Quoted from TaTa:I don't get the whole wish you were closer routine. If you want this bad enough you can place a bid for shipment on U-Ship which I've done several times with no issues. I shipped to FLorida back & forth and then Michigan. It cost between $250-$350 for this distance. They'll go pick it up and package it in any fashion that you wish. The best part about using this type of courier is that they work for you. When they arrive to pick up the pin, you have them take pictures and a short video of the game playing to validate the accuracy of the sellers disclosure. For what it cost in tolls, gas, food and most of all time, using a personal courier is the way to go if the distance is more than an 1/2 day trip. I hope this helps out those who are teetering on buying this pin and of course the seller. PM with any courier question that you may have. Now, lets get this sold already!
Yeah my experience with U-Ship kicked ass. I sold a pin to a guy who used them. Not only was it $100~ less than STI, but it was *much* faster. The great thing with them too is the machine will usually stay in the same vehicle for the whole trip - no in and out of warehouses and trucks, no fork lifts.
