Saw an ad on CL in Texas for a machine that was posted back on 12/22. Seemed like a lost cause, but emailed him anyhow on 1/21 - almost a month after it was first posted.
The guy who answered was willing to ship the game. I figured a CL listing, shipped from TX from a private party, was pretty risky, but I really wanted the machine. So, after negotiating a price, I said "what the hell". Set up shipping...
This seller's communication with me was excellent, and here's what I ended up with:
Helluva packing job. Palleted & lots of wrap, signage, etc. But it gets better:
Aluminum flashing and ratchet straps. Nice protection.
Down to the Owens Corning insulation level. Hmmm - looks like a Taito mini. And...are those white joystick balls?
They sure are!
