This is a completely-stock part Namco stick, and it’s going up for sale. It’s quickly becoming an antique collectors item for those of you stick-lovers out there (or would make a nice Christmas gift for someone who is), but is also great for those of us still playing PSX/PS2 games competitively.
I long hoped to do a mod project on this stick, but I’ve left it untouched and hit a bit of financial trouble, so it’s up for sale in it’s original form. As you can easily tell, this old girl is used and there is a bit of fading and rust where the hand normally rests. The B-button could also use a new microswitch. (For those of you not technical-inclined, that means the signal is a little weak and you have the pound the button like it was an American arcade button to get it to read). But overall the stick is fully functional and all the parts are of it’s original form, I’ve not opened her yet.
I know this stick is popular in it’s small dedicated fan-base, so I’m asking 85$ USD + S&H for her. I’ve known them to sell well over 100$, so given it’s condition and rarity I don’t think this is very unreasonable. You can send me an email at KireiKotomine@gmail.com (this is also my paypal account) with an offer. I will be leaving her up for sale for a few days, so do not send me any money until I’ve confirmed your order. I’m only selling one, so be sure to send your offer as soon as possible. It’s on a first-come first serve basis, but if someone offers me more than my base price I might choose to sell to the highest bidder. I didn’t want to put this on ebay or anything because I want to make sure it goes to a competitive fighting gamer who knows it’s value (ie: you guys).
Shipping and Handling usually amounts to around 6-10$, I’ll need to know your region to get an accurate estimate. Of course, so long as it’s possible to ship to your country I will make every effort to, but I would largely prefer the sale to be in America just to make the shipping process easier.
I’d buy it but I’m broke D:!

ON TOPIC: reasonable (?) price for it, but I got a custom coming my way (bringing my total to 4), and I have too many sticks as it is (for a normal person, that is…)
If you end up not selling it, I would give 25 shipped for the stock namco push buttons. Assuming there in good condition.

EDIT. Sorry, I have to withdraw. I’ve got too many sticks and way too much work on my table to add to either. Best of luck.
