Quoted from Vespula:You're rallying against the vast majority of us who are patiently waiting impatiently for their game to ship or the ones who have already received it and are enjoying playing it .. I don't bet you can find anybody who is feeling stuck with a non refundable early deposit... The only thing they're Stuck with is making a profit if they choose to sell it.
I have a friend who after seeing my playfield falling apart that is ready to walk away and lose a $1000 rather than deal with the head aches of owning this pin. I bet he's not the only one. With 5000 being produced I doubt there will be any profits to be made once the majority of these machines are out there with problem playfields.
