Quoted from snakesnsparklers:

I wish people would stop buying from Mirco, unfortunately they are the only option for some games at the moment so it's Mirco shit or nothing.
I can't wait for Buthamburg's new shop to get up and running! It may be the greatest playfield production facility in the world when they're done, and they have a keen eye on quality and will reject parts with even smaller defects than what Mirco puts out.

I’ve purchased 2 playfields in my life. First one was T2 from Buthamburg, and the other was Space Invaders from CPR. T2 was totally superior across the board, just looks so much better as it’s screen printed. The SI is fine, still waiting for it to cure, but you can definitely see the scan lines of the printing process when you look at light reflections in just the right way.

I guess I’m saying this because I didn’t know about Buthamburg building a new facility and I look forward to figure offerings by them.

Quoted from bakerhillpins:

Yea, well I'll wait and see. The T2 cab decals have several errors that are obvious and have kept me from buying.
Lets not oversimplify this stuff. There's a lot of work to get correct reproductions.

What we the errors on the cab decals? I have some downstairs, but decided not to even put them on after my extensive (first time) playfield swap.

When I posted that I pulled images directly from their site. I have no idea if they've since fixed these issues. I'd be in for a set if they have.

I’ll take some pics of the ones I have if you wanna see them. I didn’t notice anything, but also didn’t look too hard, I guess

Quoted from ViperTim:

Plus it’s also feeding a crook and letting him stay in business.

I’m curious about more info on this. Is he scamming people? Are people not getting what they agree to? Is his work not up to what it should be?

Quoted from Haymaker:

If talking about Mirco, then yes, he sucks. If talking about Kruzman, then no, he is legit.

Yes, I should’ve clarified. I was asking about Kruzman, thank you. I’m in the middle of buying a playfield from him and started mildly freaking out trying to find other bad things people were saying and was having a very hard time doing so. Thank you for saying this, really. I started to doubt him and for no real reason at all, he’s been fantastic to deal with this whole time.

#765 1 year ago
Quoted from Rum-Z:

Yeah, Kruzman is 100% legit. He's done 2 playfields for me that turned out great, and I've been to his place multiple times. He's a good guy and an asset to our community.

I’m so glad you all are saying this. Like I said, he d given me zero reason to doubt him at all, and has been super nice and fun to deal with. Then that one little message on this thread that I didn’t clarify my question on started slowly eating away at my brain thinking “these people have all had shit experiences with him as well as Mirco”

Quoted from Faust:

I decided to post anyway the childish reply I got from Mirco on my request to only replace my backbox decals, which I have been asking for for months.
I wrote a polite factual email with PPS in CC by the way, so nothing offensive.
Funny thing is he does admit he has a lower printing quality (that was not my complaint though, haha).
Mirco’s new argument for not sending replacements makes absolutely no sense. But he is very good at finding new reasons to not help you
By the way I offered to resolve the issue BEFORE writing the review, but Mirco turns it around and says now because I did not write a review he will not help.
I got a different answer a few months ago from him but the conclusion was the same (he won’t help).
It’s what I said before -and others too- arguing with this guy is pointless.

Just so I’m understanding correctly, he moves items at shows for a discount as long as people write reviews? He’s buying reviews, that’s what’s happening?
