OK, guess I get to be first! This year I made the leap to a talking skull setup, and decided to give Cowlacious Design's Scary Terry line a shot. I got them on the phone, and being a complete novice in this area, started asking the usual 500 questions. Not only did they patiently answer everything I had to ask, but they actually started to recommend places where I could get parts like LED's and wall-warts cheaper than the ones they offered (not much cheaper, their prices are pretty good!). At the conclusion of my order, they tossed in a few gratis items simply because they thought I might need them to make what I wanted - think about it, you can barely get free salt at McDonald's and these guys are tossing in free parts! Last, but not least, my shipment arrived in perfect order in 2, yes TWO days (I live in FL, they're in NV). I've since placed other orders with these guys and will continue to do so. Give it a shot and look over their products, you'll be hard pressed to find better service.
I tried to order from this guy and he refused to send me anything because I lived in Europe, got to thank him, because he was such a pain I moved on to a much better product.
I ordered 2 kits last year, one had the wrong components.
I had some difficulty in getting it straightened all out, but everything was made right, and overall, I'd say I'm satisfied.

I got a ST100 board a few days ago, and couldn't be happier. The older BPE board I've been using for a talking skull didn't work with the MP3 player I want to use. The ST100 does a great job with it. A had a couple of questions, called Carl, and got fast answers.

Seems we've moved over to reviewing the merchant and not specific products. Anyway, placed my first order with them last fall and received the wrong item. Email to them was acknowledged but no corrective action. Called Carl directly who apologized and shipped correct item right away. Plus he let me keep the wrong product I first received. That's OK by me.
I believe there are only a couple guys running the show but their products are good and affordable. I would order from them again.
I have been ordering audio drivers from them over sveral years and seen a couple of model modifications. I have had nothing but great things to say about Cowlacious Designs. Always what I order, when I order. And yes, their prices rule.
