    The biggest seems to be the ability to "cheaply" repair. As in, the new pins seem to need a $700+ board, not just replacing a transistor.

    Smoothness is another concern, I guess. Older B/W vs Stern. JJP is pretty smooth.

    Future/Resale value? NIB you'll lose about 1k after you bring it home.

    I'm sort of in the same boat.

    And usually even scores, like 35,500,000. Not 35,788,200.

    Yeah, that doesn't sound right.

    Floor models are great deals, if you get the deal.

    Good luck getting straightened out, either with finding a reasonable reason why it's showing so many plays, or getting some discount.

    Maybe the seller can chime in here?
