Well now Jesus H Christy Almighty...
I'll give the guy a call and see if I can make voice contact with him. I will explain to him that he has managed to piss off just about everyone he sold the marquees to and see what he says.
I am a LITTLE worried because it DOES sound like he was collecting some dough to skip town and if he DID do that, he skipped town with my brand new degaussing coil...but I have to have faith...the guy seemed like he was pretty much on the up n up...nice guy. Hell, my wife and I even made preliminary plans to have dinner with him and his wife (who I have yet to meet).
Last I heard from the guy was a PM to me saying "Hey bro, I am in California and will be meeting my arcade guy, do you need anything?" which I responded that I needed a Sanyo 20EZ. That was last contact, which was about a week or more ago.
It is hard to dispute the photo evidence from MULTIPLE sources here... if those marquees are what was sold, they are clearly
NOT New Old Stock.
Let me try to get ahold of the guy...
EDIT: Did anyone who purchased marquees from Foxen GET NOS marquees? Anyone who bought some HAPPY with their purchase?
