Sometimes you are like a pitiful with a toy Cavey, you just won't let it go. Don't feel you have to defend everything all the time. It gets old very, VERY quickly! Breathe in, breathe out.  
I like that people have views, I l want by BIG JUICY and am more than a little ticked that some items have been canned. But, hey, what ya gonna do?
IT'S ONLY PINBALL!  

I had two Pitbulls a few years ago. Brother and sister. They used to fight a lot so I had to move them on to someone who knew the breed better than I did.
Maybe one was Pro Stern and one was anti- Stern. Lol
It gets old very quickly for us Stern fans also always seeing people rubbishing Stern.
A lot of Stern owners don't even post about their brand new in box days anymore cause they don't feel comfortable anymore. These days, a lot of us who do buy Sterns just PM each other and share photos and stories that way.
It's only pinball.

I am glad u are buying a Whoa Nellie. It does look amazing.
Anyway, I am off for a holiday and to visit some fellow pinheads on a road trip. Keep flipping.
