Quoted from Chippewa-Pin:

Depends on how many people who ordered don't get one. Think they'll buy again?

Nobody knows for sure but I would be willing to bet that when the ST LEs come around they will sell just as fast. The guys that were screwed this time around will have to decide if they want to take a chance again or be left out. I feel bad for the people who got screwed. The good news is that there will be another version of the Premium to choose from. Maybe your distributer can cut you a break on the price. To keep you for a customer for life.

Quoted from DugFreez:

I seem to remember Jack backing down from his original allotment of LOTR LE and then Gary getting upset and selling them to Canada. Then Jack come back and said he needed more and Gary said tough crap I sold them to Canada. Then Jack had to order from the Canadian distributor to fill his pre-orders. Seeing that he wouldn't be getting as big of cut of the pie as he was planning on he sent an e-mail to all of his pre-order customer saying her had to raise their price $400 and It was "beyond his control". He then said if anyone mentioned the $400 price hike on RGP he would cancel their order. He was then called out and busted on RGP so he back to his original price (though I figure some of those folks that got the $400 price hike e-mail still paid it and were none the wiser). The customers then get games with Canadian coin doors and one customer in particular wasn't happy about getting a Canadian model machine and Jack calls him a baby and tells him to sit on it.

Does that just about sum it up?

I remember some of this back in the day on RGP but I don't remember all the details. Is this really what happened? I really hope not.

Quoted from Rarehero:

Depends. Will the art be as rad as Metallica? The hand drawn art package definitely made pinball collectors JUMP. Will the toys be as unique and cool? How true will it be to the license (this kinda boned Avengers interest, IMO)? Will people have as much faith in the coding team as they do with Lyman? Will the ST fanbase be as crazy into it as the Metallica fanbase?

Lots of questions but I do know that there are lists already being made for the ST preorders. But it certainly has all the makings for a bad ass pin. Steve and Lyman, new system with stereo, probably an LCD but don't know for sure at this point. Then you have the trek fans, where I'm sure some of them are already pinheads. Who knows but it looks promising. Can't wait to see it. Steve sure seemed excited about it at the TPF last month.

Quoted from CaptainNeo:

This has to be a joke. Nobody buys from Fun.

No joke, many people around here buy from him. I've been a customer for 15 years, I've bought and sold many games with them. But please lets not have this thread take another twist.
