I have a problem… Every arcade store i check the freight turns out to be more expensive then the parts. so im wondering what store i could us to buy parts? I live in Sweden Stockholm…
the stores i know of is akihabara(japan), arcadestore.de(germany), lizardlick(us), gremlingsulutions(uk)
IMO gremling and arcadestore.de is to expensive compared to other stores…but the freight makes the other stores so much more expensive.
any1 have a suggestions how i can get by a bit cheaper? im a poor student hehe

problem is the stores seems to always miss a few items… no store have them all as it seems Focusattack was the closest but no jlf and white shaft in store atm…
Okay we see your part list. I don’t see why you need a 2nd JLF spring unless your installing it into a different stick.
Also you didn’t answer one of Dako’s questions
What is your budget for all this?
Thats life for you, often us modders have to order from several sites to get all the parts and materials what we need. My last mod I ended up ordering from 3 different online stores to get all the parts I wanted.
Also last I check Sanwa does not have clear buttons in the 24mm size.
well cheaper for me is when the store keeps the normal prices and dont add much compared to others and the freight to Sweden does not become the price of 8buttons… so normal prices and cheap freight i would put as my definition as cheap.
well i have money that is not the problem… problem is i basicly want “most bang for the buck” when it comes to price and freight to sweden.
i need 2springs caus i want to put ls-33 in a sanwa jlf to get more stiffness and the other spring is for friend stick.
That is vague, but ok. I didnt find any EU store with prices anywhere near US, HK or Japan stores. When you take into account various taxes, fees and transport time, online EU stores don’t look so bad. Put everything on paper and calculate expenses. I dont want to admit myslef how much I spent on my joysticks and they are pretty much homemade bare bones.
