This is a rather lame question i'm afraid, but one of my MVS Cart's (Garou) is very rattly when I move it around, my other carts arent like this at all, and when I opened up the cart it wasnt damaged inside, just when I close it it sounds like the boards are really loose, does anyone sell spare green cases??

It'll be fine like that..well if it isn't insanely loose..How much can you move the pcbs around from the edge?
As long as they don't move enough to touch each other inside the case.

I have several loose/rattling carts..IMO it's normal..and they all work fine.

I actually like them to rattle slightly..I don't like the pcbs to be jammed into a case as I feel/have found warping because of that.
So I often modify the inner of the cases to create a small amount of rattle..
......

Don't know if yopu'll find a spare green case but a Black one may be possible..

This topic is almost seven years old, but it came up when I searched for "MVS cart rattle"... It puts me at ease that my rattling cart is also a Garou.

The rattling is normal, it's so the PCBs can adjust in the slot a little.
