--- Quote ---I have yet to get any good vibes from you Tunarcades.  From I read in the forums and your comments, it is you I would avoid to buy from.  Perhaps a positive change in attitude will bear you some fruit, in this highly competitive marketplace.  In fairness I would say Gremlin's prices are excellent for the commercial consumer, but you need to make a profit at the end of the day.  I bet even you want to make money for your efforts.

I'm not seeking anyone's approval here and if you don't want to buy from me you don't have to, but you are very much mistaken if you think I'm scrapping for business. At the end of the day I don't sell individual parts and components and my comments were expressed in a non-commercial sense (I did say when I tried them the parts were for personal projects and I just didn't like them). If I really wanted to criticise a direct competitor I wouldn't have anyone to target anyway cos I don't know of any small operations like mine in the UK aiming at the same demographic, and none of our customers in the last 3 years have been BYOAC members anyway. Just cos I run a business, I've still got a mind of my own and my own personal opinions.

If we're being honest, I think your attitude needs to change. You've had a chip on your shoulder ever since you found out I am doing well out of a venture you failed to make profitable yourself. Don't hate, appreciate.  :D

If I find a problem with a product I've had experience with, I'm going to express it the same way everyone else does here. If I like a product/service I'll say so too (I never criticise other small vendors on here selling quality parts and panels, or the fantastic Andy Warne for their product line) Likewise, if I can offer advice to someone in need of assistance, I'm going to let them know as I'm much more of an enthusiast than a businessman.

Not used them  myself but if a bat top is your thing the U360's get a lot of positive feedback. I believe that they also support pushbuttons directly. Im a fan of sanwa balltops myself. Just cant get comfortable playing with a bat. My £0.02

My advice would be to buy a blank control panel from mameroom.com for $99. Then slowly buy the parts (maybe a little each month) until it's done. Then you'll have at least a functioning control panel. After that, look for an old arcade cabinet around you and go from there.
