Do some arcade parts on etsy smell of RAM Controls...?! Or am i just paranoid

Subject says it all I suppose.

Any veterans have wisdom to offer here?

Things too rare, too cool to be true?

There are a few different sellers there, but if it looks a duck, quacks like a duck...

Could it be a chicken?

Relax, all right? My old man is a television repairman, he's got this ultimate set of tools! I can fix it.

That is what I would suspect- especially since they show as being in stock, but the detailed decription says up to 3 month wait! (appreciate the reply Yots)

I have been casually working toward making a Paperboy controller from various yoke guts picked off fleabay and an off the cuff google search for parts brought up someone selling a complete reproduction controller.

Too good to be (legitimately) true of course.

Maybe especially at $800

Looks like I should buy that welder I dream about.

Buy a lottery ticket as well. Maybe have just dodged a bullet!

Can buy a new pair of bars and grips for $50 and have $750 left for an adequately damn fine welder!
