Bought a Naomi 2 + NetDimm 4.02 + multi-BIOS + zero key from @Baldo206 . They were packed with care in an interior and exterior box. Everything arrived safely, is as described, and works great. There was a shipping snag that led to him needing to pay for shipping a second time. It wasn't cheap...

Last year, I bought a modded OG Xbox from mattsoft and everything went great. @mattsoft proactively refunded some of my payment because shipping came in cheaper than expected. Recently, I bought his Sony HB-101 MSX and accessories. They were super-well packed and were in even better condition...

Picked up a Strikers 1945 III / Strikers 1999 sold as working on Ebay. Once it arrived, I realized the resistor arrays range from dinged (RA7, RA8 ) to shattered (RA9). Is that going to be a problem? What bad behavior would I expect from a non-functional resistor array? I didn't see any...

Bought an Outzone PCB that looks terrible but plays great from @Maximus-Prime586 . Great communication throughout, and a straightforward transaction. Thanks!

Putting this in general since the nature of the problem is probably not Sega-specific. tl;dr: I have a short. I can't find a solder bridge and I want to know if anyone knows of other common sources of short circuits. My Astro PSU's +5V line was topping out at ~4.5V. I've heard a couple times...

Bought this Deathsmiles kit from @Enskynet . Great communication throughout, open dialogue about customs valuation, and protected the Cave cardboard with two outer boxes and plenty of padding. He didn't charge any extra for the comically large outermost box. 😂

@Still Green sold me a PGM2 KOF98UH. No fuss, easy transaction, prompt shipping. Thanks!

Bought a pre-modded KI1+2 dual board and Telpherion acrylic case from @luke7110 . It was packed very well (foam blocks keeping the PCB case away from the edges, lots of filling), but a couple wires still got jostled loose in transit. He sent me diagrams and notes so I could find the...

I bought a KI2 dedicated PCB with a DOM mod from a forum member. Worked great for months. A couple weeks ago, it stopped working. It boots, and the demo plays fine. But when I start a fight, the fight intro is choppy, then halts, culminating in a blue fill and a reboot. A disk check said 126...

I bought a single-board Guardians PCB from a forum member. I think this is the one everyone calls the Korean version. I haven't fired it up yet because I noticed a cap at C4 (near the JAMMA key) was removed messily, and every other matching PCB I've found online has a cap at that spot. Looks...

Bought @Matan 's recapped Altered Beast + acrylic case to replace the System 16B I killed with a bad recap. It was well-packed, and everything is playing great. Thank you!

Short version My System 16B is showing a black screen after a motherboard recap. The power LEDs come on. Background Emboldened by successfully recapping a few arcade PCBs and consoles, I thought I should do a preventative recap on my System 16B before installing it in a Semload case. A few of...

tl;dr What could cause a Sega JVS IO to emit input only when a single button is pressed, and stop when two are pressed? Background & Problem I'm trying to restore JVS functionality in a New Delta 32 cab that was gutted for USB input only. The original JVS IO appears to be unobtanium, so I got a...

Bought a KI2 board from @Phil Bennett. Good price, great communication, transparent about condition, good packing. Most importantly, he gave me a heads up about needing a fan (which I didn't know about) and needing -5V for audio (which I did). I'd definitely buy from him again.

I always heard people could spot MVS fakes from looking at the PCB, but I just learned of mvs-scans.com recently and started checking mine. How exactly should I expect PCBs and ROM chips to match the reference images? Are there ever mismatches due to factory conversions? I want to know what I'm...

@Thomas sold me a couple Logitech Z-5500 speakers that I've been looking for to use in my Astro. Money sent Monday afternoon, shipped Tuesday, arrived Wednesday. It was packed well, in a cardboard box with multiple layers of padding. Even though it was a small-value transaction, Thomas took the...

I'm sharing this as a repair log in progress. Of course, if someone has helpful information or ideas, I sure won't turn you away! tl;dr: I'm trying to fix P1B4 on an IGS PGM motherboard. I found a bodge wire that had come loose and restored the connection (verified with a multimeter), but P1B4...

I was looking at my 89626A-4 DASH A-board for a different reason (Darksoft multi troubleshooting) and noticed a surface mounted component toasted to a crisp. It's attached to the OKI M6295, which I read controls non-FM sounds. I hadn't noticed any problem with non-FM sounds. Maybe they were less...

Saw your amazing work on suprawhite's CP. Are you available to make something similar for me? Already sent you a DM, but wanted to post here for visibility and posterity.

Same deal as darkstrider2's thread, but figured I should create my own. I'm selling a Jasen's Customs Capcom CPS3 Arcade PCB Case in Black/Black from his latest run. Everyone who ordered a yellow/blue case got a black/black one. Jasen, stand-up guy that he is, told us we could keep the black...
