WTS: Custom Sanwa Arcade Stick(s)

zeetes · March 18, 2009, 1:58am

finkle:

empty case with no parts, all holes cut, your paint color choice, your choice of profile ie: sloped, flat, or curved would be around 65usd plus shipping to your location. Oh if you have artwork that you would like printed I’ll throw that in too with the price. i’ll probably sell these too as a “roll your own” option as lately there has been an increased demand for them.

a joystick for either the ps3 or xbox 360 would be 220usd shipped anywhere in the CONTINENTAL UNITED STATES (sorry for the caps just have to make that clear as its caused problems before lol ). If I start selling lots of pre-made sticks the price might drop a little too over time.

pre-made sticks will probably be powdercoated opposed to liquid painting to add some significant durability. metallic finishes will probably still be done with liquid forms of paint (base and clear). There will be some slight changes to the case to speed up production but in the long run it will probably add to the durability of the sticks.

hope this helps

thanks!

oh wow. emailed!

Does that mean you do not ship overseas (eg UK?)

Out of curiosity, what’s the problem with a titanium stick? It sounds awesome, and like it would be worth dropping lots of money on.

Cons: Costs $2000.

My buddy and I were going to make our own sticks, but we sorta got in over our heads I think.

I saw:

We are able to install all the parts and paint the sticks, but having the cases made for us would save us a lot of trouble.

I’ll email you with more details of what we’re looking for.:tup:

bunnta · March 20, 2009, 11:14am

I dont know if you received any of my emails a couple of months ago, but once again, I am still waiting in line to support local talent. xuong_quan@hotmail.com is my email, so when a spot opens up just message me.

noontide · March 22, 2009, 2:15am

I sent emails to both of your email addresses, finkle.

Blood.Darkness · March 22, 2009, 1:03pm

Hey Finkle, I sent you an email to the address posted in the first page of this thread, but I didn’t hear back from you. I knew you were busy so I figured I’d wait a while since it was just a couple of days before SFIV was released. Anyways, could you count my original email as a request for an empty case and put me on the wait list?

System_1 · March 23, 2009, 1:35am

Hey Finkle - just joined up here to show my support and email you later about sticks

I’m pretty sure you made my cousin’s stick (transformer themed) and I gotta say GREAT work!

I’m of course also from the GTA - looking forward to hearing from you whenever you get a chance

cow8111 · March 23, 2009, 3:17am
