Title: Weight of Nintendo vs cocktail tables? Also need tips on shipping
Post by: Arcadiac on May 19, 2005, 11:54:37 am

Hi y'all, I'm looking to ship the Two Nintendo VS cocktails that I have for sale to a potential overseas buyer. 
I'm terrible at estimating weight, does anyone have an idea how much these things weigh that could help me make a fair guess-timate?

If it helps, each is made of steel, has 2 monitors, 2 sets of coin mechs, and standard arcade machine guts. 

Also, any do's and don'ts on international shipping to New Zealand?

Your help is appreciated.
Thanks, ARCADIAC!

They must be hard up for Vs cabs in New Zealand because I venture to guess that shipping is going to cost more than the cabinets, themselves. I bet those things are 150 - 200 pounds each.

It's not a full-sized upright so it doesn't have all the wood, but it does have 2 monitors and alot more metal.
