5 weeks ago I wanted to get into the pin hobby so I did some research and my 4 YR. old grandson loves cars so I ended up buying a NASCAR pin from a person in the amusement field for $2300 AS IS--that was my first mistake---$850 later I just got my pin back fully shopped board and all (batteries had leaked, I was not aware of and he never offered up that little bit of info) been here two days we have been having a ball with it now in the middle of a game it just starts giving out pts. like its in some kind of bonus mode, I ended up with 128 million pts for the game. I called the guy he said it sounds like it is in the board. I do not know if I am the only one with these problems but I should have followed what I always tell my children---YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR AND I SEEM TO HAVE GOTTEN A LEMON!!!!!!!!!!!! I have had this pin for 5wks and maybe have played it a total of 5 hrs. Now here is my next dilemma --tomorrow I am suppose to go look at a WCS this time from a store, kind of makes me think twice seeing what I am going through with the first pin. Needed to get that off my chest I hope there are better pinball days ahead. Thanks for listening!!!
