Okay kinda off topic, but I know that a lot of us deal with Mike for our MVS games.

Well I won an eBay auction three days ago and haven't heard back from him yet. Typically, i wouldn't be concerned since Mike is a stand-up guy and I've done a lot of business with him.

I called his phone # and it indicates that their is an illness in the family and it also appears that all of his eBay auctions have been pulled and/or ended (a good many were pulled)

Just wondering if anyone had any info? Hope everything is alright.

Ahhhh...that is awful new to hear <IMG SRC="smilies/crying.gif" border="0"> ....Mike is awesome...probably all the work he does to be such a great seller kinda got to him? Well I hope he is okay.....I know he is a top notch guy and it probably takes something serious to take him away from his job.......Neo aside....I hope he is okay....... <IMG SRC="smilies/frown.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/frown.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/frown.gif" border="0">

I wonder what happened. Besides buying MVS Carts from Mike, he helped me with some technical problems with my MVS Cab. Very nice guy.

Mike is easily the best arcade parts supplier I've had the pleasure of dealing with. He replaced a MVS cart for me that was lost in the mail without a second thought.

It's also extremely cool to call up a store on the phone and have them know who you are...you don't get that very often anymore.

Get Well Soon!

I sent him a "Get Well" to the AOL address and said that the forum was hoping he was better soon.

I received an email from him this morning. He's in the hospital due to complications from what he calls a minor surgical procedure that might keep him out of circulation for a couple of weeks. I told him not to worry about our transaction - I told him that we could close the deal after he's back on his feet again and to not worry about it.

This is sad. <IMG SRC="smilies/crying.gif" border="0">

Mike is one of the best I've dealt with. I've bought a Taito Volfied JAMMA board and some MVS carts from him as well. When I buy something from him, it arrives QUICK.

Get Well Soon, Mike!

Mike responded to the note I sent him earlier today. He was appreciative and said he would be back in the game soon.

So, that's why my Kizuna Encounter MVS hasn't arrived yet...Oh, well. At least it explains some things. Nice how everyone else seems to know this guy personally. I always write my money orders out to MDgamesales.

Yeah, I hope he gets better. I bought my first CPS2 game from him and it got to me in a flash. Great seller.
