    My Williams IJ is a re-import that was my first pin back in '98. Had no clue that it was a re-import for years until I got further deeper into the hobby. But it was and still is beautiful. I guess some folks have their preferences. Condition is always king though.

    Quoted from jokerpoker:

    Worst thing is when batteries go flat. Then it resets to default and all of a sudden I had Italian language Who Dunnit and had to ask a mate how many presses on the service buttons to get to language settings so I could get it back to English. Rooky mistake but funny none the less.

    This is how I learned French from my IJ.

    Quoted from LTG:

    One thing for sure. That re-import got 2 ocean cruises. More than most people here get.

    I had one and came back home with norovirus.

    Quoted from ForceFlow:

    You can change that with the appropriate jumpers on WPC-89 MPUs and dip switches on WPC-S & WPC-95 MPUs

    My wife likes it when I now talk French to her!

    I'm sorry. I hope you are better now.

    Back in 2012. All good now but it wasn't a pleasant short term experience.
