Quoted from Greenfun13:What does everyone think of this used playfield on eBay? I'm not too thrilled about having to clean up the mylar glue.... But say a CPR playfield is out of the question, is this used PF a better option than a hard top?

Most of these NOS or "unused" ones have issues or blems. I wouldn't go with this one. Hardtops look nice and play good and will be an option if you can't find a good original or a new one. But they're as much work as a playfield swap as you have to drop all the switches to sand, should use some 2PAC and you're tearing enough down that it makes sense time-wise to just strip it all down and swap in a new one. If I spent the amount of time to do a Hardtop, I'd be wanting to rebuild all the mechs and clean the harnesses, so I'm basically stripping it down anyway. YMMV
