    Quoted from markmon:

    Lol. It's just the mentality. When I buy a game nib or used, it goes into my workshop not my house. There it gets cleaned and waxed (even if nib), play tested and tweaked as needed. Once perfect, it goes into the house. I've had to regap / align flippers, tighten screws, fix minor flow issues, all on nib games. It's just part of the experience.
    I guess there are those that get the game and spend a few minutes or hours fixing it and are enjoying the game right away. Then there are others that get the game and spend days/weeks refusing to fix the game "because they paid so much stern should do it" and instead of enjoying their purchase they spend days / weeks in the forum crying. I guess it's clear which you are.

    Have you ever been shipped a game, then had to either re-clear a PF, or do a full playfield swap? 20-40 hours worth of work on a NIB is BS. Anybody should be able to do that math.

    Even if I was retired and rich I would say full stop to that as a solution and chargeback my game and drop it off at the distro I bought if from. And I consider myself a reasonably reasonable guy.

    The SW pro I play most regularly appears two have two large insert focused node boards out in the middle of the play field.

    Not sure if they are fixable but definitely a downgrade vs losing a lamp or two when they burn out.
