Addams Family, The
Bally, 1992If you live in Canada and you are waiting in line for a reproduction playfield from CPR, will the current or potentially worse CDN dollar value cause you to second think or let the purchase slide ?
I've heard that the exchange might slide to .60ish within the next year - yikes !
Gotta sell some extra / unneeded toys to prepare I guess . . .
It's too bad they didn't get the playfield made in the timely manner they were projecting (back when the CDN dollar was stronger). The quoted 4 months has turned into 14 already. But if there's anything I've learned since joining pinside, that's pinball! 
I agree, but don't get me wrong I don't have anything negative to say about CPR - it is what it is . . .
. . . as long as it's still worth what I pay for it ( if the CDN ever goes back to par ).
Will this playfield go up in value after time ?
Quoted from PinZig:It's too bad they didn't get the playfield made in the timely manner they were projecting (back when the CDN dollar was stronger). The quoted 4 months has turned into 14 already. But if there's anything I've learned since joining pinside, that's pinball!
They did sell out fast, and CPR closed down the leftover list pretty quickly. I'm just glad I got in when I did.
Value (beauty) is in the eye of the beholder. To me it's a chance to increase the beauty of my TAF where it's slated to end up. It's a permanent part of the lineup, so I guess I can wait.
Kudos to CPR for giving us the opportunity. Now let's get that line rolling!
still waiting on inserts, I can wait a long time !

I saw that thread a while ago with your NOS TAF 'field, VERY great scoop on that, love those NOS parts whether it's 60's Camaros or great pins !
Quoted from pingod:I have one coming as well,but I am restoring mine already with a NOS populated play field now.
I guess it will go in the closet with the TOTAN play field.
Sure is a long wait,not nearly as long for TAF I hope.
