Sorry for beating a dead horse but looking at your pics posted at joystick vault it looks closer to the other layout (the first one I posted).

Is that prototype different than the box I’ll get? I’m just asking since I’d prefer the layout you say it’s going to have (the TE with the right most six aligned).

Look again at the prototype, the right most six buttons aren’t aligned horizontally like the layout you posted in the OP, only the right most four are. Not trying to be an ass (honestly) just wanting some clarification.

the layout is what i posted (TE), the prototype was for fitment purposes and we changed it… I had played with the prototype and I liked the TE layout much better… hence why it was changed when we went to production… i played HRAP3 and then played the TE and TE was much better

once the first production boxes come in, i will update the pictures with the new ones

-joe

I thought so too earlier in the thread, but seeing his prototype it looks like decent work, and the top is CNC’d, not some kid with a router who doesn’t know how to use it. It’s $80 CAD which is cheaper than any box you can buy from anyone else on SRK, and you don’t have to wait 2-4 weeks for the guy to finish it. If it were a 6-button panel, I’d be buying one of his LS-32 cases when he gets them made.

http://www.norrisarcadesticks.com/

if you price around, you will see that the price is more than reasonable considering it’s CAD $ and there is no shipping for toronto guys…

-joe

pm me your prefer button layout… i will see if i can work it into the next design… there has been a few request for 6 button boxes

6 button guys

if i were to make the last 10 boxes with only the joystick cutout, the buttons holes not drilled… will you guys want that to do “custom” layouts? i can ask the CNC guy to skip the holes if that’s the case

-joe

That is all I needed to hear (read?). The TE layout is sweet. I have an HRAP EX and although I’m used to it, the first time I messed around with a Madcatz SE I instantly knew I like it’s layout better (the SE and TE have the same layout).

Since the production box will have the TE layout, color me happy. Though you were never in danger of losing my sale anyway. :slight_smile:

Thanks for the prompt responses man. They are greatly appreciated.

Oh and I think I’m like number 6 on your list. When are you shipping mine out again?

ah i have snap in buttons ordered, if I decide to get some screw ones for a 2nd joystick I’ll keep you in mind.

as soon as i get the first 10, I will find good packing boxes and start to ship them… so i will be sending out PMs to people on monday

-joe

no need to get all sour joe. it’s clear your a little threatened by competition like the other senior member posted in my thread. but dont come out making claims your not making any money off these cases and that you doing it purely as favour when you offered me 70.00 a case before you started going all chihuahua ape shiet.

i removed my post and stayed out of your thread and even apologized to you to you in several pm’s. what did you do? ignore and complain oh you cant sell here. blah blah blah.

yet you seem to think im targetting you when i talk to my members in other communities?? you seem a lil paranoid. there are several case sellers in the gta you know. hence the comparison i made when i said other guyS. thats a plural.

grow up take a chill pill and if you really want to make the claim that your not making any money. you’d lower your price to the members here to the one you offered me in the pm. i told you to relax and stay out of my thread. i think its only fair we let the members decide who to buy from now because everyone who looks at any post you made in my thread or other sites will agree your acting like dog in heat.

so go lower price to 70 and then make your 0 dollar profit claim even though we both know your costs are around 50 bucks anyways.

and since you brought up the fact that i marked up. fine… i guess i’ll charge 70 bucks just to make you happy so you can stop badgering us in other threads.

for someone who has 50 cases in mass production i find it funny that you can say your not doing it for the money. please…really now… your fooling no one.

oh and joe it’s not called skirting it’s called following rules. no prices were posted and no pm’s or contact with any member on srk to make sales were ever attempted by myself or tuyen. site mods can verify that in my inbox. no rules were broken. so as you ended your past in my thread and tuyen… the facts are not facts and in the open… you have yourself a nice day.

