I've got a contact in the UK who is making repros for a lot of cabs. Because of international shipping, they're not exactly cheap, but they look like new and work very well! I've got his marquees on a couple of my cabs and will be buying a few more shortly.
Does anyone want any reproduction marquees? I'd be more than happy to let anyone in on a group buy of these who is interested (though i hope this doesn't get TOO crazy)
There should be a list of what's currently available here: http://forum.arcadeotaku.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=7179
Here's a list of the marquees that've been requested so far:
Sammybean - paid Franco already
Supasaru: American Atomiswave ???
Adderall: Mini-Cute
l2yan00: Naomi Uni ???
grandmascrack: Astro
FLTCHRR: Astro
NOAH: Q25 (when completed)
ElectricGrave: Astro, Q25, EII (x2?)
JazzyNYC:
Orpheus:
People who need multiples:

LMK if you need anything, and we can split up shipping costs so everyone involved saves. Basically, here's what costs will be:
=Cost of marquee (Most marquees run about 30-40 euros)
+cost of domestic shipping (and any packaging costs, if i have to go out and buy extra packing materials to package all of these)
+fraction of international shipping (based on number/weight of marquees purchased)
I think based on number of marquees ordered, how complicated the marquees are, etc. you could be looking at anywhere from 40 euros (around $55) to around $75 plus another $10 or so for domestic shipping, for each marquee, roughly. That number may vary based on exchange rates, number of marquees purchased, Where you are in the US, and other factors.
IF YOU ARE GETTING IN ON THIS, YOU MUST MUST MUST PAY UP-FRONT. I'm hoping we'll all be able to save some money on this, but I won't do that at the cost of buying someone else marquees or getting stuck with extras or anything like that.
Franco and I have yet to decide whether payment will be sent to me in full and the cost of marquee plus a share of shipping forwarded to him, or whether you will pay him for the marquee + a portion of int'l shipping and pay me separately for domestic shipping. Any profound thoughts on how to best handle this?
The one time I did this before, both the other buyer and I benefitted. I would think with a larger group buy there would be good savings.
Thanks
