Quoted from zacaj:

Also, with the original all the holes on the bottom will be in the right places!

This is probably key.

When restoring and using the playfield that came in your game, you know that everything will fit correctly by using the original holes. With a reproduction, positions can be off slightly, dimples can be missing, issues with size/placement of shooter lane or trough cuts, etc. You will have to do a lot of test fitting and comparisons to your original playfield.

Quoted from indypinhead:

I've yet to buy a PF from CPR at that price.
$599 must have been a few years ago,

Their bronze-grade playfields can be had for that much.