so there you have it people the choices are clear in the gta. and joe i’ll try to make this short since you wont stop posting in our thread…

me and tuyen have 1 design avail right now and 2 more in the next weeks desgined from scratch and not an exact copy from www.slagcoin.com design like joes. 2 options on wood. 2 options on top boards. any layout for buttons. we also sell parts unlike joe. we also assemble and paint unlike joe.
due to site rules we can only offer and sell these to you from a community where we senior members there and have a 100% feedback rating for buy and sell. we also have several people from the gta who hav already bought from us that are in this thread right now that can vouch for us. in fact im pretty sure the few that are planning to buy from you will probably say something after reading this.

if anyone is a little confused as to why i am posting this and i am referencing to you are free to look at the following links.
our thread on srk:
http://forums.shoryuken.com/showthread.php?t=180463
where we sell on rfd:

oh and last part. i been a member since 2007 i can sell here once i get 100 posts.
so we can go back and forth in each thread i don’t care. i’m 48 posts away now.

thanks for dropping by…

you wanted to buy 10 boxes at once, and i only have to drive to meet you once

if i had to sell 10 boxes seperately, i need to make 10 trips… my time to go out and meet 10 people costs money

i already stated in the first post that i was making 40 boxes, 10 for my friends and family and 30 is available for sale to the rest… the cost is high because it’s made by professional woodworking company, not some guy with hand tools in his home. if you go and find out how much real professionals cost, then you will know that there isn’t much margin in the price (taxes are included in my $80… i doubt you are paying any taxes to the government with your fly by night operation)

i guess when i mentioned the markups that must have touch a nerve… because i remember you were charging $90 CAD for boxes, which you were going to get from me for $70… i wasn’t even going to mention what rate i gave you so that you don’t come across as a bad guy, but since you chosen to post it, i will

i increase the amount of boxes to 50 because of the 10 you ordered… but once i find out you were going to upsell the boxes by $20 and then start to censor and thread crap, i added those to the available to the public

however you try to justify your posts, you are still trying to piggyback on the success of this site to further your gains ($$$)…

i guess you haven’t had retaliation this bad for a simple thread hijack, maybe next time you will think twice before jacking somebody’s thread

maybe i should just go and flood the toronto market and collapse it with oversupply… CNC machines work very quickly

-joe

Hey Joe,

I’d like to be removed from this group buy please. Sorry about dropping out in the last minute, I have to choose infamouskid’s offering because it looks more closer to what I have in mind in the first place when looking for a case (mostly due to the angled design and it is more rounded). Also, I ordered all my parts from him in the first place and it is easier for me to pick them up all in one place. Again, I apologize for the order cancellation Joe.

guys who are asking for shipping… please PM me your exact shipping address so I can go and quote you on the shipping cost and start the process running!

-joe

jtuyens case is made in a shop by his family business which are professional carpenters and do professional fabrication. for you to even make that comment not knowing this and claiming its made in a home with home tools is just plain ignorant and funny. again look at the 2 cases and its clear to see which one is made by a professional and not off some mass production line. each one of the cases we offer has to be hand detailed and rounded 1 by 1. and to justify the means of your piggyback comment… don’t be hypocrite now. please really. the truth is in th open. making a lil profit is not a crime. but making false claims and acting like monkey is just plain immature. i’ll stop posting now.

but i do suggest you take the advice of the senior member who told you to relax and close that potty mouth. ur starting to embarrass yourself here on srk. and the people backing out of your buy are clear indicators of who’s being dishonest and who isn’t.

oh i didn’t l mark up anything from your offer once you factor in the cost of shipping in the buffered price. also since i was giving 10.00 bucks off to all previous buyers. and yeah i still don’t see you lowering your price. good to see some people run honest businesses still.

like you said the truth is in the open…

guys are dropping out, guys are coming in… no big deal for me since i am not trying to make money on them…

joe if u didnt bored jtuyen in the first place none of this would happen and all infamous kid do was to defence jtuyen. infamouskid did apology to you but all u did was complain all the time. let this go now b/c all it is doing to u was losing customers. i was going to buy from u but i changed my mind after and infamouskd cases does look better and its made of pine wood.
