I remember that I read a thread about mdgamesales somewhere, but can not find it. They sale real Neo Geo, right? Just want to make sure this. It seem they have much better price on MVS carts.

thx.

I personally have not dealt with them but they do have over 1,000 eBay feedback under "mdgamesales@aol.com."

I bought a League Bowling off them on eBay, and when it came in it did not have the link up ports. I emailed them back and asked to return it or swap it for one with the ports and they swapped it with no hassle.

I have gotten other carts from them with no problems at all.

Have never had a problem with them. It is nice because they have a phone # you can call on thier website. Always friendly and helpful. Prices are fair for most things.

I've sent three emails to this guy, and left two messages on his machine... NEVER does he get back to me. I really WANT to buy from him, but not if he doesn't return my mail/calls. Sheesh. :mad:

I have bought Metal Slug 1, 2, and 3, Samurai Shodown 2, Sengoku, Pulstar, Blazing Star, MotW, LB2, and KOF 98 off of them. The only problem I had in any of those transactions was that Metal Slug 3 was sold as new and came without a Marquee in the box. I emailed them and a brand new marquee was at my door the next day. Trust these guys. They've never screwed me over.

MD is a great seller but just be aware that most of their MVS carts are Japanese import . And they always include a color copy of the mini marquee . :D

I really thank to all of you guys. These are what I am looking for. I will go with MD. The cart is "MOTW". I just found out my old cart was a bootleg. I am not 100% sure, I found the center two pins are not together. Is this the only easy way to tell if cart is bootleg? There is no serial # either. Seller gave me posters, move list, and marquee. So that I didn't pay lots of attention of the pin. I decided to ask my money back and get a real one. MD's price is pretty good. Will get it on Sunday.

Mike's a great MVS seller. I've bought many carts from him, including a couple of new kits. Mostly, he has loose carts from Japan though.

I don't know how true the hole "Pin" thing is. I have a Samurai Showdown in a clear case. The board says SNK, the chip is stamped with SNK. It has a serial # and came out of a MVS machine in the arcade. It has two center pins?

The only thing to look out for is that the MVS cart I got had the original sticker on it but the name of the game was written in English on the game with a pen.

I'm sure it was just for them to be better able to keep track of their stock, and I could care less about what they write on MVS, I'm not collecting, thats why it's MVS.

Great seller, can be trusted.

I have dealt with them many times, and have had pretty good luck you have to leave a message and they call you back usually. I don't think they know anything about this board, I tried to explain the phantom to them onetime and I don't think they got it. I have ordered on ebay and just called them up, they have been prompt both times.

I bought MOTW, it has two center pins, plus, no serial #. I didn't open the case, so I can not tell if it's printed SNK label on the board. Maybe I am wrong. Does your Motw has two pins or one pin?
I checked my other MVS carts, Magic drop 3, MS 1,2,3, Stricker 1945, Shock troopers, KOF98, etc... they all have only one center pin. Except Bust A move, has two pins.

This just goes to show you that just because it has two pins doesn't mean it is bootleg.

I mean, who would actually bootleg Bust A Move?

Over the last three years I have bought many, many games from Mike at MD. Always good service, always quick delivery. I tell him I never want to see a bootleg, and he has never sent me one! Quality merchandise. The only gripe I can say is that he hardly ever includes the original artwork/marquees. I really don't care, since he does include a color copy, and usually his prices are excellent.... but if you are a collector, this may unsweeten the deal for you. Over all, MD is one of the best places to buy Neo Geo, and is highly recommended.

hahaha that was a joke right? Bust A Move is one of the most bootleged games on Neo Geo... Thanks to the popularity and its demand, there were tons and tons of bootlegs in its day....

Funny I noticed this thread. I just got off the phone with BonusKun this evening talking about MVS aquisitions and he mentioned MD. He orders from them all the time and says he loves 'em. Just make sure to be specific if you don't want a bootleg or conversion cart. Once I get my MVS cab, I'm probably gonna order 20 carts from them. The prices are said to be good... :cool:

I opened up my Bust A Move case, and found SNK is printed on the board, also the date is there as well. So I guess mine is real.
