Quoted from inhomearcades:Normal wear and tear. These are pinball machines not collector items. All pinball machines will eventually show wear, some soon, some later. This is normal.
Both my HUO Sterns show this wear. My IJ4 and my 06 run LOTR. both my machines have well under 1000 plays. Like the quote text says they are machines that will wear. Asking for warranty on this would be like asking for warranty on your tires wearing because they made contact with the road. Just my .02
