I have this same PVM. It is in a little rougher cosmetic condition but great PVM. I think it is nice you are looking out for fellow members. Now I have my first PVM I'm sure it will not be my last as it is not like I could get mine fixed if it breaks.
I don't live in the area and the funspot meetup sounds fun I wonder how many members are in Texas. I think a few but we can be so spread out.
