Quoted from JodyG:

Why not require preorder list people to pay a non-refundable 25% deposit once you cross the threshold of 100 verbal preorders? If you target to make 80, and have a few back out...you are still really close to having the required number of playfields to justify the run. People are going to be a lot more willing to pay for the rest of the playfield balance when it is ready to ship if they have a couple hundred bucks in it already. Seems to be working swell for Spooky...

25% if its guaranteed within 6-9 months sure, the problem is it was taking them years and years to get a playfield out. Then they get pissy when people changed their mind after 4-5 years lol
