Nick,
had try to send you an email from my phone, but it is having issues connecting to the mail server, always something. Ive had a few members complaining about the cost to ship, I have not looked into the rates yet and I am talking to our logistics rep to see what he might be able to do, but that would be more out of my pocket. Didnt know if you might be able to offer your discount if they set it up through you, and payed you. I would have to get my end approved by the owner to use our shipping company.
will get yours ready to go today and drop it off on my way home. Will put the manual in it as well

I do have a machine available for you if you want one, had a few give up their extras and have everyone covered as of now. We did get a second manual in one of the factory sealed units that we checked and all of the factory units have one roll of paper, no power cords have been found yet. Have not opened too may factory boxes, but there might be more manuals in some of them. The refurbished machines dont have any manuals, paper or cords so far. Have 18 refurb and the bal appear to be NOS
I you do want a machine, I will just put one of the manuals in there and you can send me a shipping label of your choice.

I’m also handing off a spare ribbon cartridge to greenkeyer John Toebes who volunteered to create a CAD model for 3D printing.

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.

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.
