    Quoted from Mitch:

    And they have shit quality, clear pooling, warped playfields, coilstops that dont last 200 plays, terrible code release, cabs splitting, terrible power switch location, shitty node boards ect

    You have 41 pinball matches currently. Never owned a Stern. Not sure you are speaking from experience.

    Quoted from wrb1977:

    They already are selling over 25,000 pins annually.

    That is beyond their production capacity.

    Quoted from wrb1977:

    Not anymore.

    Stern is open 260 days per year. You are saying they are churning out 100 games per day? That’s double what Stern has said they are making.

    Quoted from wrb1977:

    Interesting...you dismiss and accurate number that I’ve provided with a “guess” from yourself.

    50 isn’t a guess. Stern has told me and others that’s the average day output during the factory tours.

    Quoted from Lermods:

    People complain about high prices, but I think stern actually helps keep prices lower than they otherwise would, including the secondary market. The pro sets the bar for pricing. They also have really helped spread the pinball word in many ways. Hard to imagine what the pinball world would be like without them.

    Would we have Wonka Standard @ $7500 without Stern? Also, it is worth mentioning that having new, reliable games in the $5k range makes location pinball much more realistic. I would never say that Stern games don't have issues; I have experienced many personally. But as others have said, the support is very good. I would put a Stern Pro up against JJP, CGC or Spooky any day to have more location up time.
