind his bar, the answer is beer. Ah yes, the cause of, and solution to, all of life’s problems. Seen in season 3, Moe responds to a “lottery fever” T.V. commercial by clicking on this sign after proclaiming the tottery to be the “exploiter of the poor and ignorant.” Touché Moe, touché

Quoted from luch:how you gonna get that foam to stay there when mounted on the wall ? lol
I know you're joking but that foam is not going ANYWHERE unless you specifically want it to! It's packed in there pretty tight.

Everything is packed so tightly, I could probably just pull it out of the box, hang it on the wall and all the foam would stay in place.
I got a neon probably from the same guy. After you turn it on in the box, with the foam for about 2-3 minutes (maybe to show your family), pull it out of the Styrofoam box and try to put all the foam back in. Some of it pops back out from static charges.

Yes, my kids were laughing and playing with it after I did that. Care to share a picture of your sign?

My 26 year old daughter and "much older" wife did the same thing.
The colors don't turn out too well with my camera phone of mine ... there are 5 or 6 colors, 24x20 (the black frame size behind it). I got it off of Amazon, but it did ship from China in the same orange Styrofoam packaging that I saw in a couple of the first pics.
Thank you for sharing that's a very cool neon! Do you mind saying what it cost? Never mind saw it on Amazon.
Quoted from Bigbossfan:Mine showed up today. Glad it made it unscathed. Mike, thanks so much for organizing this!!
Your welcome, I am glad too that it made it safe and sound! Hmm I checked the tracking and it had said status not available this morning...and says the same now. Can you see a tracking number on the package? Curious if it was just sent to me wrong.
