I assume the box will look much like the cardboard boxes that Stern ships pins in.

Quoted from foxtj24:I have been told mine would ship tomorrow everyday for almost a month now.
I have been told mine would ship 'this week' for the past 12 weeks!!!

Hey, thanks friend for trying to get the word out for me.
I just posted on the original thread that I got it fixed! There were 4 connectors to that little bitty board in the backbox that had come loose or were not connected at all. Got 'em all connected and voila! It fired up!!! Man, do I love this machine!
Thanks again, ole pal!

Quoted from labnip:Probably should tell the ol lady soon that "another" one is coming
Ha! I am in the same boat! I had to just give her a small sign I was thinking of this 2 years ago . . . let it ride for awhile . . . sneaked the money out of my own retirement account . . . talked about it again months later . . . then said it was the 'bargain of the year', it was only $2,000 . . . I set it up today out in my game room which she never ventures to . . . and I bet it will be a year before she even sees it!
Don't think I've posted this yet, but I was overwhelmed by how inexpensive the shipping charges were for my MMr. I ordered mine through Jersey Jack, and I was charged $175.00. That's the cheapest I've EVER had a pinball shipped! This was from Chicago to Bowling Green, KY, which is about 50 miles north of Nashville, TN. I know it is a short distance as compared to some of you, but still, that price blew my mind. Stern is in Chicago and I usually end up paying about $250.00 when a pin comes from there. If you are wondering . . . the shipping company was R&L Freight.

Quoted from Crash:Was it a box truck or semi?
A full semi.
Quoted from Crash:How accomodating was the driver?
Couldn't have been friendlier or nicer, and he did all the heavy lifting. I just stood there and watched!
Quoted from Crash:Did he help you get it in the house?
No. I thought he had done enough. My son came and helped me get it into the Man Cave.
Quoted from Crash:Did he know what it was?
No, but when I told him what it was he was filled with questions about it. We talked about pins for quite awhile. It didn't hurt that he was from my original hometown near Louisville, KY and we both talked about all the changes going on there in the past dozen years. It was a very pleasant experience.
Quoted from Crash:Am I asking too many questions?!
YES! Are you a troll? My limit for you is 20 per day. As in the game "20 Questions". Including your emails from today, you are now at 19 1/2. I think you should wait until tomorrow to get a fresh set of 20!!!!!!
Did I go to the bathroom today? YES! Twice!
Quoted from Pintucky:I bet it will be a year before she even sees it!
WRONG!!!!!!!!! One of the grandkids led her to it yesterday.
As she was attempting to bite my head off for "another one of those damned pinball machines!", I interjected, reminding her that I told her about it two years ago and how 'cheap' it was. She slowly calmed down, then walked away muttering something like, "how damned stupid are people over those damned pins . . . I could have bought new furniture for the living room . . . we need vacation money . . . what am I going to do with all those damned things if you die" . . . and on and on.
Nepal had an earthquake and so did my home! After-shocks have just about subsided here . . .
Peace . . . until I buy my next pin!!!!!!!!!!
