Quoted from GAP:My apron was damaged in shipping, my game is an early one and missing a metal guard behind the castle wall. If you hit the ball around the upper loop on the upper playfield it jump the wire for and gets stuck all the time. They made a new part for this on later games. I filled out a ticket, there was one response, will order it for you. That was the last I heard.
Mike did you ever ask your Dist. to take care of the problem? NO you did not!
Ok now that's been stated!
I have sold lots of WOZ'S and have had a few issue's with nib games but most were very simple problems to repair. (loose molex, monitor cables undone, bad fuse) I have had a few board issues with early run games but are now taken care of!!!!!
I have a lot of early run LE,s out there I have sold and NEVER had a problem with!!!!!!!!
As long as were talking about out of the box problems, My ACDCBIB has had problems since day one!
I cant remember how many times the other companys tech dept have told me to reflash the code!!!!!
The bottom line is not every game made is perfect out of the box, no matter what manufacture it is, but from problems more lessons are learned and how issues can be corrected!
