Do we have a network of pinsiders who will pickup a local game and wrap it for shipping pickup?
For a fee, of course. For those ads that don’t ship.

Just speaking for myself, I wouldn’t unless it was for two friends of mine. It’s too much risk for the fee. Say you do that, and the game gets damaged in shipping. Am I on the hook? I shipped it, so yes. And we all know, no matter how well packed, it’s a risk. I just don’t see the upside, but I see plenty of downside.

I thought about this. I suppose there’s no way to legally sign a waiver
From time to time, I see threads posted on the forums asking if there is another pinsider in a specific area who could do a pick-up. It seems to work out for the most part.
If you don't personally know someone in the area you're looking for, you could always try doing that. Most pinheads are happy to help.
