So... recently'ish I traded my halo b to a user on this forum who will remain unnamed for his reloader b. We decided to ship at the same time, even though he didn't actually ship until a day or two after he had received mine. Anyway, I get the reloader, but I didn't have any batteries and wasn't planning to play for a while, so I figured I'd just let it sit until I get some batteries and maybe go test fire in my backyard or something... And wouldn't you know it, the thing's busted. I put some batteries in and it just turned on. I held down the button, and the lights flashed red or whatever, indicating that it is off, but it just kept running. I stuck my finger in to see if it would stop and it didn't, it pulsed a couple times definitely with enough force to break a ball and then the lights went nuts indicating there was a jam.
that's the back story....
So, now, I'm pretty sad... I don't have any other loader, so I need to get this thing going eventually. I don't know if you would exactly call it communicating, but I've been somewhat in touch with the other party. At first he seemed very opposed to doing anything at all, and then he seemed to be willing to replace the board.. and now he hasn't responded to my pm's. Anyway, I have a few questions for the AO populace. Is it possible to do something warrenty-wise about this, even though I don't have a warrenty card or anything (in other words, is there a place I can contact about getting this fixed for free)? If not, where can I buy a replacement board and how much do they cost, on average?
now, after that incredibly and increasingly lengthy post, I think I'll retire to watching episodes of Batman: the animated series on DVD and eating plain cheerios (for cholesterol). Thanks to all for any input.
PEACE
