I've dealt with Flashback and gamereproductions recently and have actually had a more positive experience with gamerepro. Anyway, most of these makers are one or two guy operations and if you order more than one cart it's just going to take a month+ no matter who you're dealing with where they're making them on-demand. Dealing with any maker who wants you to send in a cart to make your cart just isn't worth the time.

Hey guys, i'm running into some issues with gamereproductions. I ordered a complete copy of Crimson echoes a few months ago, when i finally received the package early september it was just the cartridge. So i emailed them and they replied that the box and manual would be shipped later. I've tried to contact a few times after that but it's been quiet ever since. I just want to know if and when i can receive the rest of my shipment. i've ordered and paid the game back in july, that's a long time ago...
I'm STILL waiting on a Zelda: Ancient Stone Tablets ... well over 4-5 months now myself.

Game Reproductions.com is easily the worst site to order repros from in terms of the time you end up waiting. It's a very disgusting business, bordering on a scam (and it may very well be as I'm STILL waiting on my game).
 
Quick update, i finally received the box a few weeks ago. I expect the manual to arrive as well (not sure when, but it will come).

Ran across nesgamingrepro today while searching for Mr. Gimmick. I was pleased to see the cart was available and of excellent quality but I was saddened to see they offer Little Samson in what appears to be a direct copy with no reproduction marker or label variant. Be safe guys.

Round 2. I may have jumped the gun on nesgamingrepro, appears to be a viable option after all. Today I received some actual pics of the Mr. Gimmick cart he is offering. Unlike the stock photo from the site it clearly has reproduction on the front label. I has a happy again

11/21/2015 EDIT
Philip Acree aka necrosaro420 here on NA aka Gamereproductions.com has ignored my attempts to contact him since August 31st.  I've been communicating with hi VIA facebook and his page shows him posting other things but he hasn't even read my PM's.  

I've got the brunt of my games but at this point I just feel like he's not going to send the rest.

This is what I'm still owed.

NES Super Contra 7 x 1 SNES Chrono Trigger Crimson Echoes x 3 Legend of Zelda: Ancient Stone Tablets (Week 1-4) x 2


I don't understand why he's still on this list with all the complaints people are having

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



*****************Update


6/15/15  I got another round of games from Philip (Gamereproductions.com)


listed Below is the rest of what I'm owed.   


 


SNES


Chrono Trigger Crimson Echoes x 3 


Legend of Zelda: Ancient Stone Tablets (Week 1-4) x 2


 


NES 


MegaMan Ultra x 2


Super Contra 7 x 2



**** Update 3-21-15
I received round 2 of my games. 
These were MUCH better in terms of Quality then the last batch.



Here are the remaining games I'm waiting on.



SNES
Chrono Trigger Crimson Echoes x 3 
Legend of Zelda: Ancient Stone Tablets (Week 1-4) x 3 
Super Mario World: Return to Dinosaur Land x 3
Super Metroid Zero Mission x 3
Super Mario RPG Armageddon x 2



NES 
Legend of Zelda: Shadow of Night x 1 
MegaMan Ultra x 2
Super Contra 7 x 2




***Update



I finally received some of the games I ordered. 
SNES
3 x Super Mario World Brutal Mario
3 x BS Zelda
3 x Zelda Parallel worlds
3 x More Zombies ate my neighbors
Nes
2 x Zelda Outlands
All the game work in the systems they were made for, however, Super Mario World Brutal Mario, BS Zelda, and Zelda Parallel worlds do NOT work with the retron 5. 
BS Zelda isn't recognized at all.
Brutal Mario and Zelda Parallel Worlds read as an unknown cartridge but then just go to a black screen. 
More Zombies ate my neighbors reads as an unknown cartridge but plays.



Also, the Pins on most of these were absolutely filthy.  (Photos upon request)
 



Here are the remaining games I'm waiting on.  
 


SNES

You've got a good standing over on NA but I'm just getting a bit concerned.

I actually just received my order from game reproductions, pretty much when he said it'd arrive 4-6 weeks. Flashback does seem to get you the games quicker if you're ordering a bunch at a time. But I'm actually happiest with the speed and quality of game I've gotten from NES4life over on the for sale thread.

Jeez man, why'd you sent out so many SNES games all at one time? Should of sent out like 10 or less just to test the waters of their trading system. The repro game market system is "made-to-order" or "waiting-for-the-spare-parts-to-make-the-order", it's generally not an "in-stock" business model. That's why I rather not get into serious repro collecting. There just isn't a consistent stock to be had by all. It would nice if the powers that be could reproduce the chips instead of using donors then these businesses would be limitless. But by their very donor system, they are very limited. I hope you get everything your due from them. I hope you update us on this.

Holy crap, you ain't kidding.

We're talking about 1 guy doing all the labor?

677 carts say they take 10 min (each) to make? (flash cart, print label, apply label)
113 man hours.

Wow. LOLz...

I clicked it, on my Wii-U Gamepad. Tons of popups and redirects. Drive-by downloads are why you should keep an up-to-date antivirus (I use Avast) and never use IE to browse the web. Been using Firefox since 2005.

I clicked it on my PC ( I wanted to see what the sight looked like), it te directed me to some weight Lose thing (lol) then a random voice said "your firewall may be infected"...lol... I'm assuming it was from the infected website. I promptly ran malware bytes.

Anyone have current/past delays/issues with GameReproductions???

I put in an order about a month and half ago and asked them/him about eta a couple weeks ago and he has yet to send a simple reply.
(I've tried emailing and commenting on my order via the site)

One thing i can understand is delays and real life and i accept that. I've also waited a month or so for repros from Timewalk. But one thing i can't stand is
poor/no communication. It doesn't take much effort to respond with a simple "hey sorry my dog scruffy died and i moved so im a little behind" or something.
