Good or bad joys?

I wanted ball joysticks, and I saw these, and I wasn't sure if they'd be crap or if they're good?

Opinions?

Ah, MCA joys.  I've got a pair.  They're okay.  Really meant to be mounted to sheet metal though, as the stick is really short.

Also, although there is a 'ball' on the top, it's not a balltop per se.  It's all one piece.

Yeah I've got half a dozen of them. There pretty good, nice short throw, rubber centering grommet etc. Pretty good for budget stick.

If you're looking for a couple of ball tops, I'm supposed to receive this lot tomorrow...
I'll let you know which ones I'll be willing to let go of...

I'll even clean them up real good before shipping them off.

Between the ones I receive & the ones I've already got, I'll probably have about a dozen sticks to get rid of.  I'm thinking like 6 bucks + actual shipping for the microswitch ones... I'll also have a couple of WICO leafs to pass on, but I'll want a little more for those...

Sorry... Didn't mean to highjack your thread...
I'll start a new one when I get these things cleaned up & photographed...
(Just PM me if you're interested...)
I'm not a freak!...
Oh wait...
Yes I am...
