[Pioneer]

That is a great shame Steve.

I have never seen one of those magnet tabs break. It is a new design of clip, different to the normal one you see in a Pioneer chassis. They are supposed to be much stronger than the previous type.

What I did notice is that if you take the magnet out and then try and get it back in again, it's the devils own job not to have it snapping up against the motor.

Are you going to use the model with without the magnet?

I will always replace any part that fails under normal play and offer full warranty on every model made at my place so getting you a replacement chassis is not a problem. I'm happy to send you a replacement without a magnet or a chassis that has a new magnet pre-fitted. Let me know your address through a PM and I will arrange it.

I'm please that, apart from this, you are pleased with the new model.
