mr_intv Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 According to my tracking # it has been delivered to freewheel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freewheel Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Arrived! So, the shipping has been greatly reduced because virtually all of the games got removed Some very interesting random stuff in here though. Kinda cool. I can definitely contribute to the... eclecticness here. While I'm going to try to add some Inty games that aren't super common, for those later on the list: are there any non-Inty systems you guys are into? I have tons of spare stuff for a lot of systems. Also, I'm going to try my damnedest to fix this one cart. I think it might just be a busted leg on the one IC. If it works...muahahah.

mr_intv Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Just for the record I only added carts, I didnt take any. LOL. The broken cart could make someone going for a complete collection very happy indeed. I thought about seeing if i could get it working once I recieved the grab bag but didnt want to hold it up.

freewheel Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Heh, yeah, I was referring to the culling that happened to make the cross-border cost not insane. There were a LOT of common carts removed, which makes sense. There's quite a lot of random stuff in here that I like. I'm going to have to think long and hard how to add enough to keep it interesting, while not just adding 6 copies of Night Stalker. Are French Canadian variants in any way desirable in Europe? We should also start discussing what happens when it's "done" - maybe the last person can bring the remainder to PRGE with them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freewheel Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Aaaaaaaaaaand go Canada. It's on its way to the next lucky contestant. Hopefully the next few people enjoy what's in there; it was a bit surprising to me. I did take all sorts of random odds and ends though. Some fun stuff in there.

freewheel Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Just make sure to add something fun So far Canada is doing more addition than subtraction. We need to show up the lazy Yanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m-crew Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Just to let everyone know , we have had a discussion with the last remaining three contestants on what to do with the grab bag. Since There is nothing of value or anywhere close left in the grab bag except a few items that FreeWheel/Mr Intv has added.(have disclosed everything left in the bag to the last contestants through a PM). This round of the Grab Bag has ran its coarse and will be put to rest in a Canadian Corn Field to lay in peace for ever.. Peace Out grab bag.. There will be a few items that I will be shipping to the last Contestant provided by Freewheel.. Freewheel and Mr_Intv have been advised on what will be happing,,,,, It has been fun watching this travel grab bag during the past couple of years... Cheers m-crew 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m-crew Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 (edited) BodyShots pulled out, Really a picture, Here's the list and if you really want a picture I will all that was left in the box was a few buttons , business or show pamphlets/common overlays/ one loose triple action and a loose DragonFire with manual and overlays,2 grocery bags, a space armada small LCD handheld, some candy and a onze bottle of booze and 3 music cds. not counting what Im shipping out and what Freewheel sent me Edited January 16, 2018 by m-crew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_intv Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Good idea m-crew....its hardly worth shipping over seas at this point. The grab bag is a great idea unfortunately when its been passed on this many times its only going to deteriate. It was fun non the less but maybe going forward we need separate USA/Canadian/European versions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I have a mental image of the box when I shipped it out, so it would be satisfying to see the package before it's put out to pasture. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IT shrunk while traveling the USA lol Edited January 16, 2018 by m-crew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 How much of that stuff was in the box at the very beginning? For that matter, how long did the original box last? I think it was a double-walled box, so I'm kind of curious how long it survived before having to be replaced. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m-crew Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 (edited) To show you all that the the box and content shrunk when it was shipped to Canada. Lol Cheers Edited January 16, 2018 by m-crew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 That's still a pretty large box, although I can't tell how long it is from that shot. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
