Just to clarify, my "he" referred to WestControls, not Mr. ArcadeScum.

I.e. - For $900, Westcontrols may not need six months and police action to ship like Mr. ArcadeScum did.

Not - For $900, Mr. ArcadeScum might have shipped it to you sooner.

But point taken about the pin . . .

Alright, I'm always one for giving 2nd chances so lets see what kind of price they/he comes up with for the repro unit. I hope they use a little lube this time.

Well, Atari's cost on the ENTIRE PANEL was just $110, and those were not made in house either, they were buying them from elsewhere.

I have no idea what these things are really worth but yeah-The West Controls version is higher than most would pay. But.....

That .pdf file was from 1983!!! I am reasonably sure pricing has probably changed slightly over the last 21 years and it's not really a fair comparison.
