AFM is an older slower geriatric IM for noobs...lol

Quoted from markmon:

Having both games, a properly waxed and restored afm is definitely faster than a properly waxed as set up nib ironman. This is probably due to more shots returning to the flippers faster. And the afm slingshots are the fastest in pinball - faster than acdc. At least if the game is proper restored. That stuff will slow down as it ages.

I went with cash in hand to buy an AFM and after a half hour of playing it left with my cash. This particular game was kind of a roach but I don't care if the play field was covered with marble from the lost world of Atlantis and ordained by the pope shop job i thought it blew. I lifted the play field to look it over and it was a plank with one giant light board fastened to it. Where is the 5-10k worth of parts? Any whole item should be at least worth the sum of its parts is that giant light PCB worth 3k I thought? Truth is this hobby is just sad and full of both greedy and gullible people.
