Hi, new owner here. I was wondering if anyone had a good way to get a hold of Ingo? I ordered an LED clock from him about a month ago, and after ordering was informed it would be 2 or 3 weeks before it would ship. No problem, but now it's been 4 weeks, and I still don't have a replacement clock board or any notification of shipping. I the emailed the website address, and I also PM'ed Ingo on Pinside, about 3 days ago, and so far no contact.

I'm just hoping for a shipping update. After I put my TZ on location, the clock started acting up. Even though there are drilled holes in the clock housing, I think it still probably gets too hot inside. The clock works properly most of the time, but once in a while an opto won't register, and then I get a clock error and credit dot.

Not a huge deal, but would be nice to get the LED clock I ordered.

Quoted from DuffysArcade:

I live here in Germany and I'm in the same boat.
I originally ordered on 15 September, waited 5 weeks and nothing, so I emailed them. They emailed back that they had the parts and were slowly getting the soldering started. That was back on 25 October.
I sent a follow up message to them about 2 weeks ago and I've heard no reply. They are probably inundated with orders and messages from inpatient TZ owners.

Quoted from noitbe1:

Same. I tried to email several times for an order. I have been refunded once and never had any answer from my messages. Seems really strange. Are they still active ? The website is still there…

Quoted from DuffysArcade:

This was the last response I received on 25 Oct 2021. I have heard nothing since.

Hello, thank you for your order. We have had problems with parts for a long time, but they have arrived and we are slowly starting to solder. We'll get your board on Monday.

So I guess I'm not the only one then! I wonder if I should just cancel my order? I want the board, but at this point I'm not sure if I'll actually receive it.

Are there any other good replacements out there?

Quoted from bakerhillpins:

I mentioned this earlier but I'm waiting too. Mid August order for 2 boards. I'm just waiting it out and hoping for the best. My TZ has been down since then as I used my parts to fix someone else's game thinking the wait wouldn't be horrendous. If they are working on them I hope that they are handling orders based upon reception date.

Well, I guess I'll wait a bit longer for Ingo's board then. It really does sound like it's the best replacement option. If Ingo and crew really are working on them currently, then theoretically it shouldn't be too long before clocks start shipping again. Worst case, I have until April to request a refund through PayPal.

A quick update, that would take all of 2 minutes of their time, would be nice, and it would also be nice it they'd stop taking new orders of clock boards until they catch up. But I suppose beggars can't be choosers when it comes to getting replacement parts for these old games, and we just have to appreciate that new boards are being made at all.
