How long to wait before filing complaint?

[andypinboy]

  small world     So I take it these are just run of the mill problems with most dmd sellers including faulty leds & long delays getting back to customers (or no response whatsoever until aired on a forum)? Think I'll stick with colordmd in my games even if they do cost almost as much as a Stern topper.

Either a color DMD, or Mike Homepin is making his own LED dmd

But neither is viable if you want the smaller DE display or the larger Sega display

What do these guys sell that the others don't?

They make a DMD suitable for my new star trek 25th

Pete, what are they asking for this replacement Star Trek 25th display ?

I have 2 x Star Trek 25ths and the displays are perfect but I bought some spares 5 years ago from a seller in the USA and at the time they were cheap at around $200 Aussie each.
I think it was Jeff from PinballClassics who put me onto the replacements.

What are they asking now for one this Euro seller ?
Did no one in the USA have them at all ? Or were they much dearer ?
I thought multiple sellers would of had these by now but that's just an assumption.

Interested to know how u get along.

Finally got a reply
They were out of stock
Pity it did not say that on their website

I will wait another two weeks

Cool Pete - similar story to the pinside thread which was 1 year ago now. If you remember would you mind returning & letting us know how it goes?

You have 180 days with paypal.
They changed it many months ago.

I'm more likely to forget that I had ordered the displays in 6 months
:p

No chance of you returning & letting us know then    Isn't mike working on some led dmds? (or not a fit for ST 25th?)

the DE display I want is 128 x 16 dots
their is a large display that Sega used for a few games, if that gives out , there is no replacement available
the normal DMD is 128 x 32 dots


I have tried the 128 x 32 display that Xpin make
I put a red one in my Iron man,
I liked the color but due to the way they are built, there is a grid pattern visible in the display
(the display is made of 8 x 8 LED blocks)
but as I posted, the two displays I bought had dead dots straight out of the box

Ok Pete - so you don't like the grid pattern? That makes sense I guess espcly if so used to std dmd - almost looks like lines are out. I think you'd get used to it though - & I do like the idea of a diff colour to orange (even if still mono).

[Pop Bumper Pete]

colorDMD have done most of my DMD collection
just need the $$ to buy the displays

colorDMD > mono DMD anyday

[Caveoftreasures]

Pete, the large Sega style displays that suit games like Batman Fotever and Frankenstein etc are showing in stock at companies like Pinball Life for $475.

I know u are after the Star Trek 25th display, but I think in a earlier post you mentioned the largest DMD display for Segas was not avail ?

[Pop Bumper Pete]

At $475 they might as well be unavaliable

[Caveoftreasures]

Yeh they are not cheap but they do look great lit up on Batman Forever, Frankenstein etc etc. Only mentioned they were available in case someone was after one.

Hope your DMD arrives from Europe etc.

[Pop Bumper Pete]

well, I gave pinLED an extra two weeks, still no displays or notice that they have been sent

Let see what PayPal does
