I talked to Steve about a month ago. He was getting out of the parts business, just doing backglasses and playfields from what I understand, it's too bad as he had LOTS of Data East NOS parts. |

Whatever you do, don't ask him to ship via USPS as opposed to UPS.
He'll lose it. |

How the hell do you lose stuff USPS unless you don't ship it in the first place..... Should I do the math and just stop asking questions on that aspect? |

I still say UPS loses or destroys more packages coming to Canada than USPS Priority Mail does, and they charge you extra brokerage for the priviledge. Have things sent by air if by UPS or Fedex, it costs a bit more, but often saves headaches. |

UPS are brokerage bandits for ground shipments. Criminal would be a good description of this service. |

Well, actually he's shipped me stuff before via USPS, it got here fine. Might have been a one time thing... Actually Steve's shipment got here quicker than most orders I've had with Marco. If you have a big item (eg. Backglass ) you want to get from him, I'd suggest asking him to bring it to the Allentown show in the spring, and pick it up in person. |
