those advocating patience should ask themselves how they would feel if they were stuck with a pin that they couldn't sell....6 months is long enough to replace the pf....part of the issue is that there is no guarantee that the affected owners will even receive a new pf....

also, the smudging of the date and using an older pf for a replacement is indefensible....that is beyond sleazy...kind of shocking truthfully....

sorry to hear that...I may have missed it but if you have not posted your replacements pf details, please do. When you received it, date of manufacture and anything else that you can think of...

Unreal that Stern has not got this issue under control....its only been 6 months or so...

I don't want to fire you up as you have had plenty of aggravation of late....Would it have killed Stern to send the replacement play field first and then you can ship your defective one back? I understand the logic and how some would take advantage of this type of policy but given the circumstances, it would have been appropriate for Stern to ship the replacement first.....

also wasn't there a spelling mistake that was corrected in later production dates?? If nothing else, KPG's date better not be smudged!
