just wanted to let everyone know who got parts off me, that ALL parts have been
shipped out.

took me awhile to find and make some boxes for some of the larger ramps and
stuff, but all has hit the road. some went as airmail, some as ground, some as
small parcel.

if any packages are missing something or anything is wrong, just let me know.
it was an utter disaster trying to sort thru 500 e-mails and try to get about
40 + packages shipped out in only 3-4 days.... ( god knows how PBR or any of
you other guys manage this stuff aka Mantis Amusements, Action Amusements etc
etc.... ) what a nightmare ;-)

be patient, i have yet to lose a package in the mail and wouldn't see that
happening this time either. some packages could hit the boat and take up to 10
weeks ( no joke )

anyhow, i'll hardly be in for the next few weeks or so since i'm busy moving
and startin' up a new job. so if i don't get back to you, it's cause i'm
honestly not around.

i'll try to keep up every once and awhile but just throwin' out fair warning in
case you try to get ahold of me.

cheers,

grover

Yeah nobody should worry about shipping from 'ole Grover.
I got some piddling plastics for 7 bucks and it looks
like he spent 20 minutes securing them with saran wrap
(for no scratches), tape and then securing the plastics
to a large *strong* piece of "custom" plastic so nothing
got bent or cracked.

If he goes to this much trouble for 7 dollars I hate to see the
actual pins he ships out - must look mummified or in a
cocoon ;-)

actually same job, just new employer. had to pack my pins up last night ;-(((
! all ready for the long haul to the new home.

( but i was thinking of devoting my time to parting out all nbafb's and cp's i
could get my hands on, but then i came to realize there would be no money in
that ;-) )

i guess i have to get on route to get some pin playin' in for the time being-
oh NOOOO, the world of dirty pf's, weak flippers, broken flipper bats and half
workin' switches will be haunting me oh so soon !

cheers,

sorry rob ! i already posted here saying i was cleaning up my e-mail and
accidentally hit spam instead of *file* on a few guys e-mails, you were not the
only one. i didn't figure out how to remove e-mails from the spam list now
that they are in there and i don't know which addresses got knocked.

i also posted for you just to post here what you needed with your address and i
could have gotten back to you. if there is a will, there is a way.

i don't spam anybody or kill-file anybody. i read everything since it is
about the true entertainment value of this hobby that keeps me goin' ;-)

cheers,

My address is included with all my postings and isn't munged either. I
posted
here afterwards and never received a reply.

I was looking for a wiring harness (transformer to driver board), but ended
up
fixing mine by replacing most of the connectors. For $22 I will pass on the
shooter
apron. The other parts I need are just generic like the plastic rear glass
channel and
it's probably not worth shipping that from Germany. Although I also would
like a nice
unscratched top metal plate from the front of the head. I'm trying to be
cheap here of
course as I have blown my budget again on a used game :)

No hard feelings Grover.

that i can throw at you with no problem, but packages alone to america over a
certain size start at 30 USD. ( btw, people will understand about the
ridiculous shipping prices and time it takes as soon as the packages start to
arrive, since the date shipped and cost are on all the packages ;-) ! )

mine was pretty scratched up and had to replace mine with the one good one out
of the three i had.

pf harness from transformer to boards was sold before i even got the pin to my
house.
