    coinop cauldron is who does all our work and not a single time have I installed a "passed final testing" board from him and it not be 100%.
    highest recommendations from me.

    Rob Anthony(borygard) from lockwhenlit.com has a phenomenal rep around here

    Rob is awesome and has handled repairs too tedious and/or complex for me.

    Clive. Did someone mention Coin Op Cauldron?

    I would suggest Chris Hibler. Good work at a fair price.

    Rob Anthony does excellent work. www.lockwhenlit.com

    Clive runs coin op cauldron. He is who I used and had good work.
    Rob Anthony is another I hear good things about. A friend of mine used him.

    Those are the two I would recommend. I have not heard of others though :/ But there is a reason they have a backorder

    Thanks David. Yes, I can take care of it.
    But first, what's the issue you're having Smiley? )))

    The thing I like about Clive at Coin Op Cauldron, and maybe others do this too, is that he gives you a log of what he fixed/upgraded when he fixes your board. Not only does he repair it, but he'll beef up connectors, do the remote battery mod, make sure fuses are correct, etc. when he repairs your board, then he gives you a record of exactly what he did.

    I havent had to send boards out until recently and Jerry so far has been great.

    In contacting Rob or Clive and even K's Arcade, their backlogs are 30 to 90 days which for some people arent deal breakers but I dont like having a game down that long.

    Also I know a few of the places mentioned get picky as to which boards they will and wont work on. Rob specifically doesnt work on Gottlieb boards at shows, Clive I believe wont repair some boards with corrosion.

    Right now I am unfortunately unable to handle WPC at all for repair work.
