Best repro snes controller on Amazon?

Needs to be wired.

Needs to work with original hardware.

Cost is not a concern.

That's a tough one because the stuff on amazon is usually the same unbranded, Chinese, pads but with different sellers.  If you don't mind taking them apart and cleaning off the splooge you can typically find used pads for around $25 a pop.  If you don't mind the pal colors and can buy it on ebay they have a brand new in box pad for $50 right now.

I have a couple of these:

They're the closest generic/third party I've found to the real thing that work on original hardware. Unfortunately they've showed as Out of Stock for quite a while now.
