I have two western models (the original mechanical tray was not released in the west), and have not had any issue. The gen 2 is one of the best looking systems ever made, imho. It’s built like a tank and the materials feel premium.
Angry Video Game Nerd, on Youtube, had a huge issue finding a working one and I don't think he ever did. He just kept ordering new ones and kept getting duds. Even took it to his friend that performs unusual repairs and the guy said they were all 100% broken. I believe you, though. Might have just been a problem with the resale market being flooded with all the broken ones.
