Vendors I avoid at all costs and why:
Arcadeshop - The owner has lied to me more than once.
Artwork Doctor - The owner is a liar and he produces god awful product.
I will go on record as saying the Arcadeshop does sell quality product... but I refuse to buy (been about 2 years now) because I don't take to kindly to being lied to... that is my only beef with them.

Joe produces TERRIBLE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE product. AVOID.
He's been booted off ebay so now he goes by something else.
Dudes name is Joe Pastucci or something similar... absolutely the worst quality ink-jet printed product I have ever ordered. He claims he backs his product 100%... HA! I had to charge back my credit card on the purchase because he refused to send me a re-print. I ended up giving the crap he printed away for free and it was so bad the guy who got it for free decided not to use it.

ya.. thats the name listed under artwork doctor on the shipment. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260601152735&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT was the auction I bought.
I guess I won't judge until I get it.. He did take a best offer of $20 off asking price and he shipped pretty quick... Maybe ill order a backup overlay just in case. hopefully it doesnt look too horrible

Wow thanks guys!
Its definately a buyer beware out there for this stuff ;)
Its cool you guys are all on first name basis with everyone that speaks volumes.
Good news with Happ I finally got ahold of someone and took the advice from here and canceled everything. They were not going to ship anything until next month ... I had no idea, they never let me in on that detail.
I gave Divemaster aka Arcade Emulator (http://arcadeemulator.net/) a shout about a bezel and got a response back in lightning time...I will be definately ordering from there thank you for the link!
After some digging around here, I found out that GGG is coming out with Novagems 2...they look freaking hot!!
And with real leafs! WOW! I dont know if I could ever handle the *click* *click* *click* of the cherry/sanwa switches, I remember the soft button presses back then not a clicky click button.
I wonder what the difference is like with the true leafs versus the lever Micro Leaf switches.
Anyway I will have to wait for those to hit his site. You can check what I found here: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=101030.40
So far Ultimarc (http://www.ultimarc.com) has been phenomenal! I recieved my u360 like extremely fast, love that Joystick! I will be ordering another one as well as the utrack and ipac2.
I think it needs a restrictor plate either square or octagon, Im new to all this so dont know what each would feel like.
Bezels seem like a pain to get in from anywhere, I really like the look of the Happ one.
Im wondering if I could create a bezel like it with some scrap poplar?
