DO NOT buy anything from him because you will be deceived.
Paid for a schematic by PayPal, but didn't receive anything.
I waited and tried to contact him, but nothing in return.

Money wasted to a bad cause
Unfortunately I did not check the reviews before ordering a service sheet. Money wasted.
Needless to say no response.

From Retired regional Chairman of RETRA.
Unfortunately did not read previous reviews before placing and paying for a circuit which was not delivered!
As with other reviewers my 2 emails and 3 telephone calls were ignored.
Made complaint to eBay and received a full refund.
For whatever reasons of non supply I do not recommend this site, as it has proven to be a waste of my time and money.
No Response to order or follow-up
Unfortunately i have to endorse the reviews below. Order placed on 14th Feb, no response to follow-up email, and phone straight to VM. There is still a message on the website that they were away until 23/12/23 and it is now February.
As this looks to be a one man business who has provided great service in the past for schematics, i hope nothing serious is up.
However until, if, or when this business is up and running again then BUYER BEWARE.
No response after payment
Paid for a schematic by PayPal, but didn't receive anything. No response from emails and the phone was just an answering service. Got a refund from PayPal.
Very poor and very disapponting.

The service which Mike ("The Code Machine") provided was remarkable!
Initially I ordered the wrong manual for my vintage record player, and when I explained my error and requirements to Mike he e-mailed the correct manuals to me within minutes, and declined to accept any further payment.
"The Code Machine" was a pleasure to deal with and enabled me to restore a vintage instrument to fully working order. 5 Star service in all respects. *****
