Quoted from d0n:How do you find anything on that crazy site? "Game specific parts" link shows maybe 10 older games? You can't order or buy anything on the site and you can't easily find anything. What's the site for?
It's 2020. We're moving towards a cashless, online buying experience yet they still want customers to send a check or pay COD? Does the post office even do COD anymore? COD?! Has any online business even offered COD in the last 20 years?
I want to buy parts but damn, that's a lot of hoops to jump through.
Quoted from Pahuffman:I gave up on it years ago. It's so damn difficult to order parts that I just call friends who already have an account and ask them to order stuff. Literally the last place I look for anything.
Hope you enjoy that huge Marco Markup for all the stuff he buys from PBR and just resells for newbs who are too lazy or timid to call or send an email.
You absolutely pay through the nose for that slick website and easy to navigate UI.
Steve is the man and you get so much shit for CHEAP. The prices are insanely low. I can’t imagine how he does it.
Also I happened to order on the same day exactly a year apart and calculated that Steve receives about 10 THOUSAND orders per year, so I think you’re the minority here.
Sure it’s a pain in the ass to make a list of shit you want and then find the part numbers, but you do your work, and you’re rewarded with cheap prices by quite literally the only person left on earth who actually MAKES most the parts.
Remember that Steve actually bought the Gottlieb factory and moved everything to NY so that’s how he makes all the original stuff you need and why he STILL has NOS things after almost 30 years.
