I had a machine transported between Adelaide and Brisbane recently. Was under $250.

If u need a hand having the machine picked up from Brisy end, just PM me. If its a professional seller they shld be able to wrap n pack n organise transport.
If its a private seller who cant help, i am happy to.

regards, Brett   ^^^

I used TNT, but Oscars company above i think is now a better option. I can still pick up n pack a pin from the seller if u need it done. The transport company can get it wrapped from me if need be.

Oscars transport company, transdirect delivered a pin melbourne (door to door) to gold coast , and not having to go to a depot is definately the way to go. worth that little bitit extra $.

Happens with most companies im afraid mate.

I sold a pin and the seller organised TOLL to pick it up from my house which they did on a tuesday. He emails me next tuesday to find out where it was (yes thats right - somehow i was supposed to know) but i had no idea.

10 days after it gets sent out theres a TOLL truck out the front and apparently i have a delivery. Yep thats right it took them 10 days to deliver the pinball BACK to my house. So i explain that i was the one that sent it not the reciever. Ends up taking 21 days to Sydney and they dropped it so the guy got his $2k back.

Moral of the story, unfortunatly there are risks involved with every company regardless of the history they have.

Just hang in there, did you have insurance?
