Is there a cheaper place??? (Trackballz)
« on: September 30, 2004, 09:43:59 pm »
Is there a cheaper place than HERE to get this trackball. With the usb/ps2 interface? I would get it from there, but they only have red translucent, and thats not what I want. Could some one link me to a cheaper one. But like I said, I definetaly want this trackball.

ebay.  They constantly have 3" trackballs for cheaper than that, with a lot of buy it now prices as well.  Some have ps2 or usb inputs already.  If not, get a $20 hacked mouse from oscar controls, and you'll still be under that price.
first off your and idiot

Man I love the internet, haha.

Is this what I should buy for the trackball from Oscars?

USB mouse w/ button harness $12.50

Or is that just a hacked mouse. I just want the harness to plug into the trackball. With the buttons wires also on the usb harness. Is this one the right one?

Trackball harness
To connect an arcade trackball to the  USB mouse interface $8

Isn't the imperial ps/2 with 3 buttons considerably cheaper than that?  I thought I had seen if for like $80?

The best place to get a Happ 3" trackball with interface is here.  I got the translucent blue and it works great.

Thanks for the info. I only found THIS one I liked on ebay, but I would much rather have the one you linked. Will some one please go outbid me. ;D Come on its only $45 for this one. I want the 3" translucent, with the harness.

Just retract your bid.  When you list why just say you thought that it was translucent or misunderstood the description.

That's what happened, right? ;)
