Need a way of cheap transportation to Italy
« on: August 20, 2010, 06:54:31 PM »
Guys, I'm selling some japanese candy cabs, and at the moment I have interest for a beautiful Egret 3 (http://forum.arcadeotaku.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=12080), also known as an ugly plastic piece of .....  ;)

However, the guy is living in Florence, Italy, and now I'm searching for a cheap way to get the cab there. I of course asked a few quotes from transport companies, but their prices are pretty high.

any good ideas here?

Get your buyer to call local transport companies and see if any of them have a van/truck delivering to the Netherlands and coming back empty.

Flame on if it makes you feel good.  :) I can take it.

I mean, not all people can handle the broad interest in gaming experience from different era's and areas like I do. You don't have to be ashamed of that.  :D

What is cheap? DHL land transport is about 300 euro for a 70x70x180cm box with 60 kg inside.

Ah, played this cab a lot on my holiday, and I'm not against it at all! But I also play xbox360 and a lot of other more modern systems. Hope you will find a cheap and easy way to get it at your home.

Not at it, but from it. I have one and I'm going to sell it.
