I haven't actually bought any Neo stuff from buyrite, although I have purchased many import PSX, and DC games through them. They have pretty good prices most of the time, but you do pay a lot for shipping and they usually don't ship it to securely. They also have horrid customer service, which is definetly a no-no. So in my opinion of what you want can be obtained elsewhere, don't buy from buyrite.

Lets just say they DO NOT pack there home carts well at all. If your package is damaged during shipping, they WILL NOT replace it unless it doesn't work properly. If you order CD's, then that is good. Just don't order any home carts. I ordered a ST2 a long time ago and it was packed in a box with no bubble wrap, pocorn, no nothing. It was literally bouncing around in the box. I was ready to kill Buy Rite. Never again....

Buy-Rite used to sell on Ebay before they got banned for allegedly posting illegal advertising and links to their website. Now they are on Yahoo Auctions and selling there. Beware. FYI, their reserves are ridiculously high and like LA said, they pack carts like crap.

True...
I don't like Buyrite that much but sometimes I got good deals from them.....
DC Eternal Arcadia limited edition is a good example

Buy rite sux. They take too long and dont tell u if they are out of a certain game(even if youalready payed!!) They dont pack things right and they hardly update their site. So if u want something done with them, u HAVE to call them cuz emails take a long time, too! <IMG SRC="smilies/mad2.gif" border="0">
Oh boy... Buy rite. An odd place. First, they have some ok prices and some really fucking high ones to! MS3 for $500!? Cart system with 1 controller, no box or manual plus KOF 2000 for $800!!!??? Also they are wicked slow. I asked them about a CD system and 4 months after I got my CD system (not from them) they replied. I use them as a last resort cart supplier. If I cant get MS3 from anywhere else... I'll have to eventually spend $500 on it there... hmm... to bad. Dont depend on them. Shipping is expensive. <IMG SRC="smilies/envy.gif" border="0">

buyrite.net sucks ass. Everything is overpriced and shipping costs too much. And as stated by everyone else, their packing sucks ass too. No bubble wrap, popcorn, styrofoam or anythig. They never update their site, service sucks, and they lie about their price matching policy. If you're looking for carts, buy them from www.cart-mart.com; they have KOF 2K for $200 w/ free shipping, or buy them from people here on the forums. <IMG SRC="smilies/glee.gif" border="0">

as everyone else has said buy rite sucks <IMG SRC="smilies/mad2.gif" border="0">
I'm the minority here, but my cartridges have always shipped in good packaging. I never had any real complaints with BuyRite. The owner can be a difficult person to deal with at times, but their service is decent based on my experience with them.

I have never had a problem with them. I have never bought any neo syuff from them, just playstation, and dreamcast. They somtimes have good prices. I got a brand new factory sealed import of rival schools 2 for playstation, for $20. But the emails do take a LONG time to get back. But i have never had a problem with them.

I haven't any trouble from them. However, their customer service is horrible.

I ordered four Neo cart games from them and each one they had NO bubble wrap or anything , just like Lord Akidadus said. I can rattle off horror stories I have had from them but I just posted them only a few weeks ago in another buyrite thread. I HATE BUYRITE!! <IMG SRC="smilies/mad.gif" border="0">

Until the consumer is willing to shop around and find the BEST price,SLIME-RITE will charge what the market will bear. It appears that SLIME-RITE is the only place that quite a few consumers believe is the ONLY place to make their gaming purchases. I find it strange that there is a uniformed officer in the video gaming store on a regular basis. Too many irate consumers? or too many kids playing the video games past five minutes?

I only buy from buyrite if I can't find the item ANYWHERE else, this has only happened a few times.
Buyrite packs all their stuff piss poor, if you order a game, homecart ect. expect to just have it thrown in a priority mail box with NO padding what so ever.
Also since buyrite makes you order online, theres no telling when they'll accually ship your order, it could be the next day, or it could be 4 days from when you order it, probly depends on how lazy the guys that work there are. With that being said always get ground shipping from them, overnight or 2nd day is a waste.
You will get your stuff from buyrite, since I have never been ripped off by them, but their not the best bussiness to order from, it's like 10 year old kids are running their shop.
