About this Service:
Hello gamers. The lot of us arcade game lovers have been through it many times. Our addiction makes us buy these big heavy games but unfortunately a lot of us don't have the equipment or vehicles to transport them. So, many games that we could have had went by the boards. The sad part is that from time to time games that could have gone into a nice safe collection ended up in the wrong hands or ended up in a garbage land-fill. In response to this we have created this web site, the only definitive guide to arcade shippers, to try and help all arcade addicts.
Shipping games is one of the most complex and nerve racking experiences, but it doesn't have to be. If we can assemble a network of people that are willing to ship (nationally or in their local area) for reasonable prices, even only once a year, maybe some of the games that we love won't get lost in the shuffle.
Adding
your service to the Directory:
Commerical
and national shippers please contact us for listing information.
Also, we urge all of you who have the ability to ship door-to-door in your
area locally to contact this
website. Send me a list of the areas or states you are willing to
ship to, how much you charge and how often you go. Please be as reasonable
as possible ($150 or below when possible) and please help out in forming
this network. We will all benefit from it.
