    Congrats on the sale! If DP actually gets this thing back off the ground like they claim, whoever is your buyer is about to have $5,000 worth of buyers remorse in an instant! I still cant believe there are people willing to risk that sort of loss on something like this but I guess "its only money"!

    Wow.

    Nice pack job.

    If anyone else out there wants my TBL for 15k, hit me up. Very serious.

    Dang man risky to pack like that if STI can't inspect the game for damage at pick up they can deny a damage claim as pre existing damage. Last note if you ask Michelle to send corner boards she will make sure they send them with the driver.
    Below is the CC I just sold, game inspected for damage buy shipper and then triple blanketed, corner boards and shrink wrapped.

    Sorry, very good point. Here is all I did before they arrived:

    Congrats on the sale! The new owner is getting something special for sure.
    I shipped my IMVE out yesterday via NAVL and was quite impressed with how well the game was inspected, wrapped and handled.

    You'll be kicking yourself when the original machines are selling for $20K.

    And they actually sat around and waited for all the rest? I'm surprised they didn't kick it a few times for good measure.

    If I was to wrap a game in front of them, they'd literally be standing around for 3 hours. I guess we'll see if game number 3 I've shipped this way makes it or not, but I'm pretty confident.

    Wow you got $15k??? Sorry, but that is a terrible packing job, especially for a $15k pin. I have shipped many games with legs on and I always created a cardboard cocoon to ensure the decals are protected.

    No worries. It looks pretty crappy but every single corner is covered in a major way but welcome to constructive criticism. Definitely looks bad but that machine shouldn't get a nick on it.

    What are you replacing it with?

    Carnac the Magnificent says it will become a Houdini.
