Lizard Lick is awesome! saved me a bunch of money on my car insurance...

I was really impressed with those guys...If anybody been keeping up with the past posts I done...you might remember that I ordered a WICO joystick from Mikesarcade.com and my dumb tail ruined a couple of the leaf switches to it when i was doing the wiring. Taking the advice from others here trying to salvage the mistakes i did ...it didn't work for me...they were beyond saving. Did some searching for replacements and come to find out...those switches are nearly impossible to find. (which adds to the reason of why i perfer microswitches over leaf switches...quantity! hahaha) The ones that i could find, they were overcharging ($2.95 a pop!). Well I was looking over the LizardLick website and i saw where they used to sell WICO china knockoffs but they have been out of stock for a LONG time...I sent an email to Chad Marley ( sales rep) and asked if they would ever get any more back in stock...He contacted me shortly and said he didnt think they would ever get those again...I told him my problem and low and behold he said that he had a bag of 6 switches and he said he would send them to me...FREE of charge...
BACK IN THE SADDLE AGAIN!...
I was so worried that i was going to end up having to jerryrig the metal control panel to be able to hold a different type of joystick...but now that worry is long gone...Now if I can just get rid of the Mr.Butterfingers nickname i'll be all set!...
This probley seems like spam...but I just had to vent out my happiness I am feeling over this...its nice to see that good people are still out and about in the world.
For the noobs out there...if you need parts/supplies etc for your mame/arcade cab/etc...I always make sure that I contact these vendors first...Chad from www.LizardLick.com and RandyT from www.groovygamegear.com (Cant help it....gota show the respect to Randy)

I've always got a good vibe off of LizardLick, so it's nice to hear stories like this.

Good experiences with both of them but have to also throw Andy into the mix as well. He may be across the pond but for Canadians in particular the shipping is the same as ordering from the US and in most cases arrives much faster. I've had stuff ordered from Andy arrive within two days.
garnerb350:
What site or who is Andy? I'd like to know more...(more clients)...

Another approval for LizardLick. Chad knows his stuff (or at least the stuff I asked about) and offers very good service and fast shipping from the USA to Canada.
