Weekend bump. I'm motivated, so please feel free to make offers.

I will also consider Stern PROs such as ACDC, Mustang, Star Trek and Metallica as trades. Cash added as needed.

Ive seen a good many in the past 6 month's sell for near 3500 and yours is even nicer than those . Its still probably the best title under 4k and better than many a title pins. glws

JM has sold so there is no longer an option to combine shipping with Congo.

In addition to modern Sterns, I am open to trades for A/B Bally/Williams games.

In addition, I am interested in the following Classic Solid State games.

Bally Black Belt
Bally Centaur
Bally Fathom
Williams Banzai Run
Williams Cosmic Gunfight

As always, cash +/- as appropriate.

Do you mean the gold tag? It looks like something an operator placed on the game.

Some shipping companies like Forward Air offer very reasonable shipping quotes if you are willing to accept insurance at $1/pound and you are able to pallet or crate the game (as a seller) and are willing to pick it up at a terminal (if you are the buyer).

Shipping a pinball machine is not as scary as some believe. I have shipped over 100 games, both as a buyer and seller, since I started collecting. In my experience, properly prepping the game for shipping helps lessen the risk of damage. It does not eliminate the risk, but it does offer a layer of protection.

True. I was very iffy when I got a game delivered but it was no big deal...other than watching the tracking and having to wait

freightquote.com works but will have limited terminals they use at any given time.

FedEx does LTL fright for a good price in most cases. Wrap and strap on end to a smaller foot print pallet as that is what matters for their metric on cost.

Should be ~$250 in most cases.
