Well the original description of “beautiful “ can be questioned. I just got a pin from the original seller to the op so my curiosity was peaked.

I looked over both set of pics and you maybe over paid up front ,but , this is not a trashed game as one person tried to point out.

The good:
The playfield and plastics. Maybe the most important part.
Newer Rottenburg boards for the CPU and power supply (purchase price say 300 bucks)
The underside of the playfield looks fine
The cabinet looks solid. A little sand paper on the inside of the cabinet will improve
All in all a good players quality core with out firing it up to see if it all works

The bad:
Corrosion on some top side hardware. Can be cleaned up with little cost and elbow grease
The touched up decals with red marker. The red marker can most likely be removed with some goof off. Little cost and some elbow grease. Still a faded game but most are.
The play field glass can be replaced. 20 bucks
The play field glass channel can be replaced. Maybe 10 bucks
The side rails can be replaced 70 bucks
The snow caps and asylum plastics may be improved with a little work with a heat gun
The play field crack, now not disclosing this would piss me off , I would glue and clamp.
The coin door can be spray painted. Not sure the door dent is worth worrying about
All of this could be resolved with about two days of work and small cost. A top side shop job with new rubber and LEDS not included.

We all over pay on a game in our time in this hobby. I know you stated you did not want to spend time on this game but my recommendation is to do just that. Warm up the game , fire it up, clean it up and learn from all of the above. Play the game for a couple of years and sell it later. This game will appreciate a bit. Great price point for a top 50 B/W DMD game. You may salvage a largepart of your spend and get the pleasure out making a game better then you got it.

Have you gone back to the seller and state you are unhappy? I would point out the crack in the playfield as he stated how good it was. I would ask for a 300 dollar refund. He may work something out. You have treated him very fairly here ( others would not). Worth a shot. Best wishes. We have all been through some thing like this.
