Dear all,
I´m more than happy to say that Tommy from Nitro Amusements is another trusted source for my anti-reflective glass in North America from now on.
Together with Joey from Pinball Decals Inc. (PDI) the community will have an additional access for the product.
Especially shows will be covered better.
The next stop from Tommy is the Nortwest Pinball and Arcade Show June 9-11, Tacoma Convention Center.
Please get in touch with him if you require further information.
Roman
Quoted from HighVoltage:How much????
Please bring one for me to NWPAS. Wish we got Euro pricing, but this beats the other stuff which is just as pricey...

Quoted from HighVoltage:Any quantity discounts? All of us in Seattle are going to group together and make one order, ha...
Is shipping possible?
If not, do you have a list of shows that you are planning on attending (or normally attend each year)?
Quoted from FlipperFreak:This price point is less than all other non-reflective glass available in North America.
Sold! I'll take one. Can you reserve one at the show for me to pick up?

Please note: this is a special "Show Price". We will post additional shows Nitro be attending with Roman Glass.

Quoted from FlipperFreak:Please note: this is a special "Show Price". Shipping is not available. This is the only US show we attend with Roman Glass.
Well, so much for all that hype that was being pushed saying there would be an alternative to buying from PDI soon, unless there's something else in the works for "not canada".

Any ideas or suggestions ?
Many vendors carry other glass and don´t want to carry two products of a kind.
I understand your frustration but you need two parties to get started.
If someone is going to the show and is willing to pick me up one for my BK and ship to me then send me a PM. I know it is a long shot but hey, what the heck.

My best idea is to find the people that want to make some money and set up bulk orders for shows close to them. Obviously, if Marco or PBL wanted to deal with carrying the stuff they'd already have been talking to you, so I don't think we can necessarily depend on our vendors to make this one happen. I have no idea what your minimum is, what the cost to the seller is, if it's an entire pallet, or if that somehow violates your agreements with PDI. Without that information it's almost pointless for me to speculate who might be able to do anything.
There's no point into me going into detail with the reasons that I will not ever buy anything from PDI, as it's got nothing to do with their service or a screwed up order or anything like that. I don't need to convince anyone else if they want to order from them or not..I frankly don't care. It's my personal choice...but as a result I can't get your glass, which kinda blows. I had a sheet of JJP's stuff that I had on a prior game but it got sold with the game...I really liked it, but again... my preference is to support the original product, not the knock-off, so if I can find some way to do that.....I would. If not...then I just won't have premium glass on any of my games.

Try non-Stern affiliated pinball vendors such as Comet and Titan. Perhaps one of them would be interested.
Quoted from FlipperFreak:$225 USD - Cash & Carry
insane price for the best glass around.

Marco is too close to Atlanta where PDI is located and they sell Stern´s HD Glass already. I assume that Marco is in the same kind of a political situation with Stern like Terry. Some may call it a dilemma.
Thank you for your thoughts anyway.
Here´s a deal I´d like to offer especially to you Frax so you don`t need to fight against your intrapersonal conflicts or your personal conviction.
I´m still looking for one sheet of Stern´s HD Glass which is not available here in Germany.
You buy one sheet of Stern´s HD Glass and ship it to me (I´ll pay the shipping charges to Germany via USPS).
In return I´ll ship one of my sheets back to you (I pay the shipping charges back to the US).
What say you ?
Quoted from DCFAN:Try non-Stern affiliated pinball vendors such as Comet and Titan. Perhaps one of them would be interested.
Thank you for your advice
Quoted from wdpvideo:That's not America. FYI: that's Canada
The Great White Hype!
He will be selling it in Seattle (Tacoma actually), so... that's close enough for me. Otherwise, let's go to another technicality...
A little geography lesson from wikipedia for the USA-centrists...
The Americas (also collectively called America) encompass the totality of the continents of North America and South America. Together they make up most of the land in Earth's western hemisphere and comprise the New World.

To be fair it did say North America...which last I checked includes Canada.

Ok far North America. Need to find a vendor that does the Chicago and TPF shows. I know he's had the opportunities to do so, but passed it up.

Might have been a contractual thing with PDI...we might not ever know, as I doubt Joey would want the terms of their agreements laid bare lol..
If I had the capital and a some storage space, I'd deal with TPF myself, but I have neither of those things. I also saw what happened when one of our local guys bought a pallet of REGULAR pinball glass and all the hoops he had to jump through to get people to pick it up and to get the rest sold, so I can understand why not many places want to take it on. I just don't want to buy anything from PDI given a choice....enough that I'm willing to wait until there's another choice available. =Þ
Will you have any widebody sheets at the show? (IJ)
Quoted from bitternerd:Will you have any widebody sheets at the show? (IJ)
Quoted from hawknole:Bottom line, there are still limited options for Roman's glass
Quoted from FlipperFreak:Currently sold out of widebody. Will be available on the next shipment.
How about Safe Cracker size? Any chance of getting one of those sometime?
Quoted from FlipperFreak:$225 USD - Cash & Carry
WOW. Incredible price on the best playfield glass period. I paid close to $300 a sheet for mine and it was worth it at that price. I love the stuff and have been boring Pinside about it for years.
Congratulations to Nitro Amusements.
Quoted from pingod:I got the only one from the last shipment
You mean a shipment to Nitro recently? Lucky you!
Not a problem though, I like to spread out the goodies, I'll get mine later if not sooner... 
Quoted from FlipperFreak:We're looking into shipping throughout North America. As well as discount cash & carry pricing at a few more pinball shows.
Great, please PM me if so. Thanks.

Yes,they brought in a shipment for Yegpin here this month.
Forklift could barely get the glass off the truck
We still have lots left here for sale,regular only I think.
