yeh, it is crazy.
But surely some of these bozo operators must understand that these high end machines like Scared Stiff are worth big bucks on Ebay with good playfields and stuff all with shit playfields.
They work hard to get a quick buck here and there, and then lose 3 or 4 grand by not doing a lousy service and a quick playfield clean. Dont make sense.
There should be a RSPC for pinballs, where the machine gets rescued, then given to a new owner who will love it and treat it good.
My hand is up.lol
