anyone order from "cornucopia-O-crap"/andrew0111 (eBay)?

i'm looking for a marquee for my Time Pilot '84 project, and this seems to be the only place to order one to size. normally i'd buy something used or NOS to cut down, but because of the large size of the marquee space on my cabinet, i have not been able to find one that's even close to matching.

anyone ever use this seller? quality any good? couldn't find anything with a search in the General forum, but i'd be really surprised if someone hasn't tried him.
 
I purchased two marquees from him recently. Only received one so far as he "forgot" to send the second one until I reminded him. Quality, however is pretty good on the one I have received.

I have ordered from him a couple times.
Quality seems to be good. printed on mylar/translite.
However MEASURE YOUR SIZES AND DOCUMENT THEM TO HIM REAL WELL!!!
Do it in your end of auction notes as well as the paypal notes.
If you dont he will print them up in whatever size he thinks is "NOS".
I had ordered a Marble madness marquee from him and it came in almost 3 inches taller! apparently he didnt know the size of a system 1 marquee.
He did make it good by sending me another one, so I placed another order for a Karate Champ (custom sized) and a TP84. Because I didnt specify in both places listed above the Karate champ was a 1/2" short.
This time he didnt do anything about it though.
Like I said - decent product and price, but just cover your ass in writing to him as he WILL mess up the sizes!
 
He's in Canada. It often times takes forever and a day + 2 to get anything from Canada. I waited almost a month for a marquee from him and when it never showed we both agreed to cancel the auction. I bought from another source. The new one arrived a week later. Two days after that the one from Andrew showed up. I refused delivery.
 
I bought a couple of marquees from him when he was selling original marquees. Lately all he has are repros on translights. Something I am not really fond of.

And delivery is hit or miss. The two marquees I bought from EBay auctions were 2 -3 weeks apart. The second one arrived a week before the first one. We had already talked about getting the first one replaced. The other issue is that there is no cross-border delivery confirmation unless you use FedEx or DHL or the equivalent. He ships via Canadian postal.

i do have a couple of too-small TP '84 marquees that i can use in a pinch if it doesn't show in time.

i've bought a few things from Canada and so far have had pretty good luck not having things held up at the border.
 
I have an NOS TP'84 marquee decal.
Factory kit provided a decal that you applied to plexi.
$25 plus shipping if anyone is interested.

approx 8" x 24.25"
