Starting its own thread since I don't want to taint this seller at all, not my goal. Game was advertised as Fully Shopped. When you sell a game what do you normally mean by that? For me, depending on how dirty the game was, I'd tear a lot of major chunks of the PF down and clean as needed. Replace any weird OP fixes that may still be on it, try to get as correct as I can on nuts and bolts. Sometimes its super obvious its the incorrect piece. I know guys like shanetastic and Black Rose post thier tag team shop jobs at times and they are incredible. Possibly over the top of what I'd expect in a game I bought as "fully Shopped", but a fantastic job nonetheless.
I guess I would want clean ramps with as least a bottom and top wipe down, star posts cleaned of gunk since this is super easy, an effort made on those tricky to get to plastics and the inside of the cab at least wiped down thoroughly. Not looking for restored, but at least clean. Also new rubbers, if needed, since they had game somewhat apart to clean it.
What do you expect in a game when you buy and it says "Fully shopped"?
Game below was "Fully shopped"
Every ramp was black and loads of dirt came off with a quick wipe down

Every piece of metal was highly rusted or oxidized (I get this may not be part of a shopping per say)

Every star post was filled with a boatload of wax

There was tons of dirt, grease, wax etc under things like ramps and back plastics. The inside of the cabinet was caked in mold, lots of lil fuzzy bits of it everywhere.
