    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.

    Be happy they take email orders now!

    They do have stuff no one else does, or the other people buy it from them. They millions of parts, and the website is essentially a web scan of the flyer they used to send out. Steve's gruff and way old school, and it's just the way he wants to do it. One time he yelled at me because I ordered "too much stuff" at once (it was >$500 only because I had to order 2x16 AN displays.... that was like $250 right there....)

    That said, lately my go to has been marco, just because of the quick and cheap shipping. Used to use PBL for a lot of stuff but the shipping cost spiked from them so not as often.
