I sold my AC/DC BIBLE to a guy in Ontario.
During shipping it was in a semi rollover.
The game is totalled.
Let's have a moment of silence for a great game lost

I'd still buy it!
Hopefully the buyer had sufficient insurance and everything is settled fairly - I'm sure he is disappointed though.
Did the backglass shatter? Playfield damaged? If not, a new cab from Stern and it would be good as new.
That's actually how mine look every time I ship with STI.
2 pins damaged, one flipped over on it's side, and property damage. Will never use them again.
Pity.
Wish I could take a crack at salvaging it.

the way it's wrapped up like that makes me wonder if they just gathered up as many pieces as they could find and jammed them together. I'd be curious to see it unwrapped.
Remember to check the PINFAX or PINPROOF reports to make sure your slightly used machine does not have a 'Rebuilt Status"
Ok here's a few answers for you.
Shipped through Day & Ross,uninsured.
They do not insure used pinball machines.
Rolled in a ditch during a snowstorm in January.
Buyer was offered 2.00 bucks a pound.
He has a lawyer involved now,more than just simple neglect on the shippers part.
The head was severed from the body,wiring harnesses trashed,don't know what happened to the rest of the head.
Shooter lane had a small chip in the black

Who arranged shipping - you or the buyer? I'm assuming since the buyer was offered the compensation, the buyer arranged shipping.
That's gonna be a tough one for the buyer - there's a reason there is insurance, and this is it. You can't complain that something bad happened during shipment of anything, and then expect full compensation when there was no insurance. This is why you only ship something like this with a company that has insurance. Whether it rolled over in a ditch, or got skewered by a forklift, or it just got completely lost, it all comes down to the fine print of the payout value in the event of a total loss.
I set it up,he paid to have it shipped.
He had the choice of finding someone to ship insured,couldn't find anyone to do it.
He might be covered for it on his homeowners insurance.
I haven't heard yet if he is.
Total value of the load was over a million,insurance company was holding everything until now.
Never woulda happened if shipped on legs :p.
In all seriousness for US folks. www.collectinsure.com
Covers in transit.
Now I know why they call this game BIBLE, for I'm sure he is praying he gets refunded in full despite not having insurance on the shipment.
What a dam shame.....

Well...that pretty much says it all...
It's trashed

Quoted from turbo20lbs:I was THIS close to buying it. God damn.
could have been saved!

I'm betting you can get a better deal on it now... shame!
What number is it?
#181
You should have bought it turbo20lbs,it probably would still be around then.
Not sure what will happen to it yet,we are still trying to get the game and see the final condition.
Lots of parts were packed inside it as well,like the train topper,and original band set up.
Maybe the LCD mod survived,not likely though.
Invisaglass is gone in the pictures to,I'm guessing in a million pieces.
