Wow - I dumped another 6 hours looking through 2000 bins. I can't
believe how much stuff is there - amazing. I am going to miss
rummaging through all of that stuff.

I think you might be able to make some arrangements if you talk to
James. It is going to take them a lot of time to pack all that stuff
up - there is a lot of it to pack.

Bryan (Loanguy717) was nice enough to pick up a few items for me from
IPB including P2K glass! Can't thank him enough but I suppose I'll
get to try when I meet him at Expo. I'm still a newbie but it is kind
gestures like this that really make me appreciate this hobby more and
more. Thanks again, Bryan!

Sincerely,
James in VA

Anyone have an idea as to what is going to happen with the inventory?

too bad.
I knew that some of the stuff had already gone but was unaware that
the rest was headed that way also.

We will be better off with it there than we were with it in IL.

Indexed, catalogged and for sale with a little extra shipping cost beats
sitting in a box but nobody knowing what/where it is here!

John's right, and with the Aussie/US dollar even with shipping it will
often work out better than you'd expect. Going to take time for
everything to be cataloged, but it's started and with the amount of
enthusiasm going into it, will make lots of stuff available pretty
soon.

You can watch stuff being added already at www.pinballspareparts.com.au
- right on the front page are ASIC chips for $16.00.

Oh, and the best part is that you've made another of your countrymen
so happy. He cares so much about the hobby that he wants nothing more
than to see this kind of thing happen.
