OK Guys, looking to finalise the order with Steve.
As such, i'll be accepting any remaining orders up until Sunday night - and sending Steve a final list.
Hopefully we get these before Christmas, LOL

Latest list attached

Thanks
Evan

Apologies, progress has been slow these past couple weeks - however i have managed to contact Steve again this morning.
I should have prices and shipping estimates shortly (fingers crossed)

Alright guys - deep breaths and perhaps take a seat at risk of getting weak at the knees....

Here is the pricing as provided by Steve.
Total comes to $4,278 USD and with some added incidentals (swift costs and exchange rates) total AUD equivalent is $4,901.
Shipipng is an ABSOLUTE killer!
Exchange rate has also moved against us - My Bank today is selling USD at 0.8477 - I should be able to negotiate something better

A breakdown of the costs is provided in the attached spreadsheet - $175 each glass + shipping and packing costs.
Average cost is about $306AUD each backglass - however he has based on weight of the glass (which aparently varies per game)

I am still happy to proceed at this cost.
If this is still to go ahead, i suggest funds should be transferred to my my Bank Acc and i'll arrange the transfer.

Thoughts/comments/suggestions welcome

How are they shipping (fast or sea)?
With the Aus $ heading south it may be good to order sooner than later.
If you don't remember the 70s then you were on drugs.
If you remember playing pinball in the 70s you were having a good time.

Shipping via USPS - insured to face value
Yes, Dollar is getting smashed, so i want to move on this ASAP.

If you are all comfortable, I am happy to be the custodian of the funds and finalise the transaction.
If anyone has any objections - please speak up, otherwise I will provide my BSB/Acc details tomorrow morning.

I want to aim for all payments to appear in my account by Monday COB which means, transfers NEED to be made by Thursday Lunchtime.

Updated spreadsheet attached - Being transparent to all here - I've done a quick reconciliation on today's exchange rate.

Guys I'm going to assume everyone else is still committed.

Steve has requested payment via
PayPal to: Shazzam@comcast.net

This means we can all make individual payments, however are at the mercy of their exchange rate.
Please make payment in USD as per the spreadsheet above and comment here once funds are transferred so that I can keep a record.

Once you have transferred funds, can you please post here with the following:
Forum Name: Paypal Address: USD Transferred

I'll be the first:
Sinbad79 : customcraft@adam.com.au: $317.60USD

Finally, we are done!.
What an effort!
