I just got a package from Pinball Life in the states for my Ironman( shaker motor kit and some other goodies).
Paid for it last Friday and used the basic shipping option. I wasn't really expecting it until next the week or so but there ya go...top service! ^^^

That is good!
I bought a Bally MPU kit from Mike Homepin in Kuranda QLD.. was posted before he went away to China for a week and arrived in Brisbane AFTER he had returned.

Actually I am still in China for another week and a half - at this time of year it is impossible to get a ticket due to Chinese New Year. I'm sure there will be plenty to do here starting with moving to a bigger and better office in Shenzhen - while the Chinese are away for a month holidays I will sneak up on them - hahaha
Anyway, have you assembled that MPU yet? If not - WHY not? %.%

Can i ask how much the shaker motor kit was including freight ? I have a couple prices from two Aussie suppliers, but i haven't placed an
order yet.
-
It was a bulk order with quite a few other bits and pieces so frieght was combined but the shaker motor kit was us$190 or something like that.
-
$190 that's not bad. I have prices of $225 plus freight and $250 plus freight, both here in AU. Maybe it's time i consider looking at buying
from the US.

Just got to install it now Mooman and not let it sit in the box.!

Hey, I placed an order with Pinballife last year, and was expecting freight to be expensive because there were a few weighty things in the order, and going on their shopping cart it came to about USD$90 for shipping which i thought was fair enough, and then lo and behold I get a Paypal refund of about $43 which was the difference between Shopping cart estimate and the actual cost once packaged and then weighed at the post office.
I was gobsmacked, and needless to say I would have got some more stuff if I realised postage was going to be that reasonable.
Pinballife so far have my overall vote for best supplier when you consider shipping time and actual cost of shipping, cant wait to order again.

yep, have to agree. Pinballlife is very very good for shipping. Terry is always good with postage etc. i never use the postage calculator and always ask that he check it, cause it gets divided in half when its calculated properly.
i ordered sample stuff from pinballlife and from cointaker on the same day, 4 weeks ago. the pinballife stuff came after 10 days, the cointaker stuff still hasnt arrived.
I sent something to melbourne 3 weeks ago, it still hasnt arrived. our postal system is rooted.
