Anyone know where to get NEW 7800 Proline sticks?

[Danno]

I wanna get a New 7800 Proline joystick, but am having trouble locating any. Most places only have used or "refurbished" ones. I want a new one, in or out of the box.

 

There is one seller on Ebay who carries the bulk stock new/unused sticks but his feedback rating is horrible, and he's got 1,000,000 rules for his auctions, doesn't take paypal, and Negs you and call you an idiot, moron, etc. if you don't follow his rules or ask him why it's taking 3 weeks to ship something. I don't want to deal with that guy.

 

Any suggestions?

 

And please don't dump this post into the recycling bin (the "Wanted" forum). I'm asking for a list of vendors for NEW sticks online, not looking to buy or trade with AA members. (unless one of them happens to carry new Proline sticks).

Have you tried myatari.com, Best Electronics, or Video 61? I have a new one but I have to tell you those joysticks suck. You are better off buying one of the 7800 joypads.

They don't suck, by any stretch of the imagination. In fact, they have always been my favorite. I have a CX-40 & Two Prolines and two CX-78 Joypads.

 

I like the Prolines the best, but the ones I have are really beat up, because they were used when I got them. They're too loose, and the switches on the PCB are all worn out or cracked.

 

Haven't tried Video 61, but I know they tend to be pricey, and Best only has used ones. Thanks for the tips though.

 

edit: Video 61 wants $29.95 for one Proline Joystick. I cant get a whole system on ebay for that amount.

Not to get too far off topic but I read that guy's feedback and his responses today. UN*friggin*BELIEVABLE!!! The guy is rude as hell and calls people idiots, morons, and other assorted names and people **STILL** buy from him.

 

Back to topic... sorry, can't help you out with any vendors.
