Quoted from vid1900:

I like my salad tossed.

I'm finally fed up with Stern's delays. Cancelled my order for SMVE. Prepaid in early May thinking the games were in stock or would be shortly. Not the case. Then I get the word no production until August. Called my distributor a few days ago and he said no production until October. F that.... I'm out. My distributor understood and sent a refund. It doesn't help that Stern doesn't return emails or voice mails either. Maybe I'll just take the money and buy a new motorcycle instead...

Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:

Unless you really want a motorcycle, in which case, why were you looking at pinball machines?

If you own pinball machines... you always are looking for more/other pinball machines. If you own motorcycles... you are always looking for more/other motorcycles.

I guess I'm just pissed at Stern for taking the fun out of this purchase for me. I played the SMVE at MGC and absolutely loved it, sold a few games to get the cash for one, ordered and paid for one and then I'm told over and over just wait. Wait 6 months and then what... maybe wait some more? Lesson learned.

I still think it's a great game, but Stern needs to know that when they pull crap like this they will lose sales. I'm pissed so no sale.

Will I pick one up in the future? Maybe. Will a different pin pop up instead. Possibly. Could I blow the pin fund on a another cycle? Who knows.

You may well have dodged a bullet with the current playfield issues.

That came to mind as well. Good thinking...
