Did anyone order this cart from Buy wrong?

I heard that some of them had problems. I hope that someone can elaborate for me.

I did get teh game from buyrite. I have not had a chance to play it yet since I am busy and for me to play I need to set aside hours of free time to play the game to really get into it and I'd rather not right now. Let me know what youv'e heard.

I heard that it has problems starting up, that some flakes chip off the connectors and go into the cart system also..

I believe Neo Lord was having some trouble with it...

I guess a good question is if he was the only one having problems or have you heard or others.

Also, one more thing, is the damage so serious that the game will eventually be unplayable

My KOF2K cart works just fine. My tv connector needed to be replaced and I got that from SNK themselves (Lucky I bought 2 at the time). Don't know why everyone's dissing Buy-rite. I received some Rockman X figures plus a plated Blues figures (The plated Proto Man rocks) yesterday with no problems. Actually they screwed me once but it was my own fault. I order MS 2 instead of MS 1 for the Neo CD.

Because despite your limited good experiences with them, they've screwed many, many others. I've never understood when people give it the 'ol "I know everyone else had trouble, but I ordered from them once and it went great. I think everyone's crazy." My suggestion is to keep giving them your business so they can lay into you really good.

I wouldn't call my good experiences limited. Most, if not all my import titles were purchased from Buy-Rite (And I own a lot of import titles). I didn't say they were reliable either; just implying that I must be a lucky SOB considering how many times I've read people saying that Buy-Rite sucks. By all means, if you guys can find a better place to get your stuff, go for it and drop me a link as I'll want to check it out myself. Shopping around is part of finding a bargain, no?

I've lost count how many times I've bought games from buyrite. I've only had 1 problem and it was both our faults. They charge a lot for shipping, but they also ship really fast and the prices are reasonable.

Hey Mike, I also bought a KoF 2000 from Buy Wrong for $200. I say Buy Wrong because I waited 1 extra week for my game and had it shipped with only a few wads of newspaper as protection despite paying them extra for faster and more secure shipping - those bastards. My KoF 2000 was in overall mint condition however, with only the registration card missing (I've heard that they don't come with one?!), and a few scuff marks on the case. It was fuzzy in sound and picture the first few times I put it in the system, but it's been working flawlessly ever since. KoF 2000 is an excellent game and for $200 (err um $250 <IMG SRC="smilies/rolleyes.gif" border="0"> ) is well worth it. I just don't want to deal with Buy Wrong again because they're shite and give unnecessary headaches. But if you want KoF 2000 it would be o.k. to get it from Buy Wrong. Just be on your toes and have plenty of Excedrin on hand <IMG SRC="smilies/loco.gif" border="0">

I really don't like buyrite, but...
A friend of mine (here from brazil) bought KOF2k from them and paid for EMS shipping.
It arrived nicely and safely @ his door <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

Good shape means:

Cart sticker is a self drawn on a "Post it Note"
Old style case with cracked plastic cart holder
Metal Slug 1 CD instruction manual included
Xerox copy of insert

I hate buy-rite. They definately have some bad ass phantom stock thats for sure!

I like to think of buying from Buyright as a form of Russian Roulette. You MIGHT get your games packed well and in a timely manner. Then again, much of the time they'll be packed loosely in a box too large so they can rattle around a bit.

Just hope you don't have any problems because their customer service skills need some serious work.

I'll NEVER buy from them.

Haha, yeah I almost bought from them once, I'm glad I chose to hold off because I later heard about their cruddy packaging & customer service skills (or lack therof).

I almost said, "Wow! It's Mike!", but after careful examination I've concluded, "Shucks, it's that ki_atsushi guy".
