    I am needing a new sheet of standard glass for my GL. So I am looking for the best online price out there. Cant really wait for a show to get a reduced price. Best I am seeing with the "inflated" shipping charge applied is $83 delivered. Does anyone know where to get the best online deal?

    Thanks

    Google map search a local glass shop near you. Find a mom & pop shop. I have one around the corner from me. He will cut and temper pinball glass for me for $50 cash. It only cost him about $10 so he’s still happy. Plus you’re putting money back into your community

    Are you sure the $50 quoted is LEAD-FREE tempered? My local glass shop quoted me $55 for tempered, $185 for lead-free tempered! The lead-free makes the glass CLEAR instead of a slight GREEN tint.

    One thrifty recycling thought: If anyone in your area has recently swapped standard glass for HD glass, then they have that sheet of standard sitting in their garage and would probably like to get rid of it before they break it! You could ask around you local area...

    I have already listed a want-add on CL.

    My local glass shop charges $32-$35 a sheet for it. Takes about a week since it has to be cut to size and then tempered.

    If you must order online...
    PBL has a great deal on widebody glass, no standard body though.

    I would email Pinball Life as they've carried standard glass in the past, and are probably just temporarily out.
