PREORDER: MsPac, Galaga and Pac cocktail screened glasses

Preorder prices are as follows:
Galaga $185
MsPac $185
Pacman $185
Prices will go up after the preorder, which ends on Dec 31st.

Shipping is $50 in the 48 states. All other areas by quote. Due to insurance restrictions I can only ship one glass in each box. If you order (2) or more I will allow a local pickup but will still have a box charge of $10 per glass.

Looking for 15 preorders, with a minimum of 5 for each otherwise the whole project is off. If we do not get the min. preorders I will refund all monies asap and not revisit this again. I've shopped around for quite awhile for the best deal. I was able to get a discount by ordering a higher qty. Thanks to Rich from thisoldgame for helping me shop around.

These will be reverse screened onto tempered glass with the Midway logo.

A Two-Bit upright bezel repro with 6 colors and approx 483 sq inches is $179. A Shay Arcade group pinball backglass with varying amounts of colors and approx. 728 sq inches are priced between $275-$295. These glasses will have 7 colors (black screened twice) and approx 704 sq inches with the extra cost of rounded corners. If you think the price is high then this project is not for you. A screened underlay and new cut glass will likely run you $100+/-

Please email me directly at [email protected] if you want to preorder. If you are within the 48 states you may paypal me $185 plus $50 shipping directly without contacting me.
 
Wow this is fuckin awesome. Only thing better would be if you had Super Pacman too. I'm down for a Pacman and will paypal you the money on the 29th on this month.
 
Great to see you doing this one (or at least trying to). Darin is right on with his details, tempered glass is not cheap these days, let alone getting it cut and printed on.

Hopefully this happens, I don't have these cocktails in my collection or would be in.

AWESOME! Email sent.

Super Pac-Man would be fantastic as well, but I'm guessing it is just those 3. If Super Pac-Man was added I'd be down for one of those as well.

I can't wait to see the high quality work on this project...
 
Hmmm, only one preorder from the list of 32 people I had compiled.

Usually preorders have an initial rush and we fight like mad to reach the magic number on the last few days.

Not looking good fellas :(
 
Dang, thought this was gonna be a slam dunk, even thought about getting a Pac Man to go along with the Galaga if the ordering was slim, but I can't make up the whole order.
 
C'mon you turds. Make this happen for the community. I don't have any of those machines, but this is awesome and it needs to happen.
 
Ms. Pac Preorder

Holding out some hope that I will be the snowball to start the avalanche - pre-order for Ms. Pac.
 
I think the preorders are just bad timing. Both you and Rich have two going right before Christmas. Id love one of these but funds are tied up until after Christmas :(
 
I'm very interested in a Galaga glass .. but will have to wait until after the christmas shopping is done before I could commit to a preorder.

But, of course, that is before the 31st cut off....

I'm not trying to bust your chops, but why is the shipping so high? I think the price of the part is good, but the shipping seems way too high.

Two Bits only charged me $10 to ship my Super Pac-Man glass, and I have gotten monitors, which are bigger, heavier, and just as fragile, shipped to me VIA FedEx for only $50.
 
I was one of the people who said I wanted a Pac but you were against making them when this started. Doing the pre-order right around Christmas time is going to kill this for a few people, me included.

Not busting my chops at all and I appreciate you asking about it because others may be wondering the same thing. First off, anytime someone is overcharged on shipping I refund money after we ship and know the costs we have into it. There are times when I lose money on shipping but dont come after anyone for it. That's usually when someone lives in a small rural bfe town or along the West Coast.

I went to Fedex.com and entered in the size of the box (29x7x39), the weight (15lbs), declared value ($200), my zip code (46307), your zip code in Cranston RI (02920) and gave me a rate of $31.16. Now add in the box cost of $4.00, packing materials $3.00 and we are at $38.16. My employee makes $15/hour and it takes him 30 mins to pack and process your order. Fedex is 11.82 miles round trip (but I only pay him for one-way because he will stop there on his way home and he doesn't get gas or mileage allowance). He has to wait in line anywhere from 5-30 minutes because they want to inspect all fragile packages.

The $50 you would pay me in shipping, nets about $48.50 after paypal fees. Take the above costs and I lose money on the shipping portion of your order.

Two-bit loses on his $10 bezel shipping, but his product cost is making up for it. His glass is much cheaper to make than mine. It is 32% smaller and lighter than a cocktail glass.

I hope this helps.
