Well it took a while like a month or so. And I just got in my Mercury Marauder Dash Plaque from Auto Badges. Looks cool only thing is that it is very small for the price. And that they put my government name on top. But don't really like it. For that price. It could of been a little bigger. $59.99 I wouldn't recommend any one else buy one. And there shipping service sucks too. They gave me no tracking information. Just that oh it already went out. Everytime I emailed them or called them.

slickster if it was at that price. I would not complain. Or complained about the shipping service. You see them on the link. One of the guys here put up. And you are like that would be nice. You pay $59.99. And not only does there shipping suck. The Badges are real small. I will not even put it in my car. I will just put up. The Ford Racing sheet I bought. With all the info about my car. At a car show. That was $50 well worth the price.

That first picture really shows the poor quality of the printing in the MARAUDER lettering. Glad I passed on these.

That's some **** work right there for the cost. Glad you posted this so others can see.
Did you contact them about re-doing them?

I get why the "MARAUDER" lettering looks the way it does. It's supposed to have a shadow beneath it, make it look more like it's popping off of the badge.

It's the shadow font, they offered to remake them to those not liking the blurred lettering. They should change it permanently and not offer that font. It doesn't come out in small

Turbov6Brian they all look like that garage and *****y. And small for $59.99 it is a rip off period. Why don't you buy one. Then when it comes to your house. You tell me it is is Werth $59.99 .

I didn't buy one because I'm not a fool. Haha. Just kidding
$60.00 for a trinket, not my cup of tea. That's 3 tanks of fuel for my car, I'm on a budget since I haven't worked in over 2 years
60 bucks pays my electric, water and sewer bill
Something like that locally would be 1/3 the price. I guess it's who you know

TOREADOR is incorrectly spelled as well.

Good catch Bad Merc. I think you should request a refund. Especially with the misspelling of Toreador. That's unacceptable.

As I recall we all received proofs to approve prior to production. If the spelling was wrong and we didn't catch it, whose fault would that be? Mine came out printed EXACTLY as I typed it on the order form.

I thought it looked cool in the mock up and for $35 , I thought it was a good price! So 2 months later after paying I received it. They put a 1 1/2 × 4 1/2 plaque in a super thin cardboard 9 1/2 × 12 1/2 usps mailer, w NO protection! I live in an apt complex where the mailbox is 3 1/2 × 3 1/2 × 14 1/2 vertically. The mailman wrapped it around a magazine when he slid it in there. Not his fault! How's he suppose to know what's in there? Could've been papers! It didn't say, "Do Not Bend!" Needless to say, it was bent on two corners, going different ways. They weren't sharp bends, but bent none the less. I tried bending them back, but it's just ruined. The company did try to make it right, but by that point the damage was already done. I was so excited to get this, and after all the anticipation, I get a piece of crap! Here's supposedly a legit company that's gonna ship thier sh** out so poorly, that if they don't change thier ways now, they wont be in bussiness to long. At least not have continunig customers!

Thanks alot BAD MERC. For catching that. I didn't notice it because I haven't even look at it. Complete because of how much of a rip off it is. I emailed them already. Thanks alot.

If anyone wants my name and VIN they continue to use it on their website and all over their forum. Even though I have asked them multiple times to change it. I like mine enough for what it is, no a fan of the shadow font though.
Right now the website lists them for $45.

Mine are exactly what I expected.
A few complainers just make more noise than a lot of satisfied customers.
