Sorry to hear about that on your first pinball. I'm looking at getting my first pin very soon and thought I'd be buying it from a melb dealer until I read a few posts here.
Yeah well I am still negotiating with them regarding misleading advertising so not going to name, post pictures or details until that is over and if they don't meet their legal obligations to refund when deceptive practices have been used, forcing me to go to VCAT, then it is open season..
My advice either get someone who knows pinball to check it over for you, or buy from a reputable person on a forum like this..
Once you have one or two or three LOL, you VERY quickly learn what you are looking for and when sellers are being dishonest...
Thanks everyone for the welcome...
