Second one from Arcadeboneyard

how do you always find that stuff at arcadeboneyard? to me this is probably the worst homepage in the long history of bad homepages and i give up looking for stuff quickly because the page sucks that much :evil: :evil: :evil:
all i need is ... PONG - and a select few others: TOUCH ME, DRAGON'S LAIR, JOUST, ROBOTRON, MR DO, SAN FRANCISCO RUSH THE ROCK!!!

weird....

I have taken off the marquee to get an inside pic and to my surprise, the switch appears to be part of the flourescent marquee light housing as one unit. The light fixture is positioned with the on/off switch centered in that hole. I have not seen this setup before. That square hole by the switch is the top of flourescent light fixture.

What I notice that even when sellers in the US ship to Europe or world-wide, they often indicate "not to Italy" because they have had so many bad experiences.

I'm a bit amazed that Italy still has a terrible post system like this today.

P.S. NOTE : with this remark I am _not_ attacking any Italian people out there ! I love Italy and the Italians ! Grazie milla !

Me too, I see very often such shipping notification on various US ebay items : No shipping to these following countries : France & Italy !

I've sent months ago something in Italy at it takes ages to come  :-\ Fortunately it arrived in one piece.

Yes it's a big problem ...  :-[

... but in these last two years the service has improved (with priority mail international from USA l've always received everything in 12-14 days - not bad  :P)

and it's the first time that I received a package in these conditions (and I've received several packages ...)

so ... hope for a better service in the near future  ::) :roll:

Yes I often see racism against french people, especially in the US.
But this doesn't avoid me of being stolen by a US thief.

c'est la vie.
