I don't mean to take business away from BG as I like the work he does and I've purchased from him but the only drawback to Steve is, the wait. You will have to be patient as it does take him time as he does this a second job.

An option would be to purchase from Shay as he has these in stock: http://shayarcadegroup.com/backglasses/

Just another option

Quoted from bluespin:

I would buy backglasses

Shay Arcade Group and Homestead all use silk screening just like the originals. Bgresto prints on a label and uses a process to adhere the label to the backglass. It’s a really nice result, but not as good as silk screen. I’d buy a new backglass from Shay, Homestead, Greatwichjohn or Cpr. If they don’t make a title that you want then I would order from Bgresto. This accomplishes two things; gets you your backglass quickly, and reduces the number of Bgresto backorders so that people that have to order from Bgresto, as he’s the only one that makes many titles, can get their glasses quicker.

Well said!

Quoted from scampcamp:

Are they as a good quality as bgresto's?

Just for reference .... this is a glass Steve (BGResto) did for me. http://bgresto.com/?p=1572 As stated above, Steve is great but would use him for the glasses that you can't find elsewhere. Almost all other places make runs of certain glasses and don't do one-offs.
