I can 100% relate to this André.

As you know I am selling most of my games at this moment. Love the space I get in return. Not really missing the games, maybe Mario Bros.
Rather play GTA V on my game PC or play PS4 or Nintendo Switch games

I always looked at my games from a museum kind of view. Nice to have them standing there, looking great. But hardly play them.

At least your games were all running

I had 10 out of 13 cabinets that were projects in different stages of completion.

I have used bubblewrap with cardboard in the past as well. But bubblewrap came out much more expensive the time when I used it.
Really love this shrink-wrap. Works a little like tape, you can wrap it real tight. And rolls are pretty wide so not to much work running around the cabinet

Last week a friendly but tired courier from Budapest (not my first choice, I would have gone with Dachser) came to pick up Asteroids and Centipede.
Truck didn't have a lift, so had to lift the cabinets with 3 guys by musclepower. Not easy and not preferred

Guy drove 14 hours to get here. Was going to take a nap in his cabine and then back to Hungary.

Oh no problem with the strap.
The company I have used almost a dozen times in the past handles the pallets and freight very carefully.
They use a pallet truck like this one: http://www.midlandpallettrucks.com/adminimages/Company_16/AC25A-NYLON.jpg, a lift and strap the freight to the side of the vehicle as well. Never had any problems. I always send with Dachser. Not the cheapest but a really good and international transport company.

Don't make Pinge and RogerXY afraid now

But what about my cardboard and wrap skills?
