I'm watching this thread once more, as I've ended up with someone's Egret II slot in the end.

Hey Xed, I have a secured E2 on the list it just so happens that @Hatsune Mike and I are buds, and my E2 is going to end up with him. Hence the source of the confusion. I'm not giving up my spot :D
 
Update time.

The container for US and Montreal will start loading on Monday and Vancouver will be the Thursday/Friday. It will leave port about 1 week after depending on the shipping schedule. Q25 is not 100% accurate. I have 4 working cabs. 4 have 2 player CP. 3 of 4 will have jamma harness the 4th has a mahjong harness. 2 of the 3 jamma harness cab have the rotate mech (yeah... I'm a little piss about this misinformation) I was hoping to get a Q25 for myself but I may have to pass on this now depending what the other interested Q25 party want. For the non working E2 and Windy they repaired the chassis but the cabs themselves only have enough good parts to scab together 1 extra E2 and Windy. Not sure what I'm going to do with these yet. I will be accepting deposit next week a few at a time. I want to offset them so I don't flag PayPal and have my account froze. Sigh.... what a learning possess this has become. Definitely going to change a few things if another opportunity arise.

converted NNC, Q25, and Domy pics have been added to drive.

Oh and to all the NNC people do you want 1P or 2P cp (I don't recall If I asked this)

Starting Monday Wednesday I will pm people on the list. You will have 24 to put the initial deposit down. After that I will move to the next person.

ok np I should have another paycheck by then and I have a friend who said they would loan me if I get 2 cabs. So excited. I'm just trying to figure out were in going to sleep if I take my bed out of my room to fit 2 more cabs.
 
Thanks for the update, XeD. I appreciate the effort you're going through to make this happen.

O-O-O-Oak-land? Oakland?

@Cereth, any chance we can pick up at the port of Oakland? Would save me, @rewrite, @theoddtech about 12 hours off our trip if we can. Of course, we'll have to find some place other than Boomtown to chow down at now though.

@XeD, thanks so much for fronting all of us on this. We all owe you a huge debt for putting this together. And big thanks to @Derick2k and @Cereth for stepping in and lending resources to make this happen for members stateside.

Only a licensed trucking company can pick up a container at port, and you cannot unload on the docks. The only way you could pick up in the area is if you have storage and a means to unload in the area. If you have dock height storage, can unload, store, and process the container, then you can pick up in Oakland.

Alternatively if roughly half the cabs are being delivered to the Bay and you have a dock service we can use in the area, we could both meet up with a 26' truck and take half the load. Either way, in order to pick up in Oakland, we need our own facility with a dock that we can unload at, and transfer that load into two 26' trucks. I pay $500 for such a service in Reno. You will absolutely need to be there the day it happens and have a truck ready. I'll look into locations in the area.

EDIT: For reference, you have something like 24 hrs once the container is released to deliver, unload, and return the container. There is a fee if it isn't returned in time. There is also a fee to the trucker if the container isn't unloaded and have them on their way in a certain time. Also seriously if you want to go this route it'll probably overall save everyone, if you can find something where we can do this let me know and we can go for it! There's about a month we can take to plan for this, I won't need to prep a trucker to pick up until around when the container arrives.

While we're on the subject @Cereth I'll be using Michelle/STI for delivery of my cabs and have had good experiences with them in the past. I think you mentioned you use them as well. In my case since I'll be arranging delivery to Dallas Texas, STI would pick them up from you in Reno Nevada then correct?
 
Yep, that costs the same shipped from pretty much anywhere. Regional hubs are $50-100 cheaper but getting them there balances it out. To give you an idea, if I shipped to SF for example, it's no cheaper or only a few dollars cheaper than shipping to say VA. They have a minimum cost per order, which is why 1 cab is roughly $500, and two cabs to the same location would be roughly $20 more
