Microswitches, anyone?

[fgh]

Hi there,

As I have a few dead microswitches in my x-arcade stick, my zipsticks and my mame cabinet I am going to order some more.

I found what seems like a good deal on xgaming.com: $20 for 100 microswitches (button or joystick type) and $20 for shipping to Europe.

I'd like some of both types, but don't need 200 switches.
Would someone like to join in?

Total price would be $60 for two hundred switches shipped here.
Split in two = $30 / €20 (50 button + 50 joystick)
Split in three = $20 / €14 (33 button + 33 joystick)
Split in four = $15 / €10 (25 button + 25 joystick)

(+ shipping to you)

Anyone interested?

Just thought I'd offer a tip. When I built my MAME cabinet, I got my parts from http://www.groovygamegear.com.

I had no previous experience of arcade parts, but I can say the parts are performing very well indeed. I wouldn't know about the difference between joystick switches and button switches, is there really a difference? All I know is the button switches I got feel very responsive, with a light action.

In any case, they sell switches individually there, and while they'll cost more per item than that bulk deal you found, you have the advantage of ordering your exact required amount. Check it out if you're so inclined
