Im still in for Aztec.
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.
If you don't remember anything,  then read about it here,

I'm still in for the big casino but no mention of my big dick?

   I wonder if he has 1955 gottlieb marathon?

I'll ask about your big dick and casino.

I'll be calling him after work - with any luck i wake him up at 3am

I will commit to my order. Considering I have three on order, and most likely two in the first shipment, I'm happy to have a shipment sent to me and other Victorians can pickup from my business or I can post in my CPR boxes.

I would like to see costings and shipping prices. they must be 100% insured at value as well. Another recommendation is to have the price of the BG's AND shipping UNDER AUS$1000 per box. If they go UPS, I think it will not matter.

But I'm 100% in buying the BGs - and I will want to purchase more in the future if communication is not an issue.

Nino
Advice and comments noted.

Also, he is unable to replicate the mirror finish on one of your back glasses is that an issue?
I have the same problem on the galaxy BG, but i'm OK with that.

I noted that and it is much better than the JL I own without a backglass ! So I'm ok with that.

Thanks Mate, I'm still in for an Asteroid Annie glass if it all pans out. It'll be good to judge the quality of the glass first hand. Hopefully Annie doesn't go on a road trip like Xenon, she's still partying in Chicago.

I'm still in.  ^^^

I confirmed my interest via email today. Also, I confirm my interest here. To get an original art backglass for 'Ace High' will be fantastic. Thanks for sticking with this. Let me know how/where payment is required. Thanks, Mark

OK progressing well so far.
Tried calling him this morning but no answer - left a message - i'll keep trying.
Only outstanding confirmation is from "guy with a pinball"

I have attached a revised list of the order and how i think we should best approach it.
One order - two tranches (shipments).
By this i mean we pay what is required for the entire order up front - receive what is already available in Tranche1 which will commit Steve to complete artwork for those not yet reproduced. I am suggesting this approach so that we can get the best possible price for a "bulk" order.

The SA guys (Boots, Studley and OneTaste) seem to be worse off as the artwork isnt complete or available, so i would like to hear from them as to any suggestion or comments regarding my proposal - or if in fact they are still interested.

Evan

EDIT: Nino - i'm thinking i'll have to have my Galaxy BG shipped to you. Are you able to provide me a rough estimate on shipping cost from VIC to SA? - Thanks

PM replied.

Guys we need to get moving on this (i know its up to me) as the $AUD/$US (0.9166) is moving against us. Today's U/E figures will also impact if the result is higher unemployment - will push AUD lower.

Good news - just spoke with Steve on the phone.

He has confimed the following:
1. Shipping is insured to purchase price value
2. Shipping via USPS (guaranteed 5 day shipping or shipping cost refunded)
3. Big D#$k available
4. Likes the idea of a 2 tranche approach
5. Will confirm which glasses will be done as part of Tranche 2

I have asked him to provide a firm price on the items and an estimate on shipping and to commit to a date on when we can expect to have the items posted.
I would like to pay the total amount for Tranche 1 up front and perhaps a deposit on Tranche 2.


Progress...
