Dreamarcades accessories

Has anyone ever bought the button & joystick sets from dreamarcade.com?  They always have them on eBay for cheap, but are they acceptable quality or junk?

I got word back from Dreamarcades and they said they are OEM parts from Hong Kong (Much like the X-Arcade equipment).  Anybody try them out?

Of course, what does OEM mean?  Are they just generic or is OEM a company?

OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer



no idea on quality though

I'm assuming by the time stamps on your posts that you've got an itch that kit will scratch.....cripes, for $19 for what they give, how can it NOT be worth a shot?  The only downside is that listing is for blue only.

I am actually researching buttons and joysticks for some friends of mine who want me to make them a total of two one-player setups.  On eBay there are these blue buttons & sticks for $19, the X-Arcade buttons & sticks for $20, another set with better colors from Dreamarcades for $25, and two sets that are all Happ for $36 (no shipping on the all Happ setups).  I am leaning towards the Happ setups because if shipping is included with the happs it is only about a $10 price difference. Plus, with the Happ setup you can choose all of your fav colors.

Here are some links:
