Is there a place in NZ that can source Arcade Sticks cheaper than me importing?
Im in the process of trying to buy/source a Madcatz FS - TE or a Qanba Real Arcade Fightingstick Q3 as i only have $200ish to spend :D
Buying these from Play Asia is $90 + for shipping which given the weight and distance is no surprise.
Is there any websites i may have over looked in a quest for a cheaper shipping rate?
Asked in these forums cause if any Kiwis knew, you guys would :D
Any other sticks worth a looks in with my budget?
Any help from you guys would be sweet.
TE's are getting harder and harder to source. Unfortunately Play-asia are probably the best bet atm. Although some people have had success with the capcom store.
Madcatz are dropping the MVC3 TE soon, so you might find shops like livewire (www.livewiregames.co.nz) might get them in stock, but i wouldnt hold my breath.
I scoured trademe for you but didnt find any im afraid. :(
Thanks for your reply, yea nothing on TM just now, may just have to save a tad extra and see if any NZ retailers get the MVC3 stick.
Rarr :(
If i see anything ill post it up here. :)
Paid $225nz delivered to the door in 5 days (during xmas/new years period too) from here http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=73046 if that is of any help?
Amazon now ships to NZ too if you're keen. Sometimes they have sales on and it's pretty cheap.
Guys thanks so much for the info, josh that looks not to bad of a price! is that with free shipping? not for outside US :( and after after the Xbox version :D
way cheaper than Play Asia if it was.
sounds to easy, gona keep an eye on the site see if it come back in stock :D

Yea dude, ill be sure to keep an eye out on there for restock, baring that ill check the MVC3 Stick.
UPDATE: Just Pre ordered a round 2 TE from Playtech.co.nz their stocks dues in Febuary sometime, will be stuck with my Ex2 untill then :)
