Need Advise (Vancouver BC)
« on: January 26, 2005, 05:52:44 pm »
Hello,

I am in Vancouver BC and I have started building my arcade machine.  I would like some advise from people in Van who have built a machine before.  I wanna know where I can find the buttons and controls locally (if there're any stores selling Happ controls in Van).
Thank you.

Check ebay, there's 2 or 3 vendors selling stuff in Vancouver all the time.

Sorry, can't help you.
I'm in Vancouver, WA, USA.

I HAVE built a cab though.  ;D






That said, why do you have to buy locally?
The Real Bob Roberts will ship to Canada, as far as I know.
He's cheaper than Happs, at least in the States, and sells the same stuff.
