I've heard the guy is difficult to deal with. The whole situation is a double edged sword. Its great that someone is replicating these play fields so users can bring their games back to life. Yet on the other hand he charges a lot of money for his product, and doesn't really care about quality control or customer service. I'm not sure why he doesn't inspect these play fields and rate/price them appropriately. Bottom line in this hobby most people are fine paying top dollar for a high quality product, and are pissed when it shows up looking substandard

Quoted from Jrotten:

CPR Playfields are no picnic either. Clear them & out the door. Even cured, lots of dimples after a month of play.

At least the guy provides a rating system....Mirco makes the assumption that everything is Gold standard and doesn't back his product when its not

I completely understand why some would be frustrated with the guy as he seems like a complete tool. I've never purchased a new play field from the guy, but I have owned all the JJP games. On those games some have been very nice (Hobbit, DI, GNR), and others have been not so great (Wonka, POTC). That being said what are the alternatives? If the guy had real competition then he would probably change his business practices.
