Best in the field? Really? Can you support? Who are you comparing them to? What is your basis for selecting them better than anyone else?
Dozens of witnessed repairs, hundreds of testimonies, and the failure of everyone else except for one person who's still yet to work on it) to repair a troublesome chassis of my own. Chad knows what he's doing, and is in my opinion the best monitor repair for hire you can get. Hands down.
I've tried the rest. Chad's the best.

Please folks, no baiting. I'm not burning anyone here on the forums.
I have no problem with anyone endorsing anyone. I'm not trying to start anything either. I sincerely wanted more information on how someone can say "best in the field" and "I've tried the rest". If you tried others and they didn't measure up, I want to hear about it. Heck, I imagine everyone would like to hear about who to avoid. What was better about arcadecup? What was bad about the others? There is nothing wrong with posting objective reviews, even if they may be negative, as long they are factual. Posting information like that is good for everyone in the hobby. It leads to more working games, faster and for a cheaper price, if we all know who to go to and who to avoid.
Good for you if you like Chad's work. I happen to like allgood (and have documented proof they are cheaper and faster). I just would like to hear information about the others you have tried for your comparison that led you to the conclusion that Chad it the best.
Here's what I know. My apologies in advance for the shitstorm this may cause. These opinions are from my own experience.
Buffett: Mike, you're a great guy, but you got stuck with my haunted chassis on this one. I had a Wells Gardner 25" 7400 chassis with a jumpy picture, thread is here. This chassis has been the bane of my existence for nearly 2 years now. I had a local guy look at it first, and when he couldn't fix it, I sent it off to Mike (Buffett). Buffett spent a ridiculous amount of time on the chassis, and couldn't repair it. So, he sent it to Phoenix Arcade Repair (P.A.R.) here on the forums for me.
P.A.R. (Phoenix Arcade Repair): Tim from P.A.R. took my chassis in for repair and sat on it for 6 months. At times, I had to PM or call him 3 or 4 times to get him to return my messages. After 6 months of broken communication and zero repair updates, he finally had his tech spend about four hours with my 7400 chassis, and he couldn't fix it. Then I went back into my repair thread listed above, and asked for help. Modessitt chimed in, and let me know he'd look at it. That's (supposedly) where my chassis is now.
Nope. You asked me a while back if I ever got it, and I told you no. Still haven't got it. Was PAR supposed to ship it to me? If so, check with them...
P.A.R. said:smalltownguy2 said:Did you happen to get that chassis sent off?
No .. it will go out today. I am sorry I was out of town, gave it to one of my guys and he didnt do it.
I appologize.
Tim
Don't forget there is also P & L Video Games for monitor repair work:

You mean those hack jobs that some people call repairs? I've repaired more of their "repairs" than I can count.
Fine. Here's what I know. My apologies in advance for the shitstorm this may cause. These opinions are from my own experience. YMMV.
