Quoted from kpg:

Stern.. such nice guys! Did they send you some lube so it doesn't hurt so much when they bent you over?

That is what their clear is which is the reason why it just SLIPS off the PF.

Im sure that people get tired of hearing me talk about what a garbage company Stern is and how they knowingly and willfully fuck their customers while happily taking your money but did I read correctly that you live close enough to load that POS in a truck and actually dump it on their doorstep but you decides to go through the trouble and expense of restoring a PF with just a few plays on it? That makes no sense to me. You will have to sand the clear off the PF without getting into the artwork and reclear it. Crazy. It would be easier and cheaper to buy a uncleared PF from Stern if you could take the smirk on their faces when they take even more of your money.

You are correct there. I have never really liked them. I have always found them to be inferior to Williams games. What I find slightly funny now is that they finally have started putting out games that are equal or better than Williams when it comes to stuff on the PF and complexity of the game which combined with the deep, deep rules would make excellent games but their quality control is so bad and their prices are so high that more people than ever are bitching. It isn't like I haven't tried to like them though. I have owned a Spiderman, LOTR, THPP, RBION and a POTC and I got rid of all of them and replaced them with W/B games. I got rid of my WOZ as well.

Good luck with your PF. Even though it makes no sense to me, it obviously does to you so I wish you well with it. GB is definitely a good game. I enjoy playing it when I see it. Are you sending the PF out or are you going to tackle it yourself? I am looking forward to seeing the pics of the progress.

The OP seems to be avoiding the question of HOW he is going to go about getting the PF recleared. Obviously he is going to send it out. Im curious as to whom he is going to send it to and how they are going to guarantee that it isn't going to ghost.
