omgiv Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 Hi Guys, i am thinking of starting back with my 1665 build again. I have these two casebacks and am trying to decide which to use. Each has its pluses and minuses. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue. Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 They seem to have different curvature on the upper surface. The left one has a bit higher dome, where the right one is flatter. Though the left engravings are way more crisp than the right ones. I would choose the crisper engraved left case back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSTEEL Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 Left engraving looks much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omgiv Posted November 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 Thank you gentlemen. I appreciate the comments. I guess I will use the Phong back. I wish that the MQ back I got looked like the one on his website. Thanks again for the feedback! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cc33 Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 That's the problem with mq you get what you get, maybe what was on the site and it maybe not. Crap shoot. I would say the same for other dealers of parts as well, you really have to know what you're doing and have patience to return some items and deal with the seller if/when what you get is not what you were expecting.

freddy333 Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 My experience with MQ has been pretty consistent & I have always received exactly what was in the QC pics he sent prior to shipment. You did request QC pics? Phong & NDT are the worst offenders when it comes to receiving something different than what you saw on their websites. Phong, especially, has repeatedly sent me items that did not even match his QC pics. & at his crazy prices, that is something to consider, seriously, when searching for parts.

cc33 Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 No I didn't ask for qc pics unfortunately. This is going back quite a while when I was still fairly inexperienced. I assumed that I was going to get what was in the pics posted on his site. I don't deal with him (mq) anymore but I guess it was partly my fault for not requesting those pics.

omgiv Posted November 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 He did send me QC pics Freddy, but they were from about 3 feet away so i couldn't really tell any detail. He initially sent me a DRSD caseback but quickly got that fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
