Well, Santa has arrived, granted he was from Serbia, but all arrived intact. Boxes are 31 x 25 x 18 1nd will get one off the pallet later today to put on the scale, but can figure for now 79 lbs per the manual. Most boxes are factory sealed, but there are 2 open boxes with no packing material and then several I can se that have been re-taped. The one box I opened from factory seal , the unit is vacuum packed in static bag and then surrounded by expanding foam shipping bag. Will go thru them all hopefully today after I get off work and start getting them ready to go. Will send a later email with my paypal or venmo for payment for the unit and freight getting them to me to .
So far looks like there is only one manual, will get that of to Nick to scan , or I might dig out my duplex scanner and see if it still works. One way or another will get it scanned so all can have a copy.

Sorry for the duplicated emails, but wanted to make sure everyone received so sent to greenkeys and all emails I have showing interest. Requests for machines have exceeded qty of machines.
So, sending this out today, I was originally going to wait till Monday after I was able to look at all of the machines and make sure that they area all complete, but with the added interest in these, I am reaching out to the group, mainly those asking for more than one machine, if you are willing to give up some of your extra machines to allow everyone to get one. I had 3 for myself, and was going to give at least one to a museum, but will be passing one to the AWA museum and one to SAMSAT in San Antonio. We are still short on machines compared to requests. Currently have 39-41 requests, and only 46 machines. I am keeping the time stamp of the emails, so if it comes down to it, that is the way they will be distributed. I wish we had 2 or 3 more pallets of these, but we have to work with what we are getting.
I guess with this email we need to shut down the requests for machines for now, and if we end up with people offering up their xtras, will then list how many are available and distribute those accordingly to either late request that have come in , or offer up to those that were after more than one.
I still need addresses and phone numbers on some of yall. pdf of current spreed sheet attached for reference. As far as shipping, once I get a solid dimension and weight on them, we can further discuss. Might be easiest if you were to arrange via FedEx or UPS and send me the shipping label, but we can talk about this next week. As I have mentioned to one member, I will be going to Cedaar Rapids IA either in August or September and could bring them with me for one or more to meet me and help with distributing them in that area. Have plenty of room as will be driving F350 in order to pick up a Grundig stereo console my son picked up for me. Again, we can work this all out.
