Not really because....

A: they are expensive
B: I am buying all my stuff from GGG and don't want to pay double shipping
C: they are expensive
 :lol   ;)

Other than that, what is the reason you like them? Like if they are really good I might get one.

And where it says you can buy the Pro Wiring Set in 10, 20, 30 and 40 switches does that mean it only gives you enough wire for that many switches even though you can have up to 40 on the interface?

You know you can contact the retailer directly and he would answer all your questions about his products in detail right?   

Mouse button harness allows you to add switches to the spinner's wiring harness.  These switches when depressed will send mouse click signals. 

The wiring harness numbers do indeed determine how many switches can be wired to that harness.  My board for instance only uses 22 so I wouldn't need all that extra wire that would come with a 40. 

Mini--pac opti allows you to wire your optical devices and your momentary switch devices all through one interface.  They are fantastic little products but if you are getting a GGG spinner with USB or PS2 connection and that's your only optical device it wouldn't be necessary.  If you wanted to use an Atari spinner or trackball that product would get you rolling.

Still waiting to here back from GGG.

So would the mouse button harness really be needed?

No.  Convenient perhaps, needed no.  I don't like them.  I don't like dedicated trackball buttons either so take my advice with a shaker of salt.
