You can get HAPP Competition buttons with Cherry switches for $1.49 each from either Terry (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=13718&item=6147208460&rd=1) on eBay or from Ponyboy same price, but different payment methods.

$1.50 eh?
i was hoping for better. Oh well
-
That's a really great price for that switch. And the more you order from Terry, it's a flat rate to ship them, just $3.85 Priority.
-
Occasionally he sells em at 1.35 but I'm not sure those come with the Cherry switches, would need to ask.
-
Slikstik has them for $1.40 each with Cherry microswitches. Min order of ten but sounds like you have that covered. I got ten of them a couple weeks ago along with several other items. If you are interested they also have some of the best prices on the Happ trackball.
Here is a link: http://www.slikstik.com/SearchResult.aspx?CategoryID=10

thats for the link but they kill the deal on shipping.
22.00 to ship the buttons, lol funny

Nothing. I was just trying to get em for cheaper than $1.50, which im finding out is not possible
-
Sure you can. They'll just be CRAP.
I bought some .99 buttons for my Arcade Classics cab, and they're *awful.* Takes a lot of force to actually push the button down. I'm going to replace them next time I place an order.
-
I guess that settles it then. Cant be playing with crap now
-
Tornado terry on ebay,end of line.
-
$0.75 for black button and microswitch (http://www.x-arcade.com/arcade_buttons.shtml)
-
noooo not X-Arcade! Dont do it!
-
First of all, if you're not an arcade "aficianado" (Spelling?), You'll be happy with X-Arcade stuff.
Just don't put them next to Happs stuff. You'll notice then...
noooo not X-Arcade! Dont do it!
-
the project that I need the black buttons for is a sub par project anyways, xarcade buttons may do quite nicely
-
Shame this auction (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=13718&item=6147828925&rd=1) isn't for more colors
1.20 each
-
man you guys are pinching for pennys huh? :P
-
Just trying to help, I buy my buttons from Terry.
-
when you gotta buy like 60 buttons, every penny counts.
-
60 buttons.... damn gotta see that CP
;D
-Goz
-
two projects, lol
-
Those X-Arcade buttons will do just fine. As was said by tmasman, you can't really tell the difference unless you set them side by side.
-
holy crap peale your new avatar has me looking at this thread like every 5 minutes :o
-
I'm just trying to gauge interest, but if I could sell Happ Comp buttons with cherry microswitches for 1.39 each would there be much interest?
-Goz
-
I think a lot of us would be interested.
-
I've ordered them from Happs on sale a couple of times in the last year or two for around .99 cents to $1.20 each. They'll have a new sale starting 2/1 so I'd wait a few days just to see. They've not had them on sale for awhile...so maybe it is time...
