They are pretty reliable, alot of times though you get color copies of the marquees, otherwise they are pretty reliable. I have purchased many MVS games from them.

I've dealt with MD games before. They are good to buy from IMO- on eBay, I've won their auctions for MVS carts of Blazing Star, Breakers, and Breakers Revenge, as well as a Taito Volfied JAMMA board. After receiving my payment, they shipped QUICK in each instance. I would deal with them again.

I have bought several MVS titles from them, and have never had a problem. Many times they do give copied marquees, but if you are buying from an auction, it usually states that. Of course, you can just ask them about that if you are interested.

Yeah! My first ebay auction was with this store for Metal Slug MVS cart that came with original mini plastic header plus dip setting sheet and the instruction sheet as well. The auction didn't even state that these were included. I was happy and all for only $60-65 US dollars.

Yep, they're pretty reliable. I've purchased 2 MVS carts from them, and both transactions went very smoothly. I got color copy marquees with both of my games.

I've done several transactions with MD also. Some were with eBay & others I just called in. Yeah, 95% of the time you'll get color copied marquees... I'm okay with that as long as I have something that still looks good to put in the slot. So far they've been very reliable & I get my games within a few days.

I found MD to be fast & very reliable. The only thing I do not like about them, is that they usually send you color copies of the mini marquees. I hate that.

I've noticed that MD has started to sell the genuine marquees separately on eBay, so they clearly have the real thing.

I guess I don't blame them for trying to get extra money by selling them separately, but if they're sitting on genunie marquees, it would seem better to include them with the carts and maybe set the starting auction price or reserve a few dollars higher.

Still, since MVS games generally don't come with the marquees, having a color copy of one is better than none at all. It doesn't make that much of a difference to me. ^_^

Yeah, they are very fast, and relaible. One negative experience: I got a Last Blade 1 from them. The game had so much white lines on it. I thought maybe I could take a look, so I opend it up. Wow. 1/2 of the chips had holes in the middle, and it said made in Singapore, or Hongkong (something like that). I wote them an e-mail, and they said that despite opening the cart, they would give me a replacement. I said no thanks, because I didn't want to go thru sending and paying shipping hassel. But it was a great offer nonethless. My other deals w/ them were very good.

They do send laminated marquees, but the cutting is not that professional--it shouldn't matter if it was placed on the MVS unit, but I am using the converter, and I am kind of collecting them so...Aslan, another MVS seller uses laminated marquees, but their cutting is better.

They are not very personal, and the woman who works there has a crummy additude, otherwise, the product and delivery is okay, they are not going to rip you off, but they act like arrogant pricks, atleast the chick did when I asked simple Q's about games they had in stock, TWICE.

The few times I dealt with them, I spoke with Mike. He was very personable, and even remembered that I had purchased something from him about two years ago that I totally forgot about. Anyway, once I bought Bust-A-Move Again from him and he sent the MVS box directly through the mail with postage, mailing label & Post Office markings on it. I called him up and said that I was buying the game because it was complete with box for collecting purposes. I said please ship the MVS box inside another box when shipping them. He laughed and sent me another box, which was pretty cool.

Have dealt a couple of times with MD and the games have been great and delivered fast overseas here to the UK. They did have copied marquees but this was clearly stated in the auction listing. I will certainly be using them again :-)

Not sure yet - to be honest I am not even sure what I have hence why my listings on e-bay are down a bit. Just moved recently and so much stuff still in boxes!!! Need to convert the loft into a "test centre" but seem to have filled it already with all manner of retro bits!! Hopefully I'll get back in full swing by the New Year. There is a AES KOF 94 on e-bay at the mo which is in nice nick and complete though.
