Quoted from PinMonk:

Oh, Mirco does that, too. See: Mirco's atrocious 9 Ball offering (below). Wrong art in spots and completely missing words on the upper left side of the playfield. He had 1000 excuses for the atrocious 9 ball art. I fixed it in less than an hour just to show it's not difficulty but a lack of care that is the root issue.
I keep suggesting he release his prospective PF art to the community to check FOR FREE so this doesn't happen, but he won't do it because he seems to be irrational to a moronic degree. Not a great partner for JJP.

I was considering getting a NB pf from Micro but the price was prohibitive. Glad I didn't!

JJPs strategy is really brilliant;
1) Raise price $1000.
2) Remove warranty.
3) Add washers.
4) Refuse refunding deposits.
5) Leak rumor of "Buy Back" option which nobody will take.
6) Remain SILENT (this is the most important step).
7) Wait a few months and it all just fades away until their next pin.

OP
Quoted from PanzerFreak:

Damn, well there goes that theory that the issue has been resolved with the latest build games.

I'd guess that JJP already purchased enough SE/LE playfields to fulfill 3000+ orders. And if that's the case, any of them could have issues regardless of when the build is completed.

Quoted from meSz:

What if you were to use a longer T-nut? I know they make ones where the barrel is longer in length, just not sure it would be long enough. I believe the ones JJP uses are #8-32 and the barrel is 1/4" so if they make one that the barrel is 1/2"????? I guess the first question would be is .... is the hole also too big for the t-nut as well?

I would assume the hole is just about the exact size for the t-nut. In fact, that's why the hole is so large, to accommodate the t-nut. A longer t-nut seems like a good idea.

Interesting on the GnR owners thread how some are posting that the PFs are fixed or better now, and on the same page others are posting pics of pooling and artwork tearing under the JJP black washers.

Quoted from PinFever:

i am not buying the PF's are fixed part . That would mean their was actually a problem .. ha

I've heard from a reliable source that all GnR PFs have already been supplied to JJP, so not likely anything has been fixed.
