Back in the good old/bad old days there was a guy we called OshKosh Ron.
Ron was a long distance trucker and pinhead. He offered to pick up and
ship a pin anywhere in the country for $100. No need to pallatize and he
treated machines he shipped like they were his, carefully wrapping and strapping
them in. The downside was it could take up to a year but usually a lot
faster than that.
Great guy and I'm sure he was able to find many pins for himself this
way. The last time I used him was 25 or so years ago. We need to find
someone like him. Or get a long haul trucker hooked on pins.
