Well..... Without having read these threads about MAD or having bought anything from him before, I stumbled across his offering yesterday for a Dr Who mini-playfield repro that I was looking for.....he was offering it with free shipping on Ebay for 99 bucks, or 89+ shipping via the MAD website. A great deal.... After shipping, still about 25 bucks less than anywhere else I could find it (Marco, PPS, SF). If eBay was to be believed, it was his last one. So I asked him a quick question via eBay about it to inquire if it was a licensed repro.......
The response? Yes, it was licensed. And within a couple minutes of that, he increased the price, both on eBay and on his website by $20. When I inquired about that happening, he told me "Prices are subject to change at any time just like gas prices".
Yeah.... Like gas prices.....during a gas shortage.
So I just ponied up the extra dough and bought it elsewhere. Unbelievably crappy way to treat a potential customer. No potential now.....
