    I am amazed that some people will purchase a new machine at a premium price, play it about 200 times and sell it. That is like purchasing a new car and selling it when it is time for an oil change. That makes no sense to me. Just my opinion.

    The AC/DC premium machine that I purchased a few years ago was advertised as having broken ramps and new ramps were provided for installation on the machine by the buyer. When I got the machine, it had well over 15,000 plays on it. There is no wear that I can see on the playfield or the shooter lane, other than a mark on the lower playfield made by someone that was replacing a target there that probably had no idea what they were doing. There was a lot of electronic problems and adjustments required that were neglected on the machine, that I fixed. It also needed a lot of plastics and rubber that were severely worn. After a code update that I did, the plays reset to "0", just so you know. Now, I have about 1,000 plays or so that shows up on the audit. So, be careful when people say that they have less than 200 plays. The condition of the playfield and operation of the machine in general is much more important than the number of plays that shows up on an audit.
