heh: Our company owns abundant science and technical power and advanced production technology, and has introduced advanced technologies and production equipments from abroad. http://www.made-in-china.com/products/show/premium/DAwMTY4MTcyN/zAwMDIwMTMxM/3/Electrical_Electronics_Switch_Pushbutton_Switch_(SDL-001).html |

I should say that the site linked is VERY broad. There's a lot of non-arcade and industrial stuff there, so don't be surprised if you search for "pushbuttons" and get some weird looking stuff. :) |

Found these "imitation" parts. :) Had to do some searching but it that difficult. |

Mmmm, take a look at my first fault in getting arcade controls: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=41573.0 Of couse this is only one example. As I already indicate in that thread, there is plenty decent quality stuff coming from Asia...but I would stick to the "brands". Suzo, Happ etc.. Think about it: these companies have served the arcade industry for years and years. Operators want things to last, a broken machine=no money. They don't carry rubbish. And yes, it does make a better game to not be irritated by clumsy controls....it's worth the money IMHO. |
| Ninja Supremacist:
So this experience happened only a few weeks ago? That is a valuable cautionary tale. I wonder though... is it more the fault of a dirtbag eBayer rather than the Chinese manufacturer? Or are you pretty sure it's the manufacturer? Granted, the enclosed leaf switch is a bit suspicious. |
