    Default Rough shipping indicator - for all you vendors

    I thought this might interest some of the vendors out there. This could be used to let people who are recieving a package know whether it should be accepted or not, especially for people new to pachislo/pachinko. It could save vendors alot on shipping if damaged/jostled product is not accepted. Just a thought, since ive heard that many people have had probs with broken reels, etc. Check it out.

    I ordered a TV from Crutchfield and it had 2 of those on it. One was busted and yes the tv was severely busted. So they do work! Because the box looked perfect. Thank godness for the indicators because I didn't let the freight company leave until I check the screen after seeing the ink indicator. Had it not had them I would have said "thanks" opened it up and then said ahhhh......$#&*.

    So, if they ship you a case of these indicators, do they put one on the outside of the box so you know if all the indicators inside the box might have received rough handling and have all been triggered?

    If you had managed to do this, I think we all may have had to attend your funeral. And of course take all your slot machines.

    There is a tab you pull to activate them so they arent activated until you do. And for only about 2 dollars a piece they are cheap.

    Rich, don't take from your employer, very bad. If anybody wants them they can spend the 2 bucks.
