I was looking to buy a couple of games from them but the lack of combined shipping coupled with "instant pay only" didn't allow for this. Guess I was right on not buying...this guy's a complete a$$hole.

For whatever it's worth, I bought 3 games from him about 2 weeks ago (Ordyne, Ninja Spirit, Silent Debuggers) and the games arrived well-packed and in great condition about 8 or 9 days later. I'm in the US.

That said, the guy definitely has an attitude problem. The type of attitude where if you have any sort of problem with your order, complaining about it probably won't get you anywhere.  :roll:

Like geddon, I got my games in great condition and I'm also in the US (west coast).

Sounds like the guy is lazy and an a$$hole but for those of you who haven't received anything, I wouldn't give up hope just yet. Mine took a long time to show up, too.

My carefully packed games arrived today from morediscslimited.  It wasn't exactly speedy delivery, but three weeks isn't horrible either (like Missa's adventure was).  They're so minty fresh - I wish I had a digital camera so I could take a picture before I pop their cherries.

They sure do, and the shrink wrap ain't crushing 'em one iota (as some peeps fear).

That's who we're talking about, turbokon. Give him a few more days. He was slow for all of us but the games did show up, in FANTASTIC condition.

Yeah, he's a slow shipper.  I ordered on 1/31, and he sent emails the following day stating that they'd been shipped.  Contrary to his communications, the postage was dated 2/12, so the bum sat on 'em for nearly two weeks before shipping.  They were nicely packed though, and in a box that originally housed six copies of Ghost Pilots for NeoGeo - kinda neat if you're a NeoGeo collector, which I'm not.

On a side note - I now have two extra copies of Silent Debuggers.  If anyone's interested, gimme a buzz.

All the Turbo games from more disc are gone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They still have Turbografxs for cheap as chips though! Thats where I got mine and I must say, excellent service. I got some neo geo games for super cheap too, before Christmas. They can be slow (even in the uk), but it all turned up. I'm going to buy myself a few more Tg16s next week. They are so cheap, you never know when you might need another one...

I'm still waiting for my games. Is the UK still having that mail strike?


Are you talking about more discs limited?

If so, this might answer some questions for you: http://www.neo-geo.com/forums/showthread.php?t=177339

The responses from him are especially interesting.


Thats interesting, as well as buying five neo games which all came (even though some took a while..), I also got my tg16 and 4 games and also a refund for some Jaguar games which didn't show. They were actually a total pleasure to deal with. I spoke to them by email a good few times and we actually ending up cracking jokes together..

The Old Rover has had a change of heart, so I no longer have the pair of Silent Debuggers available.  Sorry, folks.

Finally got my sealed ninja spirit in the mail today.  Overall I'm pleased since I didn't pay an arm and a leg for it.

Yeah, you really can't beat those prices. I ordered two more from SimpleSimon today.  :oops:
