They never shipped with a Queens chamber. Only the LCD screen. If you buy through Cointaker you won't lose your money. The people that lost money are the ones that bought from HP directly. The bigger question will be how many problems does your new game come with and can they be fixed. If you do decide on an Alien, installing the beacons yourself is quite easy for around $50. For that reason alone I would suggest looking at the SE if you like the game. When the game works correctly it is a piece of art from both an aesthetic and gameplay perspective. When it doesn't, it is a piece of sh*t.
