    Thank you!
    I did box it up and take it to FedEx, no discount. That being said, I had someone "help" me pick up a machine from out of state once - Arizona, I live in Utah. The fee to have FedEx pack the machine and ship it was $200... Wayyyy more than I paid for the machine! So there's an example of variations in cost between locations. I think it also helps to pack the box yourself.

    I think I may make a post on shipping machines safely and how to pack them. It really isn't hard! I learned after receiving 6 or more machines from Japan. Most the machines had very little to no packaging inside and the boxes were no wider than the machine and only slider larger depth-wise to protect the screen. I was amazed these machines could make it from Japan to the States without significant damage but I honestly think the less room for the machine to move around, the better. You have to protect the screen and glass, that's a given, but the frames are surprisingly durable. I'll post something soon with pictures as soon as I ship another one out.
    Pachi Fever!
