It may seem like a small thing but I've sent three emails to Heighway now asking about availability of Alien in Australia and had no response at all.

I understand they may not have a definitive answer but just ignoring the question leaves me wondering - if they can't be bothered to reply to a potential customer interested in handing over money to them, how would I fare if I eventually bought one and needed help or support or had a problem?

By contrast I sent a similar enquiry to Spooky Pinball and received a comprehensive response from KT the same day.

Despite my misgivings I like the theme and what I've seen of Alien so far.

I've signed up and posted this here because I can see Andrew does have time to post in forums.

Quoted from RobT:

What's the point of having the new "verification" system if posts like this from a brand new account can continue?

It's a genuine post. I'm a member on Aussiearcade with the same user name. I'm not trolling anyone. I'd just like a reply from Andrew or someone at Heighway is all.

Quoted from PaulCoff:

Post KT's letter within the next 5min or it didn't happen... Seems like a troll post to me?
Keep up the hard work Andrew, don't let the trolls get to you.

You can email me if you want one. We use Dom & Chris Slevin at Pizza N Pinball to handle the receiving end and importing. We are also trying to get to the point that they can maybe get an extra game or 2 to sell once they get there.

Hi KT,

I live in Sydney, Australia and would like to understand how I would go about buying your next machine if I am interested in the theme once it is announced?

Many thanks

Quoted from Yipykya:

Apologies db666. I would use your new pinside account to PM Andrew with your questions.
Hope your Aussie distributor gets established successfully with Heighway Pinball!

Thank you.

#9226 7 years ago
Quoted from PaulCoff:

I still call BS or English is a 2nd language to you because I asked you to post KT's letter.
Anyways, Hope you get your game and best to you and everyone in Australia that play Pinball.

As is traditionally the format with email KT's reply is above my initial enquiry. Perhaps you should go back and re-read what I posted.

Yes, I believe he speaks Australian.

I'm actually English by birth but live in Australia so I'm bilingual !

Quoted from HeighwayPinball:

Please accept our apologies for not getting back to you sooner.
We are overhauling many aspects of our business and are behind on emails. We are catching up - but not as quickly as we would like.
We do have an Australian distributer lined up, and will be announcing this shortly.
I will also personally respond to your email tomorrow.
Regards,
Andrew

Thanks, Andrew.

Hi Andrew,

I did re-send another email last Thursday referencing this exchange from last week on Pinside so you could identify me. I hope you got it ok.

Daniel
