Quoted from investingdad:I got a freight estimate from Michelle, I'm assuming her folks will pack it correctly. Her estimate included insurance. Seller said he'd lay down the backbox on a blanket but all packing would be by Michelle's folks.
Do not trust packing by these folks. To my understanding, Michelle coordinates the shippers, but the machine will be handled by at least three parties: 1. local pickup to terminal A, terminal A to terminal B, terminal B to destination. I've shipped games, and those that have been properly prepped (usually by me or another seller) arrive in the best of shape. Still, shit can happen (machine dropped from lift) and the insurance is a must.
