| How does this guy get Happ products so cheap? |

I've ordered from him. Fairly quick shipping. As I said in another recent thread, the buttons and switches were not Happs, which the auction led me to believe they were. |

I've bought from him as well. He shipped fast, contacted me about a mistake I made when placing my order (that he could have ignored) and was generally very helpful. I too thought that I was getting happ buttons (I bought the joystick/button combo) but when I re-read the auction listing I found it to be very clear. I think like a lot of people, I probably just saw "happ" in the listing and assumed the rest. If you look at all of his listings, he clearly states when he includes the happ buttons. Here are his listings |

And almost everything he sells is a good 10-15% cheaper than ordering from Happ. Not to mention he ships cheaper. Anyone had any business transactions from him? --- End quote --- First as others said - the title may say "Happ Competition Joysticks and Pushbuttons", but the buttons are not Happ. Not a problem. Second, both he and www.therealbobroberts.com offer 10-15% cheaper than Happ. This is because Happ offers a discount if you buy 10+ or 100+ of an item and these sellers pass some of that discount on to the customer. |

Yes, Happ Controls has "operator's" prices for those that buy often and in quantities. |

I sent the guy and email in case he wanted to reply to some of the questions here (like I said, he was a good seller). Here's an excerpt (with some editing to make it clearer): " I understand the possible confusiuon with the buttons. I can only fit so many letters in the auction title description. I have made the decision to eliminate the Betson-Imperial buttons I sell. I have placed them on sale at .99 cents starting today. To be competitive and similar with other larger companies I'm only going to carry Happs Competitive joysticks, Happs Competitive convex buttons and Happs old style concave buttons. You will see the new Happs Concave buttons on e-bay next week." The main thing I got out of this was that I'm going to buy a couple of extra buttons. I like the first set I got and although I can't physically compare them to the Happs, they seem authentic to me. |
