Is this a good buy ?

 

I'v been thinking of getting some Happs parts and the prices are a lot higher than this BIN.

 

I want to know if these are a comparable quality ?

when I bought 2 joysticks and 20 buttons for my mame cabinet, i spent about $40 US dollars, but I dont know how much that is in AUS, I got mine from Happ.

40 US$ currently equals about 59 Australian $, according to http://www.xe.com/ucc/convert.cgi

Yeah the aussie dollar is around US$0.69 now which is why I'm thinking

of importing some stuff

 

But back to my question, Is this stuff as good as Happ's stuff ?

This comes up often on www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php

 

The answer is, no they aren't. These are the sticks and buttons that are used on the x-arcade joysticks you can buy. I've never used them, but I've heard the buttons are cheaper and just do not feel as good. If you're going to be making a big joystick or a MAME cabinet, go with good parts(order from Happs or from Bob Roberts). If you're going to spend all that time making something like that, do it right.
