Item description

Read this carefully. I ordered this machine direct from JJP the end of January 2021. I have not been given any ETA. I had a buyer for my spot and should have been an easy transfer, but direct call to Jen at JJP solidified that this is not a transferable slot...it’s a $9500 slot. I’m not looking to make money or “flip” the spot. Looking for $1000 for the deposit I put down, and 100% responsibility for the game. My fear is that someone wants me to take initial possession and there is a problem...forked, dropped, or warranty related issues...I want nothing to do with any of this. I am willing to just walk away from my $1k if that’s what comes, but thought I’d throw this out if someone is really serious...especially local. JJP has caused this problem and it makes me sad, but it is what it is. If interested, let me know.

If you were even sorta local I would be tempted to take you up on this; I am sure some lucky buyer will be grateful for this chance!

They modified their warranty in March 2021 to exclude playfield problems. Just ask for your deposit back and if they push back point to a contractual change in terms that you did not agree to. They would have to refund your deposit.

Interesting, I may explore that unless someone takes this risk.

There are some folks getting their deposits back now

So shouldn’t your price be $9500? I assume
You want the $9500 so you can pay JJP

Sounds like new buyer would pay him $1000 for deposit and then owe $8500 to JJP when game is ready to ship.

Hopefully JJP is seeing this.

This would be true, but Jen at JJP told me they wouldn’t transfer my spot to someone else...so it’s my problem. I’ll post what’s up when I talk to JJP after the holiday weekend. I just want my deposit money back. Transferring the spot seems like an easy no brainer, but JJP is blocking that.

I like this approach because it's going to be hard to defend the change in warranty and the easiest way for you to get your deposit and be done with the situation all together.

I agree. I also suspect that they will do this to get the spot back and charge $10500, instead of the $9500 slot I got. Lots of pm interest, but I really don’t want someone to deal with a possible shipping problem (forked or dropped) or a warranty problem. I’m worried I’d be in the middle of the mess...and that’s the last thing I want.

If I were you, I would take the pin, and sell it for 10.5k in the box. Shipping damage can be claimed, and is a bit, of an irrational fear. Make a grand, whoever buys it(and it will get purchased quickly at 10.5k), knows the crap shoot that is JJP playfields.

#13 2 years ago

It will sell in a matter of hours regardless of not having any warranty.

#14 2 years ago

Wait... so they won’t refund you the 1k despite their chronic shitty playfield issues, and they also won’t let you transfer your spot because it’s locked in at the $9500 before they jacked up the price? If that’s the case... WTF JJP?!?

#15 2 years ago

Yeah it seems like JJP would take this because they could sell it at a higher price. But I guess they want the $1000 plus be able to sell it at a higher price. I’m in the same boat except if this isn’t solved I’ll just buy it and flip it NIB. Unless JJP acknowledges and fixes this I can say it will be my first/last JJP

#16 2 years ago

Look at the box of this one. Shipping damage is rare. This guy knows what to do!

See, you just list it after you get it, but be sure to put the threat of putting it in your line up if it is not bought within 48 hrs.

Yup. Absolutely what is happening.

#19 2 years ago

Yeah that will be my plan if JJP stays silent. Get just enough for the pin, taxes, shipping and my time

#20 2 years ago

Just feel weird with over $10k (even after the balance of $9500 is paid I still need to pay tax and shipping to me) tied up. I also feel it’s a lot to ask a person to guarantee me the money, even if something is wrong...then again, maybe someone is willing to take that risk. Not sure how I feel saying “there’s a problem with the game, but I need my money”...why does JJP have to be so shitty...then again, that’s why I’m out.

Wow. Unbelievable. Add me to the list of folks that will no longer be supporting them.

the only safe thing other than a deposit refund is you find a full price buyer who will pay and wait or buy it and sell it yourself.3 choices well 4 if you eat it and walk but thats not good.

Actually people will buy regardless. Be sure you are clear and honest and let them know it’s “as is” in writing. The right buyer is fully aware and will buy it regardless.

I’m leaning more toward selling. I would like someone on here to get GNR at the original price...as getting my deposit back...if that’s even possible, is just helping JJP as they won’t sell the slot for $9500, but for $10500.

#25 2 years ago

I’m going to take down this ad soon. Just wanted to thank everyone for the interest and input. I am so conflicted as to how to do this, I need to step back and figure this out. Please don’t think I’m looking to flip. If I sell, it will be only for the $1000 deposit I have spent, and to make sure someone benefits from the $9500 slot. But, I need to demand the guarantee of full payment from this individual, no matter the condition of the pin, and I need to come to terms with that first. If only JJP would simply transfer the spot it’d have been done a long time ago...but they won’t. Even after the potential buyer contacted Jen at JJP to assure this all good. Thank you all again.

There’s nothing wrong with flipping, it’s a free market. In this case there’s a very legit reason. Good luck
