Lousy pictures. Show me one or two pics with the pin lit up. Then turn on the house lights and turn on some sunshine.
Show the cab from every angle. Show play field with glass off.

Quoted from snaroff:I've shipped lots of games over the years and palletized games usually don't fare as well. Why? Because forklifts get near them. With legs on, humans transport the game in/out of the truck...not forklifts. Also, doing a good job palletizing a pin takes much more effort/skill.
Not trying to convince you of anything...just sharing my experience shipping over the years. Just shipped BM66 with legs on and arrived in 2 days to the new owner in perfect condition.
I 2nd this. With the legs on, the cab is 24" off the floor. If bad action happens, you more than likely get by with just bent leg. I bought a pin from New York. It shipped with legs on. And the two drivers manually moved it to the lift gate, carried into the house, and cinched the back box down. And then we worked on the receiving paper work.
Quoted from snaroff:Since palletizing is considerable work, it would need to be done before the shippers arrive to pick it up. This means they can't inspect the game for dings/damage, which means they won't take responsibility.
I had not thought about that part.
One pin I bought came in from a Canadian pin retailer in a 2nd hand Stern pin box. I paid for front porch service but when the package hit town the local shipper who was in the delivery chain refused to deliver unless I coughed up another $40.00 or go to yard and pick it up myself. I did the self pick up but you just made me realize how lucky I was on this shipping deal. I got lucky, IMO.
