Quoted from ausretrogamer:

Thanks for that - good to know. All I got was a reply saying I got one and an email to follow. Between a heap of PF orders and GTF orders, I reckon they would be snowed under matching deposits to people to then send email confirmations with acknowledgement of deposit and balance required etc.

Quoted from Pinballer73:

Yes definitely. I received a confirmation email of my PFLE order 2 days ago. Possibly one of the earliest to get my order in, or Wayne is working through them alphabetically. Either way I'm sure you'll receive your confirmation soon.
It would be a very time consuming task with the amount of orders received, cross reference payments & emails, then producing invoices & replying.

Quoted from metal-mods:

Opinion after playing at TPF:
Pros: Meh....
Cons: Meh....
Conclusion: If you're going to dump 9k on a single level old school Bally-type game, buy Fathom from Haggis, or a restored old school Bally-type game.
Disclaimer: Meh...

Meh

Quoted from prl867:

I ordered an SE when it first became available through Joe at PinballStar.
Any educated guesses when (ballpark) it might ship?

Quoted from kermit24:

Beginning Fall 2023.

Quoted from prl867:

Really?!? Wow. Awesome. I thought for sure LE’s would ship first.
Thank you!

Quoted from ausretrogamer:

Any Aussie PF LE buyers receive their 'confirmation' email from the Aus distro?

Quoted from allsportdvd:

Depends on what you call a conformation email
I have a reply to my question of “can you confirm my deposit has been received and my spot locked in?”
I got a one word reply “confirmed!”
I assume that’s good enough

Quoted from ausretrogamer:

Haha, got that email last week too. But Wayne sent out the formal confirmation with tax invoice today (to me).

Quoted from monitorpop:

Not the first (or likely last) to meh PF after missing out on an LE, with hopes of freeing up a spot for yourself. I feel your pain as I'm also bummed I missed out on an LE…

Quoted from BMore-Pinball:Aren't the games exactly the same except for the topper and some trim pieces?
I really love me some cool toppers, but at the end of the day it's really what's under the glass that matters once you get it home

Quoted from PtownPin:

Sure ... u think CGC will deliver many (not all) LE's by November .... define many and shoot me a PM

Quoted from Lateralus:

Is it too much to ask for an official comment on what will be in production first? We've pinged CGC, but they never respond in here to begin with; so, that's a waste of time.
Can someone that is somewhat on the internal team that has a better line of communication possibly try to get us some basic information such as that for the customers? Please, and thank you?
It is kind of an important detail and would help all of us predict the situation financially (among many other reasons), and isn't too much to ask when purchasing such an expensive item. Usually whenever a customer buys something, they are told an ETA on when the product should arrive.
I don't know, maybe I'm just very unreasonable.

You know it’s desperate times when there is a post about how entertaining your posts are…

Quoted from cookpins:

Whats the future value predictions, compared to say, CCR. LE instantly up/hold, SE instantly go down? I haven't followed CCR too much, but know I've seen some SE's selling at $1k discount, so this is probably an obvious, yes. I think that's my only regret on not trying for the LE, getting it to keep the topper in the box for resale. Not that I plan to resell, this will be one of the last in the collection to go.
If we compare to MBr and MMr however, which are no longer produced, the SE/Classic editions have held value or slightly increased. Was that the case when they were running them? How did CGC run those? Limited amount, or limited amount of time? If time, what determines when that time ends, when the next game is up and the line is needed? Seems that with CGC, once a game is off the line it's off the line, unlike Stern who rotates their line to continue selling as long as there is demand.

Quoted from jackd104:

I’ve been trying for 5 minutes to come up with something snarky to say about keeping a topper in a box to resell it, but I got nothin’.

Quoted from vikeking27:

SE’s will get their value back down the road - you could get AFMr and MBr at about the same discount while they were still in production and for a while after. I expect CCr SE to follow suit once production concludes.

Quoted from iceman44:

Got my Cactus LE finally after 17 months of fully paid. And zero communication.
You will get this PF whenever you get it and like it.
Communication? You have to pay extra for that

Quoted from Beechwood:

Figure the backwards deflation of the price after 17 months, WIN!
