I've shipped a few now and had a few shipped in. The new ones are pretty easy to package up...its the old ones where the heads weren't connected, that can cause creative issues on shipping. Biggest issue I've seen from shipping them is the idiots that put the legs 'inside' the cabinet for shipping...lots of repair work to do then... ----- Original Message ----- From: Jeff To: Richard Cc: utvgg@mailman.xmission.com Sent: Monday, May 11, 2009 9:14 PM Subject: Re: [UtVgG] Anybody selling any pinball machines?

About that Gorgar... If you're willing to drive to Denver, there's one for $850. He says he can deliver, maybe he'll drive one or two hours toward Utah and it could cut some time off your trip if you were really interested. http://denver.craigslist.org/clt/1154040047.html On Mon, May 11, 2009 at 9:39 PM, Jeff Peters <robotron4@gmail.com> wrote:
