OK, I won these parts off eBay. Seller stated that he would box things up and mail them, then he takes everything to one of those "pack 'n' ship" places and wants to charge me $108.00.  Including the purchase of all new packaging materials, I came up with under $60 total cost. Have emailed him the discrepancy, but no reply yet. |

what parts??
Joey
42T/96T parts - mech, coin door and all bezels, cap catcher & coin box - I estimated 30x30x12 box and generous 40# weight (door, with bezels and lock bar=15# & mech=10#) Matthews, NC 28105 (just outside of Charlotte). He has got all parts together - Anybody here live in Charlotte? Know anybody not too far away from zip? Feel like helping me out with this ripoff? I won't need anybody if he does what he said in the auction - I'm OK with even half that amount. Told him I would even buy the supplies (up to $20)! |

Wep I agree with that to when the shipping cost is like the double for the value and you now it's like the half for the price

Doesn't always happen this way, but seller wrote back that he was just being lazy and invoiced me with a $45 shipping charge. Now I fear everything will just be dumped in the box  - even though he says he'll package it well. We'll see! |

I had a bud that moved down that way about three year back , and have not heard from him sense he made the move ( and he still has some of my tools  ) Boy sure wish we had the map with the member listed on it  . Tom I hope he does a good job for you on getting that stuff packaged up , instead of just throwing it in a box and shipping it . Pat |

Thanks Pat - It appears it will all be fine. What's wrong with dumping unrestored parts in a box? Not a lot Glen...if you like unnecessary work! |

Doesnt' suprise me much with those pack and ship places though... I understand they have to make money too, but there packing rates are Rediculous.. how hard is it to find a box, small roll of bubble wrap and some good tape! Oh yeah Tom... by the way the parts from the v-39 I'm shipping to you...probably 300-400 dollars... I'm using special Gold plated boxes!!!  |
