pinball come back home

[SquidVicious]

I'll know more after this weekend. Gerry, do you have an ETA on when the pickup could be made?

Any idea yet, Brock?

Also for Gerry... is there a more solid Quebec ETA yet?

One thing to remember is the date to Harbour has nothing to do with the date the container will clear customs ... that is something Gerry has zero control over .. could be quick could take awhile I've seen both ... I think the first container was held about 5 days or so.

Has there been a decition on how we're getting the machines into Toronto?

It's in the "spousal-negotiation" stage.. I think Gerry said we're aiming for the last weekend of April.

It looks like the pins are just about to cross Gibraltar Strait.

Are people able to pick up their pinball machines in Montreal, or does the entire container get shipped right away to Beauce, QC and we have to pick them up there?

 

[tim.sanderson]

Gerry figures they should be ready sometime around the 27th. Brock will let us know if he's able to get them or not. I figure I'll start looking at other shipping options around the 20th.

So close!

 

[REVOLUTION]

I'll get a firm answer today. The delivery is dangerously close to a NASCAR trip I'm taking to Talladega but I'll try my best to sell it to the spouse

Someone is just as excited as I am.

Right? I'm way too excited!

 

[tim.sanderson]

I sure did. I just sent an email to everyone in the shipment. (except for Brock. I don't have his email addy yet)
For some reason the first shipper backed out of the shipment. I'll have to find another way.

What's the status now?

 

[Gerry]

pinball arrives at my place this afternoon :!: :!: :!:

Did you guys remove the heads before moving or loading them up? Trust me I have had my share of back problems so take good care of it Brock

I feel your pain. Literally. I have two pinched nerves at the base of my spine. They were acting up while unloading the truck, but now it's really bad after wrestling my machine into the basement yesterday. I had to use my desk chair just to help me get out bed this morning!
