Quoted from fooflighter:

I'm seeing way more than 3, jandrea95 is a new one to me
I'm thinking the thing to do is immediate damage control. Stop the line. Get a new playfield supplier and make the playfields that have gone out already and damaged whole. Yeah it sucks, $ lost, but put that on the vendor. They need to get out in front of this as future sales are going to plummet with this issue and complete silence from JJP. I bet people would be willing to wait on a tested and true product if only given a hint that there was work being done behind the scenes to rectify the issue (which there probably is - but a hint or a statement would go a LOOOOOOONG way). Right now it looks BAD from a PR standpoint. I've got a $2000 deposit down on an LE and starting to get really worried.

This is probably also connected to the availability issue.
They cant tell you when you get your game, cause they cant tell you when this get sorted.

It's an enigma. Spooky sorted this problem almost right away and ap has never had it?
Stern doesnt seem to care, since their customers are apple'esque.

Then you have jjp, who had this problem for four straight games and how many years?
It recked the initial sale/rumour on wonka, and here we go again.....
Why is this company loyal to mirco? Are they deadset on bellying up?

Quoted from jandrea95:

You are correct, post under left backstage. In this case it looks like they torqued down the post when the clear wasnt even remotely ready.

Theese pf´s are made in germany, then travels over to chicago for assembly.
If the clear isnt ready by then, it never will be.

Quoted from fooflighter:

The posts only need to be hand tight, the rail only needs to be secure, not bolted down tight, hence the entire reason for putting fiber washers underneath the posts, you are making contact but not forcing the rail to cut into the playfield. These posts for the rails are differnet than the sling post contact points

I find it odd everybody should just expect this, but when someone mentions playfieldprotectors, there´s a scream to high heaven, that it affects the feel of ball movement.
